However, the 'Homepage', 'Services', 'Section', 'BuddyPress', 'Design', and 'Extra' links don't work. I stay on the 'Featured Block' page when I click these other links. How can I fix this. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/blogsmu-several-questions#post-2303 Fri, 11 Feb 2011 16:17:09 +0000 tammie 2303@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hi there and welcome to BuddyDress wtwine. Ideally we'd prefer you to start a new thread for a new issue but lets see what we can do to assist you here.</p> <p>You can change the name in navigation however the actual functionality you are looking for is not built into BuddyPress. That is not saying you may not be able to do it though. There are going to be 3 routes open to you:</p> <p>1. Does there exist a plugin to do this: check out the extend section at buddypress.org<br /> 2. Can you find a snippet or information on who to do this as it's not theme related over at buddypress.org or another buddypress resource - unless you know coding and have time this may not be a good option<br /> 3. Is it worthwhile looking at a job board to get this done - we can recommend the job board at <a href="http://premium.wpmudev.org/" rel="nofollow">http://premium.wpmudev.org/</a> but there are many others out there which may get things done for you. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/blogsmu-several-questions#post-2302 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 23:30:16 +0000 wtwine 2302@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>I am a member of your site and pay a monthly membership<br /> fee and have downloaded the default Buddy press plugin to my wp site.<br /> I am planning on using the MU Blog Theme and<br /> I would like to know if I can change the group pages to read pro pages<br /> much like Face Book does with fan pages. My site is <a href="http://www.useapro.net" rel="nofollow">http://www.useapro.net</a><br /> and I'm building a social network of service professionals for home<br /> and life. If not, can you add another page like fan pages in face<br /> book? This way the professionals can have their pages public if they<br /> want to. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/blogs-mu-users-login#post-2030 Mon, 22 Nov 2010 17:27:37 +0000 sergio 2030@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Thanks Richie, it is working properly!!!</p> <p>Sergio </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/blogs-mu-users-login#post-2019 Mon, 22 Nov 2010 05:08:15 +0000 Anonymous 2019@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>hi sergio<br /> you need to go to the dashboard -&gt; pages -&gt; add new<br /> enter any title like members login etc and leave it blank and choose the right sidepanel templates <strong>Members Login</strong></p> <p>cheers </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/blogs-mu-users-login#post-2015 Sun, 21 Nov 2010 21:42:00 +0000 sergio 2015@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>I have just installed the theme Blogs Mu on my web site <a href="http://www.professioneinfermiere.net" rel="nofollow">http://www.professioneinfermiere.net</a>.

We'll get there! I understand this is all brand new.</p> <p>Were you able to watch the video that Tammie put together?<br /> <a href="http://buddydress.com/2010/06/firebug-installing-discovering-and-using-the-tutorial/" rel="nofollow">http://buddydress.com/2010/06/firebug-installing-discovering-and-using-the-tutorial/</a></p> <p>Once you've clicked "firebug" in the view menu, do you see a new panel open up at the bottom of your browser? At the top-left of this panel there's a little picture that looks like a bug. Directly beside it is an icon of an arrow. Click that arrow and then move your mouse over the part of the theme you want to change (like a text block that happens to be white). :D</p> <p>When you click on this part of the text the firebug panel below should automatically find it and highlight the code. You're going to want to look at the portion on the right-hand side of the panel. It is labeled "Style" at the top. This panel shows you the actual code (like the parts I've given you to input above). </p> <p>Look for a term that says "color: #FFFFFF". This is the hex value that tells the text to be a specific color. You can change this to whatever you like by looking for a hex chart through google. When you make a change here, the browser gives you a live preview of what it will look like. When you find something you like you'll need to copy the code into your style.css just like I had you do above.</p> <p>It may sound like a lot, but once you get familiar with this process you'll be customizing your code like a pro! </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1340 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 07:45:12 +0000 deejayefem 1340@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>i did not find the code. i did not know if i'm right in using firebug. i just open the editor of my account as admin then click firebug in the view menu of mozilla firefox. as i search the code in the css menu but i did not find it. i dont know if i am right. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1339 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 06:40:48 +0000 deejayefem 1339@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>thank you very much james. by the way can you give me example how to use firebug - just a little description. godbless. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1338 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 03:46:56 +0000 masonjames 1338@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hiya,</p> <p>Man, it's late here! I also just realized that some of the items you're looking to customize can be done through the Homepage and Design tabs under "Theme Options". Take a look there as well! </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1337 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 03:35:34 +0000 masonjames 1337@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hiya,</p> <p>To add the black nav bar back, simply delete the following from what I gave you earlier:<br /> <pre><code>#top-bg { background: none; }</code></pre> <p>There is no color behind the featured video/picture, so maybe you're seeing the border? You can get rid of that by adding the following lines to your style.css that we edited earlier:<br /> <pre><code>#intro-featured-img { border: none; }</code></pre> <p>Changing the text color so that it shows up on the new white background is done in the same way as the previous changes. You need to grab firebug and start using it! You can easily find out exactly what you need through this tool. Then you'll be much better able to pick the exact colos for text and backgrounds that you want!</p> <p>Here's a hint: To change the fonts you're going to want to look for a value called "color". The color is written as a hex value. Google is your friend here.<br /> here's a sample of what it might look like:<br /> #right-panel p.headtext {<br /> color: #FF0000;<br /> }</p> <p>Good luck! :D </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1335 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 02:19:22 +0000 deejayefem 1335@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>i would like also to add my query (i hope its ok). since the background is white, i can not anymore see the intro header text and intro post text because the text is white in color. how to change the color of the text? please help. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1334 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 02:03:18 +0000 deejayefem 1334@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>also for the image or video dimension, can i change the background as white. since i have seen black shadow or black color beneath my photo slideshows. </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1333 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 01:59:11 +0000 deejayefem 1333@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>thank you james. you are great! i have change the background and the image dimension. </p> <p>by the way as i mentioned in my query in my early discussion, i want it to remain black the nav bar up to the top. could you help me please? </p> http://buddydress.com/forums/topic/changing-the-header-to-white-background#post-1332 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 01:33:56 +0000 masonjames 1332@http://buddydress.com/forums/ <p>Hiya,</p> <p>Alright, to remove all background options from the header you'll want to add the following to the very bottom of your child's style.css:<br /> <pre><code>#header { background-image: none; } #header-gfx-inner { background-image: none; } #top-bg { background: none; }</code></pre> <p>By removing the backgrounds you are left with the default white.</p> <p>As for the featured header image/video dimmensions we can change this via CSS as well.
