NCD M Press 2 banner problem

ogormanron — Sun, 19 May 2013 18:29:47 +0000

Sorry for what I'm sure is really stupid question. I have mac OSX 10.8.3 using rapid weaver 5.3.1 and NCD M Press 2 and RWmt lite. I am trying to change the banner image. I opened RWmt and selected the correct theme and image, and then I dragged a jpg image onto the placeholder header1.jpg. However, the placeholder never disappears and I've been unable to make it do so. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

How do 3rd-party themes work?

TimArends — Wed, 15 May 2013 02:45:50 +0000

One of the well-known features of RapidWeaver is that you can change the theme of your site at any time with the click of a button. While this creates a certain uniformity in the themes, it does allow for easily changing one's mind.

Is it the same way with 3rd-party themes? Can you switch themes easily or does doing so mess up the formatting of your site? Or does it vary depending on which 3rd party theme you use?

Parallaxis on iPad

Olaf — Mon, 13 May 2013 14:18:26 +0000

Hey.
I tried to set up a rw-site based on „Parallaxis-Theme“ of Archetypon.
Everything looks fine at a desktop-PC ...

If I take a look on my iPad all the background-images I put in Parallaxis were horizontal displaced.
Please have a look at http://www.giesick.de/wertvolleworte

If you look to the demo-page of Archetypon, there are the same problems with these pictures, (those were set to visible on mobile devices).

Does anybody has an idea for placing a background-image to be visible on iPad in this theme?

Thanks

Canvas theme backgrounds

meikyo — Wed, 01 May 2013 17:41:47 +0000

Hi all, I'm a newbie hoping someone can help me with this.

I'm using Nick Cates' Canvas theme and have modified background images using his recommended css:
body{ background-image: url(%resource(MyImage.jpg)%); }

The new images show up just fine in preview mode in Rapidweaver. But now that the site is published (using Javabean), all I get is a grey background.

Any ideas? ThanksQ

Photographos VI iPhone iPad

mshelter — Wed, 08 May 2013 11:52:54 +0000

I am using Photographos VI, and my website displays fine on desktop and iPad in landscape orientation. But when viewed on an iPad in portrait mode or an iPhone in either mode, the sidebar menu disappears, and is replaced by a single MENU link at the top of the page. Is there a way to prevent this from happening, so the page would display as it does on the desktop when viewed on an iPhone or iPad in portrait mode?

Expanding and building Menus

EricB — Thu, 02 May 2013 21:56:35 +0000

I am new, so I have not delved into the build project yet. I have a simple question about the menu on Halogen and or Reservations themes. How expandable are their menus - I believe some are three level navigation. Is it easy to build a larger menu with many pages? The next question would be a pull down menu on certain pages. Will I need a stack, or plug in - is it called Megamenu? I can't remember. Thanks for any advice...before I start building.

Stacks not displaying properly in Mondrian theme

manofdogz — Thu, 02 May 2013 16:40:19 +0000

New site - first cut just published at: www.landregistrynow.co.uk. 2 display problems on the home page which only occur on published site despite looking fine in RW preview.

1) Header image is in a 2 column stack, text to the right in 2nd column. in most browsers a grey line appears above it. in some, as well as the grey line, the text from the text stack below gets mixed in with it. I'm assuming the grey line is a kind of overlap. I'm using the upper and lower borders for lower text stack to create a dividing line in the same colour.

2) the 3 pop up stacks will not centre with the text stacks above them.

As I say, it looks perfect in all RW previews - tried with Chrome, Safari, Firefox. But once published the problems occur.

Have republished all files and played a little with margins / padding but still the problem occurs

Attachment screen grab shows how it looks in preview. Any ideas?

Mirage display issues ie9 and iPhone

manofdogz — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 18:52:17 +0000

I have published first cut of new site using Mirage 2.3.1 (link: http://www.danevalleygarage.co.uk ) and am having the following display issues:

In most browsers, the content background (light grey) continues above the header image and the title and slogan appear in this area.

However on iphone, ie9 and ie10, the grey content area is not visible above the header being replaced by the theme background (in this case dark blue striped).

As the original title was dark blue it became virtually impossible to see against the theme background so I changed the Title to White as a temporary workaround

This works in iphone and i.e.10. However in ie9, the Title resolutely stays blue!

Any help much appreciated

Hi,

If you take a look at Http://www.workerslounge.de with your PC/MAC it works fine, but on iOS iPad the menue floats over the text, while on iPhone there is no menue at all. Help?

