Crazy Design Trick: Give a mind blowing look to your ning forum.

[Bernard Lama]

Jfarrow is looking for THE BEST 3RD PARTY FORUMS TO INTEGRATE INTO NING. His idea is not bad. However, we can give a different or nice look to your ning forum if you have a tweaking knowledge. But how? Here we go.....

Instructions: No headache, no editing, no changing. Simply copy and paste the code into custom code area. 

The code

Now this code is not available for free . We charge USD 5 for this code and USD 20 for custom code ( custom code meaning color of your choice.) Contact : [e-mail]

BTW, which version are you using? I have not tested it with 2 column layout and the old editor.

This is the actual discussion page. On the forum page I'm using the original 3 column layout.

For the original 3 column layout I changed your 982 width to 755 and it worked great.
But when you click on a discussion that takes you to the page (that I posted above) I get that unwanted giant header.

[Scott Bishop]

I'm sorry, I meant original 2 column layout.

[Bernard Lama]

Well as I already told you I have not tested with 2 column layout. I will provide you the code for 2 column layout if I will get time.

Best Wishes

Okay, never mind. I just stripped that part of the coding out all together so the discussion page is not effected by the hack.

Cool Tips. Thanks Bernard.  :-)

Hi Bernard,
I have a question: is there a reason for using script when some correctly implemented CSS would do it? (using xg_widget_forum for example)
I'm not trying to criticise, I'm genuinely wondering if there is a reason I'm missing.

Cheers SP

Hi SP,

Thanks for your question. Well, the reasons why I'm using script are:

1) I can't insert discussion icons with CSS and I want to make a compact code with .js file. I don't want to paste the codes here and there. Even I  want to do  a lot more things with script in future for forum design which can't be done with CSS. 

2)  Sometimes CSS codes are not working perfectly at least for me.

Best Wishes

Bernard

If we use .xg_widget_forum then it will affect main page forum and other related forums in group etc.
