The image slide box does not seem to functioning correctly can you take a look at it please.

 

 

 

thanks

I think your customerized CSS doesn't have the required CSS. It's general bad idea to replace the bulit-in css with your own since you end up losing all the feaures that are new built-in css provides.

 I didnt put any CSS to the Slide box.  I only modified what was in the edit window.

 

 

I believe you checked "Replace the predefined base theme template?" in Admin > Site > Templates -> Default.css. It means whatever you defined in the textbox will be used for your site. We upgraded the bulit-in predefined default.css to have the css required for the new features like Slide box. But you won't have those in your customized css. That's why you see the slidebox doesn't work right. If you uncheck the box, Default.css will have the required css for slidebox and it will work. Generally we don't recommend to check "Replace the predefined base theme template?" box.

In an earlier post we were working on why the CSS that was being placed at the bottom of the default.css template was not overwriting an existing CSS.  You had me copy everything and hit replace the predefined template.

 

is what i got out of that. is there something else i should do?

Yes, basically you got the snapshot of what the default.css was at that time. We are adding more to Default.css to support new features but your customized css won't have these. You have two options. 1) Uncheck "Replace the predefined base theme template?". 2) Uncheck "Replace the predefined base theme template?" and then find out the new css to support new features. Copy it over to your customize css and check "Replace the predefined base theme template?" again. If you choose to do the second, you might have to do this from time to time to merge the new css that is supporting new features.

 I tried that and the site went to a server application error

Looks like you need to clean up Default.skin when you uncheck that box. Please take a look again.

 so I have it switched back....but when i put the CSS that i have modified over the past it does not take effect on the site. Its like it is not reading the updates i have made to the template default.css

 

Your local browser is caching CSS files. Use "Crtl -F5" to refresh those.

 Tried that....and on other computers..
