Text color issue with who is where block

New Member Joined: Jul 09, 2005 Posts: 4

I just installed you who is where block and it works fine, but with my theme (subBlack) you can barely see the text. Is there a way to change to color of the text?

Thanks,

Which who is where block (i.e. where did you download it)?

The color must be overridden in the block. If you have a color picker (e.g. Pixie), hover over the color of the text (unless it changes when you hover). Then look for the HTML color in the block and change it to #FFFFF or remove the color override so it uses the default color.

I downloaded Ravens Who is Where v1.2 from phpnukefiles.com

This is my block info:
$PHP_SELF = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'];
if (eregi("block-RWHWhoIsWhere.php",$PHP_SELF)) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}
global $cookie, $Default_Theme;
$theme = isset($cookie[9])&&!empty($cookie[9])?$cookie[9]:$Default_Theme;
if (!file_exists("themes/$theme/index.php")) $theme = $Default_Theme;
$content = "<iframe frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" src=\"modules/RWH_WhoIsWhere/index.php?refreshRate=$refreshRate&theme=$theme\" width=\"100%\" height=\"200\"><ilayer src=\"modules/RWH_WhoIsWhere/index.php?refreshRate=$refreshRate&theme=$theme\" width=\"100%\" height=\"200\"></ilayer></iframe>";
?>

I don't have Pixie or anything like that. So if you could tell me what to change here, that would be great. Is it the transparency line?? as I don't see any color codes here.

Thank You,

In this case, the theme passed as a parm to the module. Either a different theme is being passed as a parameter, or the color is overridden in the module. It's using an IFRAME to display whatever is displayed by the RWH_WhoIsWhere/index.php file. It could be that the color is set there. I'll check.

When I tried it on a theme demo site, it worked when subBlack was the default theme.

Preferences in site are set to subBlack for default theme.

Is there anything I can do or check to fix this, or maybe reinstall?

Thanks

In the wiw module, you have this code

Code:

$bodyTag = "<LINK REL=\"StyleSheet\" HREF=\"/themes/$theme/style/style.css\" TYPE=\"text/css\">";


$bodyTag .= "<style type=\"text/css\">body {background:none; allowtransparency;background-color: transparent}</style>";

It should be inheriting your style sheet. Are the color settings in your style.css file? If not, then you need to set a css override in the bodytag.

I am getting the same problem this person had, black text when the text needs to be white. All other block on the site sotvg.com are working fine.

I have de-activated the block and module for now, but if anyone can give me some help I would greatly appreciate it.

Also the user info block does not seem to work with PhPNuke 7.7

Both of these were downloaded here.

Thank you

To my knowledge the userinfo block works just fine. I have installed it on many 7.8 sites so if it's not working on 7.7 I don't know. And, saying it does not seem to work doesn't really tell us anything Smile

. Start another thread and detail what problems you are having.

The way I got mine to work was to change the font color in my windows config. I changed the font to red which changed the font in the block and now I can see it.
