Layout of columns, i.e., the margins to edge of column borders, is non-existent in IE 10 with Windows 8. Love it or hate it I.E. still commands over 50% of the browser use. (Though I don't know how high a percentage among NCs! LOL! OK in Chrome and…Continue

I'm going to hazard a guess (tough to tell with small screenshot) that you have your forums layout set to a wide column on the left a narrow one on the right. That I believe is why you're seeing a…"
James Hawkins replied to John Bizley's discussion 'I have a Question about the Social Channels ( youtube, vimeo )' in the group The Sandbox"OK, now it's working. I had tried in both FF and IE10 at the time. Some temporary glitch or as they would say here in Thailand ..."it was a ghost".

James Hawkins replied to John Bizley's discussion 'I have a Question about the Social Channels ( youtube, vimeo )' in the group The Sandbox"Hi John,
Your site is looking great. However when I go to the YouTube page and click any of the videos up pops this error.
Is this because you're still under construction? Do you see this? ...or is it on my end?"
James Hawkins replied to Alexander's discussion 'Move header image to top!'"Hi again,
Sorry I didn't respond sooner. I'm in Thailand so 12 hours (or about) difference so I'm sleeping when you're working. Looking at my suggestion I realize that the div should have been left off. Luckily Bernard was there…"
James Hawkins replied to Alexander's discussion 'Move header image to top!'"Hi Alexander,
This snippet of code placed in custom css should do it. If you have this code bit already in your custom css because of previous styling, then change margin-top from 20 to 0.
div#xg_masthead…"
James Hawkins replied to Fire-Tech's discussion 'Ning 3.0 First Accessment' in the group The Sandbox"In IE 10 the scroll bar remains in the left side box but the new box is tiny and non-expandable, whereas in Firefox the new box can be 'pulled' larger from the lower right corner. "
James Hawkins replied to Fire-Tech's discussion 'Ning 3.0 First Accessment' in the group The Sandbox"Hi Fire-Tech,
If you click on the link 'default above footer html' (it's in blue under the now new blank box) a new box will open to the right and the code will be there and editable. The code isn't stripped it is just…"

James Hawkins replied to Writer Chick {Diane}'s discussion 'WRITER CHICK {DIANE LYNNE} ~ 3.0 FEEDBACK' in the group The Sandbox"OK I think I see why your layout is different. (double column below a full width column. You chose that layout for your home page and then it becomes the default for the profile and member pages. ...Without the ability to change it. On my members…"
James Hawkins replied to Writer Chick {Diane}'s discussion 'WRITER CHICK {DIANE LYNNE} ~ 3.0 FEEDBACK' in the group The Sandbox"Hi Diane,
Did you do some styling to get the double column below the wide profile header? I don't have that option and my photos lay-out in a grid.
I did however have to put this code in custom css changing the width attribute of the…"

James Hawkins replied to FedMedic's discussion 'Slideshow not working!'"Hi Fedmedic,
When you say it has stopped working do you mean it has just stopped rotating photos? ...or has the 'screen' gone black? Did you add any new custom code? ... a new photo? ...or did you just discover 'no…"
James Hawkins replied to FedMedic's discussion 'Slideshow not working!'"You can use (for now) this simple slider from 2.0. There are pages of discussions on implementing it here. The photo album slideshow available in 2.0 has not been made available in 3.0, yet. It will work in 3.0 using the same code and…"

Az'ya said… Hi James,
I've been looking around here trying to find an answer to a question - it seems you might be able to assist me... I replied to an older thread where you did provide basically what I'm looking for (although not all the relevant code from what I can tell), but you might not have seen that activity. Here is the comment: customizing signup forms
Perhaps I can also ask Adrienne too, if she can share the fix you helped her with... I'm sort of new around here and not sure how best to go about asking for assistance... Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks ~ Az'ya

Klaus said… It is a little glitch in the side of my slider, at the bottom of my site, www.shippassion.com I remember you have helped me about the same problem once.I should change a little bit in my css code.It was something about 0,5 to the right?
But I removed my slider from my site earlier together with the codes.So I need a little adjustment again :)
