In the beginning we left it open but then we decided to feature blog posts, photos and video (but not the Forum) so that we could have greater control over the content. You'll get a lot of people trying to self-promote and then there's always just blatant spammers out there..
Your comments:
"Need your help, would love to pick your brain, a webdev friend knocked out our "gilt"like front page, i received a file with html (easy enough, upload thru file manager) and a file with CSS, it seems like it's the CSS does all the layout, and I just have no idea what to do with the CSS code or where to put it. A nugget of info would go a long way doll, thank you for all that you do and Merry Xmas!"
Problem is, not a "nugget". Sorry, out of town with a mini PC and slow connection. Bottom line tip: My guess is your webdev friend is probably calling the CSS from the HTML. You need to see if there is a linked CSS file within the HTML. If not, you probably need to (I say probably cause this is a custom job, and I'm not sure what all is taking place):
1. Upload the CSS file via File Manager
2. Copy/paste the URL of CSS file you uploaded
3. Add a link CSS statement in HEAD of HTML, using the new uploaded CSS URL.
4. Reupload the edited HTML.
And you may could link to CSS within Custom Code, but problem there: you could have conflicting styles.
On Wednesday, August 11, 2010 I sent the company ning all data requested me to pay through bank transfer the annual cost of my page ning. Until today I never received the data from the bank where I have to deposit money
Why a company like ning have this attitude with your customers?
Why am I not allowed to pay my network? What do you want?
I want to pay and instead of sending data from the bank where pay
send me a notice that my network will be dropped
I want to pay to keep my network
Who is responsible for this bad deal to me and to all members of my network
thanks. i'll try to get in touch with him tonight then. need to find out what he plans to do about sitesuites, jisbar and the apps he created for ning. i was doing the sitesuites blog, but with no new developments, there's nothing for me to blog about. i would hate to see his work languish. i missed jana today, will try and call her tomorrow. ryan is completely m.i.a.
HOW TO REMOVE THE WELCOME BOX:
If you don't want the new Welcome Message Box/Banner to be displayed, go to Manage/Appearance/Advanced and add this code:
#welcome { display:none !important; }
Joomla using a Rocket theme and JomSocial...but we are going to do a custom UI with a completely different look---just needed a test site for now.
