    Re: Use Custom Icons in Premium Member Badges
    Brian Lenz
    Hi Brisotti, The code should go into your Display Settings control panel in the Custom CSS box. You need to make sure you use the permission circle's group ID instead of "premium" if it's not a premium permission group. For your Patrocinador circle, that numeric ID is 350043526109298115, which you can see in the URL when editing the permission circle's details. I changed your selector to .h-member-badge-350043526109298115, which fixed the problem (you also had replaced the 'h' with "webkits"...

    Lovely post! We've been using our Crowdstack platform to simultaneously live stream Facebook Live and Zoom Webinar events directly into the platform using the embed code. It's quite effective and another place for them to catch the livestream!

    Re: Free "Let's Encrypt" Security For Your Community

    Neil, we run banner ads in our Hoopla forum served from an outfit called "Adpeeps.com." When we first made the Hoopla change to https, the banners did not appear. The browser would not display a mix of "secure" and "non-secure" content. All I had to do was go into the Adpeeps code and add the "s" where appropriate and all was OK. Adpeeps now generates code that contains "https" so the problem has solved itself on both ends. External LINKS appeared just fine, even though the link was going to...

    Lighting a candle for the dearly departed Activity Stream There are certain things about you that will be missed: 1. You announced New Premium Members and Newly Registered Members. You were a not-so-subtle encouragement to get others to "join in" too. You gave instant recognition to newbies. You gave community leaders a convenient place to see and follow up on newbies listed there. ( Where do they go now? ) You were a visible way to generate a sense of "community" -- which is something that...

    Thank you Ted. Is there a CSS code that I can use for the background of the widget to be a color instead of the background image of the theme? If so, would this be placed in the customize widget or the theme?

    Hello, I still cannot get this to work! This is what I'm posting into the " Custom Code For HEAD Section": div#horizontalNavMenuSecondaryWrapper { width:100%; } #menuWhitespaceTd .horizontalMenuWhitespace { display:none; } table.horizontalMenu { margin:auto; width:300px; } This code shows up ABOVE my forum banner, on all pages. Am I missing something??? Thank you in advance for all help!

    Hi jpmfan, The "Custom Code For HEAD Section" requires HTML, but what you've pasted there is CSS. You should put that into the Custom CSS section in your theme instead (just beneath where you've got it right now). Hope that helps! Brian

    Neil, I'll add to this. Instead of the magnifying glass in the header, I have the word "SEARCH" spelled out. Makes it more noticeable, IMO. Here is the code: /* turn icon into "SEARCH" in top header*/ .h-search i.fa { font: inherit; -webkit-font-smoothing: inherit; -moz-osx-font-smoothing: inherit; } .h-search i.fa-fw { width: auto; } .h-search i.fa-search:before { content: "Search"; }

    Neil, I genuinely appreciate what you have done here. CSS is a little beyond my knowledge envelope and I really don't understand where to find the things to change, as you have done here. I have used a couple of your custom CSS codes in our site, with a nice improvement in its appearance. I have run into one problem, however. I have placed this code into our site: .h-ubb-directory-forum-box { background-color:#ffffff;border:1px solid #555555;padding:15px; } .h-ubb-topic-list-box {...

    Hi, Ted. I just installed UNICODE 9.0 fonts so I could use this symbol. And later I found your post above. I went to Font Awesome https://fontawesome.com/icons/power-off?style=solid and used the instructions that said to use this code < i class = " fas fa-power-off " > </ i > When I do that, I get and trying the same code here in this message the html editor in this windows strips out the code and it won't render.

    Let me see if I can get this to work in the wysiwyg editor: This is a test Which definitely works. I think that the issue you are having is that you are trying to use the fas class, which I'm not sure is available in Font Awesome 4.7 (the version we are currently using in Crowdstack). We have plans to upgrade this in an upcoming release. Next, since the WYSIWYG does not have Font Awesome icon support built directly into it you will need to use the "Source code" option on the far right to...

    Ted, as a follow up to this question about headers and footers - is this something we can ask for a quote on to have your team make our header and footer responsive for us? I just remember the code conflicts we had to deal with when we tried to do our own code.

    Hi jpmfan, Yep, you can do that with custom CSS. Just add this code to the Custom CSS section on the Display Settings page in your control panel: #overviewPostingOptionsButtonWrapper {display:none;} Hope that helps, Brian

    Re: The Miscellaneous UI Release
    neil
    Always appreciate your releases but disappointed you've stopped giving them creative names. We implemented your suggested CSS code to suppress the new Post Content button. Our Reason: at our site it would likely invite too many improperly located or duplicate topics. I do like the idea of encouraging posts, however, so I'm wondering about a widget that features the current "hot topic" (as determined by activity/views/whatever) and has a 'reply now' button to catch interest on the home page.

    Community building is a challenge for many...whether you're a blogger or apparently a chicken farmerette. It's been suggested to me I'm a natural at building community; not exactly sure why...perhaps the natural ebullience? HEH. Had to use that word. I like this post. Short and to the point.

    200 members is great but how many are free and how many are paying? What business model was used as far as pricing was concerned? The standard $25 a year? Or a larger monthly fee etc? I never watched the video, so sorry if it is mentioned there - 3am here I am too tired.

    Hey Danny! I just thought I'd pipe in on this as I got the email notification that you'd responded. The video is before I had set up premium memberships and more focuses on things that I had learned about bringing new members to the site in only a couple of months and keeping them engaged. I've since set it up and do have maybe 5 paying members currently (at the standard annual rate) but I really operate the site for the love of sharing my interests with others and learning from one another...

    I know this is old but it caught my eye (well both of them actually. My take on this is, you do indeed tread a fine line between creating the right kind of platform for a community. Engaging them in the creation is one way. Allowing people to have their input is very good but everyone has a different opinion so you have to start with an adaptive base. The big question is how do you get them in the first place? Of the millions of people out there who do you reach out to with your invites. I...

    Thanks for this tip, Rosemary. The last time I checked, Pinterest also uses the "Title " info for what shows up as the description on a pin. It would be nice to have an easier way (other than accessing the HTML code) to add a data-pin-description. (Sheesh. Your customers are always wanting more!)

    If you are one of those hyper-productive people using ActiveWords There's a step where you have to Edit the Forked Post . It took only a couple of minutes to automate that with an ActiveWord. If you're already using ActiveWords, here is the script for an ActiveWord called "fade box" <div class="fade-box"> {control down}{v}{control up}{control down}{enter}{control up} <p class="read-more"><a class="button" href="#">Read More.

    MENU ITEM LINKS OPEN in a NEW WINDOW or TAB

    There are certain menu items in our Crowdstack Top Menu Bar that link off-site, so we would like them to open in a new browser window or tab. The "Edit Menu Item" feature within the admin area does not provide a place to enter the target="_blank" code. I figured out how to do this with some JavaScript, but I had top-level technical help to do it, which might not be available to everyone. If you could incorporate code to provide the means to open a menu link in a new window or tab, similar to...

    Hey Rich... long time! How are things over at OGR? Below is the pertinent custom CSS. I post it with caveats: Caveat 1: We aren't using the "cards" mode/version of Cstack. Like you, we're using what I believe used to be called "version 1" or the legacy format, (i.e. no cards enabled). Caveat 2: We're not running any third-party features (code). If someone is, then our width adjustment may create unintended (but not necessarily unfixable) changes. Caveat 3: Over the years, we've created quite...
