I have a fixed background pic for my site, www.nitelight1.ning.com  and am wondering if it is possible to be able to control the background of the other pages on the site?  I know members can customize their pages, but I'm referring to the site's secondary pages.  Also is it possible to get RSS feeds on these back pages?  Thanks folks for your input! -jesse

PS:  You folks rock! Thanks!

Hi Jesse,

If you're talking about the pages feature then it's possible to change each background page using CSS. Just click on the 'Meta' box and enter it into the Custom section. Make sure to add the '<style>' tags in between.

As for the RSS feed, it is located at the bottom of the page list or www.nitelight1.ning.com/page?sort=mostRecent&feed=yes&xn_au...

Your network must be set to public to pull in feeds.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Ron for your time and help. I am just learning so I appreciate your help! Have a great day!

you too, no problem.

You can do it with Java Script for pages like /forum, /groups, /members and so on.

<script type="text/javascript">
if (window.location == 'http://yourwebsite/forum') {
$('body').css('background', 'none').css('background-image', 'url("http://yourwebsite.com/background.jpg")');
}
</script>

Thanks Anthony! I really appreciate your time and help! 

Your welcome

were do you add it and  am I right  doing this

<script type="text/javascript">
if (window.location == 'http://hecatessanctum.ning.com/forum') {
$('body').css('http://live.leafdigital.com/pics/norfolk4/img_1228.b1ec372f.w800.jpg', '').css('http://live.leafdigital.com/pics/norfolk4/img_1228.b1ec372f.w800.jpg', 'url("http://hecatessanctum.ning.com//background.jpg")');

Hi Anthony,

I have tried to use the code to change the body background image under "forum" page!

same with groups, members,

however it did not work

I inserted that code into custome code field! But there are no changes,

Let me know what the problem might be?

I have the Ning Studio and still cant get the suggestion on  another topic how to change group back grounds followed instructions I guess still doing something wrong any help lol

Hi Jesse,

You have what I've been looking for. A fixed background pic on my main site privacy page. How is that accomplished? I do know that you can have the RSS feeds on the back pages. I just have to research it and get back at you.

Thank you

Milton

Thanks for writing, I am going right now to get a copy of what I used,  See next message for the info

Hi, In the "Advanced" section of your Design Studio, enter this code....

/* Fixed background */
body {
background:url(
http://api.ning.com/files/L6yJrms5DoNJtDREbdlfZWTnjMndLEsceAR*AEPCx3-Yck4gLzRQnTLTVtQ9B91jVALhepGxKczjAqcN*9XhbfpenFuXM8uP/EmptyBackdropfromtheRescuersdisneycrossover293888291576933.jpg) no-repeat fixed center top #FFFFFF !important;
_}
_/* Fixed background */

_

_

_

BUT...This is my background. You need to put the one you wish to use in it's place.
Get the picture you wish to use (at least 1115 pix wide) and put the picture url in between the parenthesis. It will look like this,,,

/* Fixed background */
body {
background:url( YOUR PICTURE URL GOES HERE
) no-repeat fixed center top #FFFFFF !important;
}
/* Fixed background */

I hope this will help you. This will over ride everything and the picture you choose will become the background. Let me know if I can be of more help!  Copy the code on the bottom and use Notepad.  Simply erase the...YOUR PICTURE URL GOES HERE...and then add your picture URL that you wish to use.  Once done that copy it and then paste it into the ADVANCED part of your design studio...:)
