I have changed the default text colour to white '.KIDE_default_text { color: white }' to fit in with my black template.. This works fine in the small chat box, but when I open it up using the world button, text that was white previously becomes black, and any that was black becomes white

Can you tell me what I need to change please..

There are two css files for componente and module, so you have to change it in both.

- mod_kide/css/style.css
- com_kide/assets/css/style.css

OK, all done thank you very much

I have changed the default text colour to white '.KIDE_default_text { color: white }' in both CSS files to fit in with my black template and the text is still black.

If this can't be fixed, can I get a previous version somehow?

In kide admin > preferences. Set the default color for each group

In the css, search #txt and add:
#txt { background-color: black; }

I have tested your web and I don't know why the messages are not saved... is the cache on?

In the beginning, I installed the latest version (v0.7.7) over a previous one. After I did, the shoutbox had changed. The text in the large area where the messages are had changed from white to black and was not visible against a black background. New messages were being posted, but you just couldn't see them. I edited the two css files as advised:

from:

'.KIDE_default_text { color: black }'

to:

'.KIDE_default_text { color: white }'

I emptied the cache and the text remained black. I uninstalled the shoutbox and re-installed the new version. After I changed: '.KIDE_default_text { color: ***** }' in the new install from black to white in both css files as above the text was finally white.

You answered my next question before I could ask it.
How to change the text typing box from white to black so the new white text would be visible:

In the css, search #txt and add:
#txt { background-color: black; }

I did what you said and it worked.

I set it as follows in both of the style.css files:

#txt {
background-color: black;
width: 80%;
height: 80px
}

I have two remaining concerns. If there is no post in the shoutbox for a month, instead of reading 'Last message 1 month', it reads 'Last message 1 mouth'. Can you tell me how to correct this?

Also the sound icon previously kept changing from green to red (on to off) by itself. I'm hoping this is resolved by installing the new version. Perhaps it is related to cache cleaning. I'm not sure.

The last thing I would like to say is that I have tried others and the Kide shoutbox is by far the best one that I know of for Joomla based websites. I tried AJAX Shoutbox for example and it is an insane spam magnet. Almost from the moment I installed it, it was flooded with porn spam even when my stats said I had not had any visitors to the site.

Thank you for your help and thank you for all your hard work.

Hi kmk,

I have fixed the error in language (will be in the next version). To fix it manually, in:
{joomla}/languages/en-GB/en-GB.com_kide.ini

Change:


About the sound's icon. I have tested it, it works ok. Maybe it was a problem with cache

Muchas gracias. Jesús te ama.

Hello,

Thanks to this topic I've made my text white. However, I can't make the textfield black, because I see to "#txt" parameter in neither css files. I suppose it have changed with developement. So how do I change it now?
