hey Umair,

In firefox you would use firebug >>> http://getfirebug.com/ I use this as well but got use to using Insect Element in IE. Ross suggested me to use these tools to help me in my work. They both work great!

UPDATE: As for hashtags...yes they do work in Oxwall but only in the "Photo" area  "FREE" as of right now. If you want it to work in the "NEWSFEED" then that's going to cost you...its a plugin >>http://www.oxwall.org/store/item/829 I have not yet used this but looks like the reviews are good!

Glad I could help...keep it coming!

Thanks wilson. You have been very helpful. What about re-sharing post/updates within oxwall? Do not you think it is a basic thing to have a share button? I think like "search bar", share button might be part of next update.

hey Umair

Do you mean share content button? Well Oxwall does have that plugin for FREE actually>>>http://www.oxwall.org/store/item/805 it works well! If your talking about here in the forum they kind of do...its called permalink...see the #22 (link) from your last comment and #23 after my last comment. You can use that and it will take the person to you last comment.

Ok we have to stay on the topic...forum rules...lol...true thoe! if you have a another issue go ahead start a new post. This one has been answered.

I am trying to keep the background image on the sign_in page from repeating. After studying this thread I opened ow_system_plugins/base/views/components/sign_in.html


In the Source window, background-repeat is set to no-repeat. I am using the White theme, but that shouldn't matter.


Can you help me stop the repeating of the background image? Thank you!


<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><title></title><style type="text/css">body  {background-image: url('https://1968class.com/ow_userfiles/themes/theme_image_18.png);   background-attachment: scroll;   background-repeat: no-repeat;   background-size: 100%;   height: 100%;   width: 100%;   background-position: center top }</style></head><body><div class="ow_sign_in_wrap"><h2>{$siteName}</h2>{form name=&#39;sign-in&#39;}<div class="clearfix">

Why not simply do it in the custom css for the theme in the admin panel "admin/appearance/customize. Choose the "css" tab, and enter your custom css for the theme in the empty box below the base css view?

body.base_sign_in > .ow_page_wrap {
    background-attachment: fixed;
    background-image: url("your image url");
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 100% 100%;
    padding-top: 0;
}

If you just want to do it in the code, you could simply add the <style> tags at the top of the page.
<style>
body.base_sign_in > .ow_page_wrap {
    background-attachment: fixed;
    background-image: url("your image url");
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 100% 100%;
    padding-top: 0;
}
</style>

Thank you very much! I used your suggestion for adding custom css for the theme in the admin panel. That should survive upgrades.


The one change I needed to make to your code was inserting .ow as shown here:

body.ow.base_sign_in > .ow_page_wrap   {


Right-click and Inspect was my friend in tracking down the element name.
