    In progress Transparent Forum Problems

    Post by ResonatingOctave April 3rd 2015, 5:51 pm

    Technical Details

    Forum version : phpBB3
    Position : Administrator
    Concerned browser(s) : Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari, Other
    Who the problem concerns : All members
    When the problem appeared : About a week ago
    Forum link : http://gladiatoracademy.forumcroatian.com/

    Description of problem

    So, on this forum, we have had the problem with our background. We had it set to be transparent and for a good long while the forum was fine. Now, if we are to put on a transparent background for some reason, everything else looks fine, up until you get to the Who Is Online? section of the forum. For some reason, that ends up having the background of whatever image we use. We took down the background for now because it was too unpleasing to the eye. If anyone could help, much would be appreciated.

    send me a screenshot of the problem and i can probably fix it 

    Code:

    body {
       font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
       color: #5c758c;
       background-color: #1a1a1a;
       background-image: url(add your background here);
       background-attachment: fixed;
       font-size: 10px;
       height: auto;
       padding: 10px 0px;
    filter:alpha(opacity=90);}
    throw this in your css and it should work fine everything there can be changed

    We don't want that to have that background we are using, but rather have a box around it, so its easier to read.

    Hello @ResonatingOctave,

    We can add a container for this by making a small modification to the templates. Go to Administration Panel > Display > Templates > General > open the template title index_body Edit

    Find :
    Code:
    <!-- BEGIN disable_viewonline -->

       <!-- BEGIN switch_viewonline_link -->
       <div class="h3"><a href="{U_VIEWONLINE}" rel="nofollow">{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}</a></div>
       <!-- END switch_viewonline_link -->

       <!-- BEGIN switch_viewonline_nolink -->
       <div class="h3">{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}</div>
       <!-- END switch_viewonline_nolink -->

    <img src="{L_ONLINE_IMG}" id="i_whosonline" alt="{L_WHO_IS_ONLINE}" class="img-whois" />
    <p>{TOTAL_USERS_ONLINE}<br />
    {RECORD_USERS}

    <br />
    {LOGGED_IN_USER_LIST}

    {L_ONLINE_USERS}

    Hello,
    What Ange is referring to is the templates, this is a Founder ONLY tool, so make sure your logged in as the Founder, or you won't see it.

    Thank you very much for all the help. I have now been able to apply the changes thanks to brandon_g's information on it being an owner account action, as well as Ange Tuteur's code. The issue has been fixed, and is now solved.
