Question Toggler button that expands the login area not showing open or close details

12 years 2 months ago - 12 years 2 months ago #1 by Roboff
I set up my Kunena forum (version 1.7.1) and everything seems to be working great--for the most part. However the toggler button that expands the login area (button is to the right of the nav menu) is not showing the open and close states. Please see the attached image (toggler button is the orange box). The button IS functioning as it should, it just doesn't show the details (border and - or +).

I went into the Kunena CSS to change the color of the heading text to match my site. I did a search for the hex color and changed the blue color to green, and it was after that when I noticed the issue. But I don't know if it's related or not...

In Firebug I see that the open/close states are done with a gif (so I don't see that changing the colors would affect that). In Firebug when I inspect the element and mouse over the text highlighted below, I get this message "failed to upload the given URL."

#Kunena a.open {
background: url(""../images/expand.gif"") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
display: block;
height: 15px;
width: 15px;

Website template is Cloudbase 2.0

Website: ZenLivingYoga.com

I am also including the configuration report as requested--attached as a notepad .txt file. Hope that works. (Moderator's comment: No, it doesn't work because we can't read BBcode; readability issue fixed)

Thanks so much for the help!

See many problems reported to us with Cloudbase templates: >>> here <<<

Perhaps one of those topics may help? :unsure: I suspect that the fix for this particular problem is to read read msg #1 of If you are having problems with Kunena, please read this first . Because you are using, essentially, a Rockettheme template, it's probably a case of setting Build Title Spans = Off.

I actually did read that article about Cloudbase templates, and, in fact, I couldn't even get Kunena to work at all until I did what it said...which was to turn Build Title Spans = Off. Magically, everything seemed to work then... or so I thought. I haven't run into any other issues on the forum at all and I have been testing it out pretty thoroughly over the last few days since installing.

Likely this issue relates to the 'title spans off' setting. For some reason, I didn't even think of that. :blush: Initially I thought it had to do with the CSS changes I made, but then I realized it couldn't be that because the toggle details were gifs. I probably just didn't notice they were missing until that point.

Anyway, thanks for the response. It clues me in that it is probably template related.

If the Cloudbase template is making a complete mess of things, you could try adding the following lines to the end of your site template CSS file:
Code:
#Kunena a.open { background: url("../images/expand.gif") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; display: block; height: 15px; width: 15px; } #Kunena a.close { background: url("../images/shrink.gif") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; display: block; height: 15px; width: 15px; }

Good idea. I will try that. I have a testing site that has Kunena installed with a Cloudbase template. I'll try it there first.

Thanks again for the suggestions!

It certainly does seem to work in Firebug, but when I make the same change in the site CSS and save the changes, it reverts back to &quot again.

Very frustrating...

Clear your cash or use F5 to refresh your browser. A lot of times you might have some type of cache plugin that doesn't allow the change to take effect right away.

I did try adding the code as suggested, but unfortunately it didn't fix the problem. Thanks for the suggestion though. I appreciate any suggestions. :)

I have read all through the #1 and #2 Wiki articles, but they relate in much of the content to K1.6. I thought I read somewhere that K1.7 already had updated Mootools. In any case, I don't have "System - Mootools Upgrade" in my Plug-in Manager (no reference to Mootools at all).

So, I understand that this issue relates to the Cloudbase 2.0 template. I suppose I am stuck with this issue unless CloudAccess is willing/able to give me some help. :(

Interestingly, I have a test Joomla site that has the same Cloudbase template on it and the same version of Kunena. It is not experiencing the same issue. Can't account for that. However, I did update this test site already to J2.5 (after Kunena installation though) and I'm not experiencing any issues with Kunena that I've been able to identify so far.

Good suggestion. I just learned recently about the F5 refresh. However, issue still remains after refresh.
