Not sure what's gone on, but this has just randomly appeared like so

Only thing I've done is removed the css from the other topic. Added it back but it wasn't the issue. Uninstalled the plugin and re-installed again.

The title etc will prob be in a different plugin then this one, I have added the messages in this update along with a couple more things

Excellent, the new settings work very well, very impressed mate.

Are you able to show the registering message on the Sign Up: Choose Product page too? Just under the Would you like to purchase any of these products while registering?

Thanks

Small bug found, and I didn't realise it was the plugin, I thought it was my crap colour skills while editing the skin. With this plugin enabled it adds a background colour to

.ipsTabs_item:not(.ipsTabs_activeItem)
    background-color: #4e5b62;

This also adds a background colour to the tabs on the theme settings. Which also changes the font.

There is a setting to set member titles in the ACP member settings already you can set them custom there, or am I mistaken and you mean something else?

Sorry, I meant are you able to add character limits to it?

A header message? I suppose I could add messages across the whole board and not just the header that's all fine

Have a look in the market place for the example

Header Message - The old one in the market place doesn't work any more, and it was very useful. Bloke hasn't been on since 2015.
 

New Feature - but not sure if this would be better suited to your user profile plugin.

I'd like to be able to set member titles to groups, a setting that enables min and max length characters, as we know there is an issue with long titles messing up the look of the authorpane.

Just seen another topic which reminded me of a plugin I use to use.

What about a bump button, which updates posts, which also updates on the front of the forums, but doesn't actually post anything it just moved the whole topic to the top of the listing. Settings should include, limit time between bumps (Bump every 5 days, minutes etc), which groups can do it. The button should display next to the start new topic or reply button or replace it.

Much appreciated!

There's nothing coming to mind, if you can create themes then I have ideas

Thanks for the hard work put into the plugins mate!

Notification colors? I will move them in header tab  as forum/zebra its well organized now, im not sure what beta version are you using but i have changed many things around

mmm, all settings are very well organized even with different title colors so you can find the names easy, cant do anything more than that 

 

I have added title font size and padding settings also sidebar width if thats what you mean  

Awww

Is there not a way where you can use tabs or within the settings are just like you did with the header tab where all the settings relating to that are there. All setting relation to categories are in another tab, similar to how you can style them but add settings like the above screen shot there.

While you've tried to lay it out as easy as you can, I'm still finding it hard to find what I needed due to different names of classes.

To me (and other people with limited knowledge) wouldn't have a clue what DATA ITEM BACKGROUND: Zebra mean? (I have since found it but I had to search google). But putting a title and description and putting them all together under one setting would be better. I believe some items/colours are shared throughout the theme.

For instance I was trying to change the colour of the drop down list on the userbar I think that's the elUserLink_menu ? But I tried making it all grey/white (like it is in the 4.1 version) but have the navigation bar a different colour.

I've tried making the theme light, whites, greys and blues. But for the life of me I cannot find the settings for something like this:

Because I haven't a clue what I'm looking for, and I'll admit I get frustrated and give up and go back to it later to try again.

I hope that makes sense and if I'm appearing or coming across as thick, please do tell me haha.

Just a suggestion, is there anyway you can group customisations?

I want to change the userbar nav and the drop down list, could these be grouped together under a title. And then another setting for forum/zebra colours with section titles grouped together under another title. At the moment I'm finding that I'm editing the user nav bar, but I have to go to another section to edit the user drop down menu list in another section.

Having a long page full of different colours I'm finding difficult to get around and find exactly what I want to change.

Without sounding negative, I'm not overly keen on the 4.2 update of the skin. Everything is just big and taking up much more screen space then I think is needed, and that using 1080p reso.

Be good if we could have more control over the font size through out the theme.

I will look into the page header and clock icon, The total stats is this

the plugin is set to show it by default, its not actually part of IPS, If you disable it then it won't show, I am going to set all to off by default because I set a few things to yes as default

Yeah I was testing it, but it doesn't calculate the correct numbers

Afternoon,

Another bug found, when using 'Remove items from the page header' it also removes the Members can choose (Default forum view) buttons.

2nd bug, when Font-Awesome icon next to time/date is enabled, the clock icon is added to the calendar dates which looks odd and distorts, I don't think it should be added to calendar dates personally.

Under Forums & categories you have an option to switch on Show total stats? - But this is already shown on the categories, so I don't see why it's duplicated? I understand it adds all the forums in each category but it doesn't always calculate the correct numbers and sometimes shows 0 posts.

Make sure the vimeo link is the DIRECT LINK to the video.

I will add a way so it will do it automatically in a updated version, If you have any ideas for more settings etc let me know and I will see if I can manage it

I've been asking my staff for ideas new or old etc etc.

For now add

.cForumRow.ipsBox.ipsSpacer_bottom[data-categoryid="1"] {
    margin-top: 10px;
}

to your custom.css file, you need to replace the number 1 with the catID of the forum whats at the top, ie the Staff Room, Click staff room and the url will show the ID for example

http://localhost/ips42/index.php?/forum/1-a-test-category/

1 is the ID

Worked like a charm, thank you

When removing the words forums and the start new topic button, there is no gap/padding this means that the announcements and the category title look as one. This also does it with extra widgets. (4.2 Beta5a)

Thanks, and purchased. The only issue I found is that some of the settings are already on i.e the font and I've had to turn them off (for the install it's better to keep them off and then turn the on). Other than that, a great plugin!

I am thinking of adding a setting to change the font size as well for it maybe shrink it a bit if needed

That's a good shout!

Why IPS didn't leave this in I don't know.

Outdone yourself again mate, well done.

Not sure if it's the image or the padding, but could the padding be added on each side to bring them in a little.

Also, will it go to the next line for longer name and more categories?

Sounds great! Let's hope it can be done.

Could just change the font size of it but then it might be hard to be able to touch it will depend the phone and screen size, it could put them too close together or as you say as just a icon I suppose, I will get editing and see what I come up with

Don't trouble yourself to much with it. It's just a personal thing, I prefer seeing the breadcrumb so I can move quickly between categories etc. It might be a real pain to get right....

I'm not sure how useful the unread content and mark site read are (me personally I don't use them), when you have the all activity button in the bar next to the search button. I guess you could add them as icons in the bar?

What do you think?

like this?

Exactly yes, I did do a screenshot too... I forgot to add it.

Can it be done, also can it be shown on a smaller screen like a mobile?

A big one for me which I've asked a couple of people is recoding the breadcrumb into the mobile/tablet layout. As it's hidden automatically, and we have to use the back buttons which I find most annoying.

This is the css to add it back, but it's not formatted correctly and nor does it show the home icon and the '>' icon with spaces

@media screen and (max-width: 979px){.ipsApp_front .ipsBreadcrumb {display: block !important}}

Can you re-arrange the user menu? If I wanted to move items up and down 'content' / 'settings'? (Just thinking for things to add in case they might be useful).

Under fonts, could you add 'Upload Font', this way we can add custom fonts which are not Google fonts etc.

Here's a quick mock up of what I meant with the navbar on top of the slider

I bet it does, would need a lot of customization to set it perfect not sure why ips hided on mobiles and tablets anyways there must a reason   

Well thanks for trying anyway, appreciate it!
