Stylesheet Codes / Re: [Stylesheet] Gingerbread Men
« on: November 30, 2011, 04:37:57 pm »
I really like this one, is there any way to make the background a little lighter in color?

Look for this in the css:

Code: [Select]
background: #000040 url("http://www.styleyourforum.com/data/178/css0.gif") top center no-repeat;

Change #000040 to the background color you want.

I read the announcement you made about the 3 boards you changed.    I can see two of the 3 as a Guest.   The one I can not see is "2) Facts We Learn About Pen Names Verses Actual Artists Names"     Have you double checked the Boards settings for the other two to make SURE you have Guests and Newbies unchecked for them?  Also you should uncheck "Regular Members" for those 3 Boards in the Boards settings.

To embed Youtube vids you need to use the "long link"
The video embedder does not like the youtube links that are like  "youtu.be"
So what you need to do is click the SHARE button at Youtube then click Options and put a checkmark in the box next to "long link".  Copy that link and paste it into a post and it'll embed fine

Although it might or might not be possible with a code, there isn't a code listed here that will do that.

No there aren't any options for "Posts since last visit"

General Support / Re: How Do You Lock a Board or Shut Down A board???
« on: November 21, 2011, 10:51:13 am »
To make sure we are on the same page with terminology -    when you say you want to "lock down the board" do you mean ONE Board in a Category or do you mean the entire forum so it cannot be used rigtht now?

If you mean the entire forum (and if you do have Admin access) then put it in Maintenance Mode.
Admin/Forum Settings/checkmark in Maintenance Mode/Save

If you mean one specific Board then go to Admin > Boards and modify that Board's settings and uncheck all membergroups so they cannot see that Board.

Personal note on my part:   Sounds like you and the Admin need to discuss how to handle issues on the forum.   Shutting the entire forum down and thereby punishing everyone seems abit rash.    You could easily if its REALLY necessary to do so,  do a short term ban on the offenders so they are not able to use the forum for a short time and those that are causing no problems can still use it and arent punished for the actions of a few.   Just my 2 cents

Q: Can I get a database backup?
A:  We can provide you a database backup for a fee of 50.00
     This should be only for those who have experience with this as we do not provide support for using the backup.
     You will need to seek advice for that via simplemachines.org

Sounds like its sporadic with some of them.    Tell them to clear their browser cache and see if it helps them.   You can also try running Maintenance (Recount all forum totals and statistics.)

I assume that if I create my own image or modify something from the net that I can just upload from say my desktop!!!

Upload it to someplace like Photobucket, Imageshack, Tinypic.   Then get the direct url from it and put it in the Logo Url box in Current THeme

You can replace where it says "CI Education " at the top left of your forum.     Admin > Current Theme > Logo Image url.    Put the direct link to your image there.    No html or bbcode -  just the direct image link.

General Support / Re: Theme Selector
« on: October 24, 2011, 09:47:31 pm »
1.   There isnt a way for members to select themes.   Only thing you could do would be to use one of the stylesheet swappers listed in the Codes Index     Not sure if the dropdown box one will work in an Ezblock or not but you can try that.

2.   Currently not a way to do meta tags and putting them into the header won't work.

3.  If you delete members posts via Maintenance or otherwise their post count will go down.   The only way around that would be to create a Recycle Bin under Admin > Boards > Settings.   Posts you delete would be moved to the Board you use as the Recycle Bin and their post count would not decrease.
