Oh fantastic, thank you!!!!      How did you get to that bit from the firebug?

It looks lovely in white 

For the benefit of the thread, I've attached an "after" screenshot.  I love it

Sabrinova, do you have everything sorted now?

Sabrinova, do you have everything sorted now?

Heehee I'm a proper little tweaker aren't I   

Yes I think that's everything, I can't think of anything else I want to fiddle with now. I'm currently sitting here just admiring my beautiful little forum - thank you

Hi, a very nice theme Crip. Is it possible to make the text for the news a little larger? Thank you.

[Crip]

Sure ,

css/index.css Find and change Font-size:

Code Select Expand


#news {
position: absolute;
float: left;
clear: both;
top: 10.5em;
left: 1.5em;
text-align: left;
font-size: 11px;       <<===========   /* SEE , CHANGE IT HERE */
color: #FFF;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
width: 50%;
}
#news a:link, #news a:visited {
color: #e3e3e3;
}
#news a:hover {
color: #FAFAFA;
text-decoration: underline;
}

Thank you Crip. And also can I move the position of the news up a bit, it does not all appear in ipad/iphone. Need to be a little higher.

Thank you.

[Crip]

Yes ,
In the same code above ([top:9em;]) to your liking.

Hi, what is the maximum size the logo can be please? Thank you.

[simon36]

Hi, got it, must be smaller than the header at 140. Thanks.

[simon36]

Hi, could I replace the wood with a graphic that spans the width of the forum? Thanks for your help.

[simon36]

Hi, ignore my question above, I've worked it out 

[steveraven]

I have set up two news items for demo purposes.  Item number 1: "Test news item", item number 2: "Blah blah blah".  I now have four browsers installed on my computer so have tried it on all of them myself.  On Firefox, Chrome and Opera, the two news items fade and alternate as they should, but on IE9, they are both shown together statically, no fade, no movement.  If I revert to the default theme, then they do alternate and fade in IE also.  I attach a screenshot of the two news items in IE.

Okay try this: background-color: is needed i think..?
css/index.css Find:

Code Select Expand


/* the newsfader */
#newsfader
{
margin: 0 2px;
}
#smfFadeScroller
{
text-align: center;
padding: 0 2em;
overflow: auto;
margin: 1em 0;
color: #575757; /* shouldn't be shorthand style due to a JS bug in IE! */
}


Try Like:

Code Select Expand


/* the newsfader */
#newsfader
{
margin: 0 2px;
}
#smfFadeScroller
{
        background-color: #e3e3e3;  <========try this?=========>
text-align: center;
padding: 0 2em;
overflow: auto;
margin: 1em 0;
color: #575757; /* shouldn't be shorthand style due to a JS bug in IE! */
}


Hi, I've been following this issue on the newsfader with great interest to see if the issue with IE could be resolved, and I must say, super solution!

I've now slipped the code into my own forum and its all systems go regarding newsfader functionality, but I have one more question to ask if I may - instead of an actual colour for the background (#e3e3e3 in this case), is it possible to set the background to transparent?

[Chalky]

I set mine to white in the end, #ffffff and it still works fab

[simon36]

Hi, would there be any chance of a graphic, similar to the search area box with the nice rounded corners but bigger to go in the 'userarea' in the header. I have put a different graphic in place of the wood and now it's a little hard to read the text.

A black box there would make the text stand out nicely.

Many thanks.

Also I wonder if you could possibly do a 'Poll' icon. The SMF theme is easy to miss in the list of threads.

IPB have a great one that just says 'POLL' on it. Could you possibly do one in keeping with your great theme?

Thanks in advance
