De.scription and Message

Hi
Can someone tell me where to edit the background color of the blocks background when you do not use the background image. The Blue horizontal type image. When I remove the pics in the blcok setup the background color is a deep grey or brown.

Does anyone have the area to edit this color.

Much Thanks
Brian

I would need to see your site to get the color but I can tell you a quick way to do these kinds of things.

If you use firefox it's easy because there is an extension that has a color picker right on the bottom of the browser, if not, youll need to take a screen shot of the page, then open it in photoshop or something and see what the #?????? hex color is for what you want to change.

Then when you figure out what the color is for the area that you want to change, you can go open your theme's css file ( yourtheme.css) and do a search/find for that hex color you found.

Now sometimes there is several instances of the same color so you might want to keep finding them all throughout the css and make sure which one is the right one. In most places you can push F3 button to skip to the next instance of the color

anyways the point is, find the color you want to change, find the color in the css, change the color to something else or add a background. It may take a couple of times if you have never done it before, but it's pretty self explanatory

If you cant seem to figure it out, show me a screenshot of the color you want to change and your theme's css file and I'll show you which one it is

Thanks,
This is the block with the grey background.
If you look at the site online http://standontherock.com/forum/portal.php You will see I have it up with the background image.
I am just not sure where to edit the backgound color.

Thanks
Brian

Hello,

If you look in the .css file for Integra2,

Find:
[color=red]/* Main table cell colours and backgrounds */
td.row1 {
background-color]

and remove the second line, then change the hex code to whatever color you like.

I believe that is how I changed mine.
If this is not correct, I apologize.

Christian

the welcome block is a simple html block. to display the default background, which is the .css class "row1" go to
acp/IMPortal/blocks managment/"Your Portal Page"/welcome to integramod/edit

choose "show BG" = "yes"

if you want to use another color add it to a table inside the block

Code: Select all
<table>   <tr>     <td>      YOUR BLOCK DATA         </td>   </tr></table>


edit "#000000" with your color choice since "#000000" = black

Thanks for the tips!!!

I am trying to run a swf file in the block which I have an issue.
If I put into a block I need to use html for the color to work. On bb code the td bgcolor=#000000 disappears when saved.
Code: Select all
<table>   <tr>     <td>Block  </td>   </tr> </table>



When I use the swf file I have to use bb code to see the swf. When save with html the color shows but the swf is not visible.

Code: Select all
<table>   <tr>     <td>  [align=center][flash width=600 height=375:nlvchrmb]http://standontherock.com/forum/origiwjsaver.swf[/flash:nlvchrmb][/align:nlvchrmb]     </td>   </tr> </table>


This is now the way it is on the http://www.standontherock.com main page.

Does anyone know how to save the block with html that will show the swf?

Thanks as always.
Birna
