ISSUE SUMMARY: Just wondering if there is an easy way to retain front page image after log-in, since there is an easy way to turn it off.
I am using a custom.css in the Dark theme folder, so it would be good to just add some code to that if possible.
Tried a module but it is not really what I am after, because I like the way the image is below the community nav bar, and included in the overall container.

thanx


STEPS TO REPLICATE:
1 go to front page - see image
2 log-in
3 go back to home page
4 image is not displayed
5

HI, Kym.

Thank you for contacting us.
Frontpage image is loaded from different layout file - file for guests.
It's not loaded for logged in users.
Changing that is not a matter of css (as this is only styling). You will need to customize php layout file to achieve that.
The best option here would be insert new module position right below toolbar.

Copy this file:

ROOT/components/com_community/templates/jomsocial/layouts/frontpage/base.php

to:

ROOT/templates/your-template/html/com_community/layouts/frontpage (if you don't have those folders - feel free to create them)

Edit file and add this code;

<div class="joms-module__wrapper"><?php $this->renderModules('js_my_front_top'); ?></div>
<div class="joms-module__wrapper--stacked"><?php $this->renderModules('js_my_front_top_stacked'); ?></div>

Thanx for your help.

I am sure I did everything correctly, but I am also sure I did something wrong.

Not able to get the new module position to display as yet ?

HI, Kym.

Just do a test - put xxx in line 27, refresh page. If it appears then you fond right spot.
Then just paste code I mentioned, assign module and make sure that modules are allowed to be displayed on certain page (menu item assignment or set to display on ALL pages).

Thanx again

So - module is set to homepage menu item + it is published in the new module position.

Created the new directories - com_community/layouts/frontpage - and put base.php in it.

Have attached file screenshot for you to have a look.

scratching my head now

HI, Kym.

You did everything properly... it seems you have some kind of caching enabled on your site so changes are not visible.
Try to disable it.

G'day Michael

Thanx again !

I have the joomla system cache plug-in disabled + Globally it is also disabled, and I have cleared the cache from Admin.

HI, Kym.

No, I'm trying to say that you have some 3rd party caching installed in Joomla!.
I checked Joomla! caching on the first place... an dit was disabled... but cache was populated each time page was reloaded.
I took a look into your extensions... but didn't find it.
You know what you installed in your system better than me :)
All I know that method I provided works 100% (tested on my dev site)... but in your case old version of the file is loaded regardless changes in override or even core.

Hi Michael

Thanx again for your help.

I disabled JFB and now I have an x in position line 27.

I understand what you mean about the cache, It just won't delete ? Even with specific cache cleaning plug-in ?

It is a very clean install, trying to keep everything standard, so am hoping it will not take too long to find the problem.

cheers