Nick Cates Design: BOREAL v1.1.5

paulb — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 01:31:03 +0000

I'm using BOREAL v1.1.5. The Bullet/Number Lists are now displayed after updating to the latest version, but they are now truncating when you exceed 1 or more numbers or letters.

1. Item
2. Item
3. Item
4. Item
5. Item
6. Item
7. Item
8. Item
9. Item
0. Item
1. Item
2. Item
3. Item...

Another example: http://www.ecsdav.com/solutions/streaming/tricaster/index.html

It also occurs on Lists that are formatted as A. B. C. D. or I. II. III...

I asked Tech Support at Nick Cates Design and here's the response I got.

"Hello,
Please see the screenshot. Not sure what the issue is but I do see that it is doing just 1-9 then restarting at 0. Make sure you select all desired list items then go to Format > List and apply it all at once to the items.

I've tried their suggestion and it still doesn't publish or export correctly. It looks fine in edit mode but not in Preview or once I've published/export it.

They closed my case and didn't offer any other solutions and I'm still having the problem.

XXL-r Theme Background Images not showing

wooee — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 15:46:57 +0000

I am new to Rapidweaver and these forums so forgive me if this is not the place to seek help with my problem. I created a site using Henk Vrieselaar's XXL-r theme and uploaded it to my host but the background images are not showing up. The site is www.nyssrs.com. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

CARBON doesn't seem to work.

carina — Sat, 23 Jun 2012 07:19:38 +0000

So far I am very disappointed with the CARBON theme. It looks great on the simulated version, but it is almost impossible to use. The instructions are very limited without enough explanation. If the massive banner doesn't work, (which it doesn't for me and there seem to be many others out there), then there aren't many other options in the theme to do anything else.

I have worked on many themes but since I am staring at a black screen I am not very impressed.

Setting max size for Fluid Images in MultiTheme theme

RandyChev — Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:27:32 +0000

I'm finally updating my site using RapidWeaver and I'm using MultiTheme's PanelsPro2. I just about have the site ready to go live but I'm having a problem with one page. Its a styled text page with sets of two images side by side. On testing I found that the images were not responsive on mobile devises so I used the intelligent altTAG: "image " which makes the images responsive.

The problem however is now the images want to fill the whole page on the desktop browsers rather than stay medium sized and side by side. I could fix this in an image editor by "fusing" the two images together but they still seem to fill the complete page horizontally; I'd like to keep it to 80%. Also I'd rather make it work with individual files so it would be easy to add or change images as I see fit. (I'm starting to believe I won't be able to avoid the "fusing" step if I want to keep the images side by side on all platforms but then they may be too small to see at ~160 pixels per photo anyway.... I digress!)

I've tried all sorts of scaling settings in the image inspector but using the "image " altTAG, the CSS is overriding this info. I've also looked for the CSS that performs all this fluid image voodoo in hopes of modifying it but I can't find a file that seems to handle images.

Any help would be appreciated.

NCD Canvas - Drop-Down-Menu Color

Hansjoerg — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 17:18:54 +0000

Hi there,

I made a website with the NCD Canvas theme. Now my client doesn't like the 3D-menu because the visitors of the page told her, that it is too laborious always to make two clicks to get on the next site. Therefore I want to use the drop-down-menu. The problem is, that I cannot change the color of the menu. It is white and not remarkable enough.

Do you know how I can use some code to change this?

Thank you all for your efforts to help me.

Best wishes
Hansjoerg

Parallaxis

Pebble5 — Sat, 16 Mar 2013 04:54:57 +0000

Hello,

I am using a test background image (size 1600x1000) but as the previous sizes I tried also did not work neither with the recommended size by the developer of 1600x1200.

As you can see in the link bellow only half of the image shows on RW once uploaded, hence I am unable to add texts, videos, etc... without a full view in editing and preview.

src="http://cdn.vanillaforums.com/realmacsoftware.vanillaforums.com/FileUpload/ab/54b95629129858dcc60314784d7836.png" />

Is anyone working with the Theme Parallaxis that can help me or tell me how did you edit and preview in full image background and, also, which size did you use for the full background image?

Any and all help appreciated. Thank you.

Best,

Is there a way to make a theme 'unresponsive'?

neoben — Sat, 16 Mar 2013 20:05:36 +0000

Howdy...

I have used a great new theme (Cataract) to create my website at www.PrimeImageMedia.com, however I don't really like the way it shows up on small screens like my phone...

