welcome to the community

Please how can i remove the welcome to the community text with the flash banner that inlud JOIN...?

Thank

You can find the "Welcome to the community" in the language settings. Just search for Welcome to and place a check mark in the Apply button. Edit the string and replace or remove what you want.

rock on, i was working on my pictures.

Crazy Concept Called Search

and then as if it were magic.

Thanks ! Chris and DosDawg man i was searching in the serach field at the bottom of the site LOL never mind maybe too much stoned tonight lol

I think he is trying to find out how to remove the whole block including the revolving photos (the panoramic pics of horses, dolphins, people, etc). I would like to remove this as well. When I try to edit the string, it does not remove the whole block. Any suggestions on how to remove the whole thing?

@godofwar, you can go into your Admin Panel>Settings>Basic Settings and under promo put a mark in the Use Custom HTML Block and save it. (You do not have to put any HTML code in there)

Chris

For some reason it won't let me mark it. It is stuck on "use image reloader" and won't let the other circle get marked. I erased the default pics in the image reloader....does that have something to do with this?

No, and if you are doing this in IE, try it with FF instead. Seems to have issues editing with IE sometimes.

Chris

I was actually using FF when this problem happened. Should I use IE?

Sure why not :)

Chris

If one works and the other don't, sure.

Anyhoo, maybe someone can refresh my memory here. Wasn't this a bug in one of the RC versions?

Yeah Deano, I do remember this from the beat/RC timeframe. I thought it was an issue with IE and editing some of settings within the admin panel. FF seemed to be the fix, but this is a first hearing it the other way around..lol

Chris

This is one of your poste mate : amd talking about this !

If your goal is to remove the semi-transparent bar at the bottom of the promo area that has the text "Welcome to the community" and the Join and Logon buttons, then a simple CSS change is all that is needed.

File templates/base/css/index.css

Find #indexPhotoLabel at around line 81 and add this css.

display: none;

Sorry, just edited to change the line number. Line 81, not 91.

I forgot to mention. It's not a flash file, it's just a simple <DIV> that overlays the promo area.

This is me talking here :

i can't manage to get it work i want to know where exactly i have to put the display: none;

This is the code can you tell me where about thanks :

#indexPhotoLabel  {
height:82px;
line-height:82px;
position:absolute;
bottom:0px;
width:100%;
z-index:1;
background:transparent url(../images/opSplash.png) repeat-x scroll left top;
}

Wow, it actually worked in IE but not in FF. That solved the problem. Thanks a lot guys.

I know that. But it's in the code you pasted. Are you asking where in between the brackets { } it is to be placed? If so, it does not matter where in between the brackets { } it goes.

So to clarify, i am asking where did you get the code?

From the index.css file from the default template, or the index.css file in your custom template?

Because if your custom template has a index.css file with the #indexPhotoLabel section, then that is where the display:none; is suppose to go.

Actually if you allow your members to switch templates, then it should be put in both templates.

OH ok that's what i wanted to know am using a custom template and it has the index.css and it has that code so i will give it a try thanks for your quick answer back .

Oh, one other thing. There might be more than one section labeled #indexPhotoLabel

The one it needs to go in is the one that contains the background image information.

It worked Fine man , thank you very much again :)
