Socialize Template - Compatibilities

10 years 8 months ago

With our current template we ran into jquery problems .... Thus we have to consider switching to a different template.

Here are our questions:

1. Can the color behind the logo in the top section be changed (preferably as an override - so that updates won't destroy the changes)?

2. Are there any known jquery issues with this template? The failure on our current template is with JEvents - a pretty common component.

Thanks for any replies and shared experience.

Hi, Andreas.

1. Sure you can change that. Just add your styling to custom.css file located in css folder (create it if you don't have it already). This file will be not overwritten during upgrade.

2. Socialize template is mainly used along with JomSocial so most of issues could arise from JomSocial scripts... rather. Socialize uses T3 framework and no customized js jQuery scripts.

You could open new thread and describe JomSocial vs JEvents script issues. Our developrs will take a look at it and/or contact with JEvents developer to solve them together.

Thanks Michal,

on the basis of your answer I have now bought Socialize. ;-)

It would save me a lot of searching (I am not a programmer....you are) if you could tell me the css command line needed to change the background color behind the logo. (as I assume I am not the only one - you might even consider adding this to your otherwise well written documentation).

Oh, and while I am at it... ;-) How would I change the logo size???

Thanks for your patience.

Hi, Andreas.

Good chose! :) I'm sure you'll be not disappointed ;)
I moved your thread from "Pre-Sales questions" to "Socialize template" category.
Now, please edit your first post and add administrator credentials to your site as I need to see your site to point you directly to files.

Hi, Andreas.

To make logo bigger add this code:

.logo .logo-image a {
width: auto;
height: auto;
}

to ROOT/templates/socialize/css/custom.css (if you don't have custom.css file, feel free to create it.

You want to change background color under logo... you mean only under logo at a whole horizontal stripe where logo is located?

If whole horizontal strip:
.t3-header {
background: #444 !important;
}

Also add it to custom.css

Just replace #444 with any other color hex. you can generate color hex here: www.colorpicker.com/

If only under logo:
.logo .logo-image a {
background: #444 !important;
padding: 3px !important;
}

Just replace #444 with any other color hex. you can generate color hex here: www.colorpicker.com/

Thanks for all your help. Great service!

If I could ask for your patience again....
The top-header (JS Community Bar) - when "orange" is chosen - doesn't provide enough contrast. Formfields and background - all look black.

How can I customize the background color of either the bar or the form fields?
(I tried a few things - but didn't work it out)

Hi, Andreas.

Oh, that shouldn't be a problem ;)
But I can't login to your site. Could you edit your first post and check site credentials?

Thanks Michal,

I didn't think you needed access, as it should be straightforward - I naively thought - a similar change as for the background behind the logo you helped me with already...

Anyway, our development site has moved "one step closer to completion" ;-) And I gave you access for that as well - by editing the data in the first post. Hope that is correct.

Thanks

Andreas

HI, Andreas.

Yes, I don't need and admin access this time. But still need to be logged in to see what you want to change. I don't know what version of JomSocial or Socialize you have. And version differs a bit in architecture and class names. Additionally I use a kind of "live changes" to see if my code works... that's why I need to see area I want to change. Frontend access will be enough ;)

I am back to work on my project after some changes and restarts.....

Currently apart from the iSEO problem with hyphenated words in keywords-links, reported in the iSEO support, I also notice that

Sidebar1 modules - meant to be on the left (here: "Zielgruppen") have moved to sidebar2 position, i.e. to the right.

However, where sidebar1 is meant to be there is an open space no - i.e. there would be room for sidebar1 .

Hi, Andreas.

Uninstall and install again JomSocial toolbar for Socialzie template module. This will fix that issue.

Also after long time, don't open your old threads but open new one.