Is there a way I can make it 'unresponsive' so that it just shows up like a desktop theme? I realize this is counter-intuitive, but if there's a way to mess with the css a little to get it to always just use the desktop-mode, that'd make my day!

Thanks for your help!

Best,

Ben

Venture theme font size issue after links

moun10addict — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 15:59:45 +0000

Hi there,

I'm working with a client to finalize his site, but I'm having a strange issue I've never seen before. Anytime a link is added within a paragraph, the font size of the link itself and the text following the link are smaller than the rest of the paragraph.

You can view an example here:
www.missionaryjimwhite.com/test/

I've looked around in the CSS and tried everything I can think of to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks so much!

Closure Theme Banner Problems

nookiedog — Fri, 08 Mar 2013 15:43:05 +0000

I'm currently using the Closure theme and I'm experiencing a problem with the sidebar title when viewing the site in a narrow browser window or on a mobile devise. The problem is that I have the 'Sidebar Title Placement' set to 'In Banner High' and when viewing the responsive site as described above, the sidebar title overlaps page content and the sidebar content extends over the top of the sidebar.

The effect isn't as bad if I set it to 'In Banner Low' but I'd like to keep it as 'In Banner High' is possible.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cre4my - EC6 background

Tobias Escher — Sun, 03 Mar 2013 18:50:39 +0000

Hi!
I'm working on the next major update to my website and in the course of doing that want to "update" the site from Cr3amy to Cre4my.
The old version had a feature to set the background image of EC6 (post content). Cre4my seems to be missing that. Is there any way to still be able to insert a background image in this area? Other than that the theme is perfect

Thanks!

XXL-r extraContent 7

Rubin — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 19:10:52 +0000

Hello Henk

I am trying to set the extraContent7 with no right/left margins. Playing with negative margins didn't work, I set a z-index at 10000 then I was able to see a difference with left margin (set to 0) but I can't make the right side of extraContent7 exactly on top of the container, there is still a 1 or 2px margin.

No MENU in NCD Carbon Home Page

First I'd like to thank Aaron at NCD for helping me with a problem I had with the Carbon theme on iPhones.

Now for my issue, I have a web site where I want to use Carbon but I do not want the links to other pages on the home page. I want to have two buttons, one red that exits the site and the other green which takes you to a page that has the MENU and links to all the other pages.

Cheers,

NCD Canvas + Doobox Montage = menu error

heatherallen — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 08:50:33 +0000

Morning!

I'd be grateful for any suggestions as to how to overcome a menu issue withe the above theme and stack combination.

I've created two pages to demonstrate the issue:

This one uses Joe Workan fluid image stacks to display the photos, and there is no problem with the 3D menu:

hahawebdesign.co.uk/gallery.html

This one uses Doobox Montage stack, and when you click on the menu expand button, it opens, but the text links 'disappear'

hahawebdesign.co.uk/gallery_montage.html

I'd much prefer to use the Montage stack, so your help is greatly appreciated!

Best wishes, Heather

Nick Cates 'Carbon' theme - responsive images

Grant Abt — Sat, 16 Feb 2013 15:41:33 +0000

Hi,

I use Nick Cates 'Carbon' theme on my website. It's 'responsive' and adjusts the text and images on each page to fit the size of screen. The theme was working as expected up until a recent upgrade (either Rapidweaver or the theme - can't work out which). Now the images on certain pages don't resize to fit the iPhone screen, where before they were. I've upgraded to the latest theme version and also contacted Nick Cates for support. They suggested installing the latest version (which I have) but could offer no further help.

After upgrading the theme I republished all files, but the problem still exists.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

JSSnow in XXL-r Theme

Ushila — Thu, 06 Dec 2012 12:13:41 +0000

Hi there,

is there any way to use JSSnow Stack from RapidIdeas in XXL-r Theme?
- When I add a background image (I added Henks snippet in header) and JSSnow Stack the snow does not work.
- When I add JSSnow Stack without the background-image and in XXL-r (master-style) the Menue disappears, but the snow works...

I appreciate your help! Since this is a page about the polar circle, I´d love to have more snow than now with Ed Brenners snowstack, which I use now: uschi-erlewein.de/was/polarkreis.html

Dear RapidWeaver users,
I have just created a new personal website with the NCD - Boreal Theme. I really like the design and functions it offers. Although, after publishing, the Mobile Version of my website does not work at all. The Menu bar disappears after a second and there is no possiblity to navigate through the site. The website is www.katja-stefan.com. Does anybody has an idea what did I wrong and why the navbar does not show up on any mobile device?
Thank you!
