My site is at http://www.breadsecrets.com/forum - I'm trying to make the colours and design match the main site at http://www.breadsecrets.com and so far I've only managed to remove the rounded corners from the main header bar and turn it brown - both via horrible hacks (renaming the corner images and putting an inline style in overall_header.html). Editing colours.css and using the theme editor in the ACP only seem to work sporadically (yes, I am purging the cache on the ACP and doing ctrl f5 in the browser). Which sections of which files should I be editing to get all the blue bits to be the various shades of brown that I want them?
Another problem -this is with this forum rather than the BB software: in firefox, when I log in I get the "successfully logged in" message, then it returns me to the board index but logs me out at the same time, so I can't post. I've removed my saved passwords from firefox and tried the "log me in automatically each visit box" both checked and unchecked. Any suggestions (including which forum I should post this in if there's somewhere appropriate?)
Thanks in advance,
- guy

Re: Struggling with colours
Have a look at:
styles/breadsecrets_style/theme/images/bg_list.gif
styles/breadsecrets_style/theme/images/gradient.gif
.navbar in colours.css (#cadceb) for the blue navigation bars.
li.row:hover in colours.css (#F6F4D0) for the yellow hover in forumlist.

li.row:hover in colours.css (#F6F4D0) for the yellow hover in forumlist.

Re: Struggling with colours
Many thanks. However ... looking at http://www.breadsecrets.com/forum/style ... olours.css I see
.navbar {
background-color: #b0986a;
}
.forabg {
background-color: #b0986a;
which is what I want, but they're still blue even after purging the cache and ctrl-f5, trying in a different browser, etc. Is that not how it looks at your end?
The yellow hover bg is OK, thanks.

Re: Struggling with colours
Sorted, thanks - what I needed was the refresh link on the themes tab rather than the purge cache button on the general tab.camm15h wrote:Looks okay here.
Thanks again for your help.

Re: Struggling with colours
This same thing started happening to me in the last day or so. I ended up switching to IE, and it worked fine. I am not sure why Firefox wouldn't let me log in here, but with IE Tab, I was able to log in.guysnape wrote:Another problem -this is with this forum rather than the BB software: in firefox, when I log in I get the "successfully logged in" message, then it returns me to the board index but logs me out at the same time, so I can't post.
