Need Help Fixing Background

Newbie Joined: Jul 26, 2005 Posts: 14

Hello,

I know I posted this in another thread but, I thought it migh help if I just started a new thread on this. For my website the MetOpen Home Page displays wight for the articles, but it matches my theme for the feature article. I can't quite figure out why.

I put in $bgcolor2 in the following code:

Code:

global $bgcolor, $bgcolor1, $bgcolor4;

But that didn't work. Is there something I need to change in my theme.

All help is greatly appreciated.

You're right that didn't fully fix the problem. I'll post the solution a little later today.

I recieved the file, but unfortunetly it did not work. I downloaded MetOpen HomePage 1.0 and that is fine so I guess for now I will just work with that one. Thanks for all of your help.

I guess there is still no hope for the background color? Crying or Very sad

Add an extra background color to your theme CSS and try adding that to the global variables to see what happens.

I think i solved this issue. It will be in the next release.

thank you very much. That solved the problem. I have one more question though. I uploaded the new index and it fixed the background, but on top of the feature article I see this:

Code:

hhbg#0D0E0E.

how would I get rid of that.

Just search for hhbg#0D0E and delete that line.

Double check the file you edited, you must have inserted that somwehere recently.
If it was to follow my suggection regarding adding another variable to the CSS file, double check the syntax by looking at the other examples in that file.

define("_BGCOLOR","");//Default is blank. this overrides your theme background color for tips and features.

How would I change that to not override my theme? If that is the correct place to do it?
