My pleasure Kim...I have listed an issue with the Search bar and a fix for it when using XF and v1.1 B4...not sure if it is the right fix but it will do for the time being if anyone else needs it until XF 1.1 goes gold and DXF gets updated when Kim can free herself from her busy Aussie lifestyle
Kim, were you thinking of doing anything special with DXF for XF1.1, like a redesign? It doesn't matter to me, the redesign that is because there is, very little wrong with the current version that a few minor CSS adjustments won't cure. That's all Happy customer here to leave as is, unless you were thinking of a design shift?
I would be happy for an updated 1.1 version without any changes, but i would welcome any improvements too, its an awesome style.
Due to current time constraints there won't be any kind of redesign, but I will endeavour to get the DXF theme updated to 1.1 Cannot give time-frames at this stage as I am literally swamped right now.
To help make updating the style a bit easier if you can point out areas that need to be updated it would help greatly.
100% cool Kim. Sure thing, only too glad to help. Updating mine live soon when a few other things are sorted but will post up the EXTRA.css changes in a while, as I'm sure others will.
Be sure to take a backup (copy / paste to a .txt file) of what is already in your EXTRA.css template in case you mess it up This is written so that you can easily take this out again, should you want to. This is what I have so far. List is by no means exhaustive - add to EXTRA.css Code: /* XF v1.1.0 EXTRA.css Updates Start Here */ /* Margin 10px for avatar in Warning creation */ .warningHeader { margin: 10px !important; } /* NavTabs Arrow Down */ .navTabs .navTab.PopupClosed:hover .SplitCtrl { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/widgets/nav_menu_gadget.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; background-position: center; } /* Account */ .navTabs .navTab.PopupClosed .arrowWidget { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/widgets/circle-arrow-down-light.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; background-position: center; } /* RSS Global Feed */ .footerLinks a.globalFeed { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/widgets/feed-14.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; } /* Search Bar */ #QuickSearch .formPopup { background-color:transparent; } #QuickSearch .textCtrl { border: 1px solid #0a2837; border-radius: 10px; box-shadow: inset 0px 2px 5px #7b7f84; } #QuickSearch.active { background: #fdfbf8 !important; } #QuickSearch { right: 10px; top: -30px; background-color: transparent; } /* Useful Searches */ .Popup .arrowWidget { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/widgets/circle-arrow-down.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; } .PopupOpen .arrowWidget { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/widgets/circle-arrow-up.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; } /* NavTabs Arrow Down */ .navTabs .navTab.PopupClosed:hover .SplitCtrl { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/widgets/7px-arrow-down.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; background-position: center; } /* Editor */ .xenForoSkin .mce_xenforo_smilies span.mceAction { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/editor/smilie.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent !important; } .xenForoSkin span.mce_xenforo_code { background: url("styles/dxf/xenforo/editor/code.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent !important; } /* XF v1.1.0 EXTRA.css Updates End Here */
Looks great! VeryChristmassy with the snow! You could also have changed the node icon image paths to be what they werein 1.0.x instead of making the sprit sheet, but either way works just fine
After talking to you on Twitter the other day, I decided to see about fixing it. You shamed me into doing it! Thanks, Kim. When I saw how well DXF-Red worked with my logo, I knew I had to use it. Your gradients really make the T-Bucket in my logo pop. From vB, through IPB and onto XenForo, we've always had a default, red style. And DXF-Red simply knocks it out of the park. I figured changing the paths would work, but since my graphics abilities are next to nil, I viewed making the sprite sheet as a challenge. And if that's the direction XenForo is heading, that was encouragement to do it with the sprite sheet. When in Xenforo, and all that, aye?
Does this, with changes in the code above, still work on 1.1.2? Sorry am trying to find a theme from this site I could use.
