Hello,

I read the topic trail. I added the 3 lines at the end of my css/template "beez_20" file as below:

And it didn't remove the profile box from the top. Something that I am not doing right? thx.

Which file, specifically, did you change? I can't see this changes rule on your website. Use Firebug for Firefox to see what CSS files are being loaded.

You also have not published your Kunena menu (maybe that's the way you want it ... I don't know).

Hi,

I read your article and the mention of firebug. However, I use a Mac and have Safari and prefer not to install firefox but if I must, then I must.

They way I update the template CSS file was: from Joomla Admistration Extensions\template manager\templates\beez_20\Edit css/template.css

See pic below.



THanks!

I'm not familiar with Safari (I don't use a Mac) but there are probably developer tools that you can use with it ( developer.apple.com/technologies/safari/developer-tools.html ). So, if you're more comfortable using Safari with those tools, then use them. Firebug is a tool that's used with Firefox. Google Chrome has it's own tools set and so does Internet Explorer. it doesn't matter.

When I use Firebug I do not see the template that you referred to loaded by your webpage. That's what you need to address. You need to add the necessary CSS overrides to whatever CSS files are loaded. That's what we're talking about on the FAQ page (see the FAQs tab on the Kunena menu at the top of this page).

The forum here at www.kunena.org is a community-driven, self-help resource. Self-help means just that. On the other hand, we understand that some people are also not equipped with many skills associated with webcraft that many of us have taken years to acquire (and I'm not saying that I'm an expert, by any means) but if you can't help yourself there are also plenty of other ways that you can obtain that help ... although it may mean that you have to pay someone else to do it. Our main task here it to show you ways that you can make Kunena work. If you don't like the standard template, the standard features that come "out of the box", that's a different question and, ultimately, that's something you have to deal with on your own terms.

Thank you for all your help. I am going to look in the Mac tools if not, I will use firebug. Could you be so kind and point me where I can get the instructions on doing an FTP connection? I had a bit of hard time finding the instructions. Thanks again!
