Bamboo,

How can I change the dashed borders to either grooved or a pic file that draws the border?

I looked at the less files - lots of changes ( I did a test changing some of the dashed borders to grooved ones but the compilation hung after I added the changed code to custom.less in the less directory - could be that I added it wrong: all I did was paste the code I wanted changed and changed dash to groove).

Also lots of changes to css files.

Any ideas?

Also, what's this gap between grid wraps? See pic

Hi Jonathan,

Is it the area marked by the rectangle?
My eyes aren't the best - perhaps add a bigger pic?

Paul,

The area I' referring to is the white gap between the tow wrap areas. But, it seems to be a padding area that is needed when the background is a grunge style pic as apposed to a "plain" texture one.

The rectangle was put there to draw one's eye yo the white area.

Sorry for my unclarity.

Hi

If you change the

.blue-grunge .area-inner {padding-top: 60px;} does that reduce the area?

Cheers

Paul,

I used .area-wrap.blue-texture { margin-top: 60px; } and put the 60 to 0. I can make the white go away but I was interested in the "why" to see if I have to change each gap that shows up. Looks like I do.

Still interested in my first request: changing the dashed border lines to something else without changing each one I encounter, which can be a lot.

Thanks for your quick reply.

Hi Jonathan

If you add

.zen-spotlight {
border-bottom: 0;
}

Does that get rid of the bulk of the styling?

Cheers

Not really. But still needs to be used on the path to change all dashed lines.

Probably need to change them as I use them.

Another issue: I can't get, under menu assignment in the zgf4 framework backend, menu assignment/toggle selection to work. Two different machines (windows 7 and 8.1) and two different templates (ecolife and venture). I can select the menu items and select or deslect individually. The buttons don't work.

Is there something I need to set? They used to work but I forget under what release.

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Do you have the latest template versions installed?

Cheers
Paul

Paul,

Using ecolife 1.3.0 which contains the latest version of zgf4. All other modules and plugins are up to date as well. As is Joomla - 3.4.0.

I work to keep all software up to date, keeping, at least, the previous version available in case the new version has issues.

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Have you re-saved since updating?
the template updates to take need to have a save/re-compile after update

Cheers
Paul

Paul,

I have three templates that make up my site: one for the front page, one for my profile page and one for all other pages (mine and joomla's).

I work on the front page as my main template and have, after updates, made several changes that caused a "compiling less to css" message and the template has been saved message. I save all templates after I make changes or it's done automatically.

I don't see a run less compiler button (except the "compile and save theme" button, which I used but don't remember if it was right after the update) but that happens when I make several different types of changes.

Is this in reference to "changing the dashed line" request? I take it that there is no less code that covers all dashed lines so it would be "easy" to make a change to less code in the custom.less file and compile. I tried that approach by finding the code in less files and pasting it in the custom.less file and then compiling but process hung. I'm probably not doing it right. More study on my part.

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Sorry I wasn't very precise - when you save it also compiles Less to css if its applicable - this was in regard to buttons

Cheers
Paul
