Later when I wanted to re-recreate it, and saved it, unfurtunately it no longer shows in that theme. If I change the them to another, then it shows; what is going on and how can I get it back in the Facebook like theme. It's probably a simple fix, and hope the theme was made by your foundation. Please let me know. Thanks. Jake Jaccard, Web Tender. BTW, I changed the Header File to reflect our use and needs. Besides, we don't want to get in trouble with Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg.

I used the free theme, "The New Facebook" - I had to remove one of the link buttons because the place it was taking the visitor was under construction, so instead of just killing the link in the button, I deleted it.

Please explain how to "enable dev mode" - I tried that in config.php in includes, and that did not work for me. Hmmm, I wonder what I am doing wrong.
This system is fairly easy to do a website using oxwall, however you need to be more specific when talking to non-programmers or people with L.D. issues. (me) ha ha. Thanks.

Thank you Ross for all your help!
by the way, I learned that a member was having a registration issue because he was using his email address as a user name like Facebook does. Is there some way we can allow email addresses in User names? It would probably settle 50% of the issues with logging in for these folks. Any again, Thanks.

I tried to register an account using my email address to test whether I could use it or not, and I get the notice "please fill out the form properly" or something like that. I know FB does, because I sign in with my email. I will try logging into my OXWALL and see if I can.
Thanks,
Jake

Jake, this is a custom code modification to use an e-mail in the username field. As a username is used in the URL it can cause issues, as the special characters will be transformed into mnemonics, and some browsers can't handle them properly.

Ross/Tammy... I decided to just forget this issue, and tell my future users to NOT use the email as a username. I know that some sites ask only for email addresses for username, but this is not an issue - once i make a statement in the Registration area to NOT use their email as a username.
Thanks,
Jake
