"Sorry to see that you have had the same thing happen to your site. I guess it just reinforces my thought that Ning is a bad option if you want any control of your content. Would you believe that Ning insisted the problem was on my end?

"You make an excellent point, and to back up content we must do it manually. I can't begin to assume why Ning chooses to have such complete control over the labor of their clients but it certainly isn't a good model for any business owner to work…"

Once addon is installed, I click on CSS icon, and click on sub-menu item "edit CSS". This allows me to change any CSS in runtime environment, as long as the special "edit CSS" box is still open.
I'm with Travis. I do hope you didn't remove that type of Discussion that contained code that could help many people - - especially with all the questions you ask.
First, you do realize we were using this to fix a big boo-boo, right?
To answer your questions:
How did u ?
u mean Firebug add on for ff ? Yes, I should have added "FireBug Add-On"
where is CSS/Edit CSS where is theme_xxxxx.css ? CSS/Edit CSS is part of the main Web Developer Add-On. Once you see that option, you would see the main "theme.css". It has a different and unique # for each Ning website.
Hey Yasi, if you require direct support please the Help Center. We don't want to turn Creators into a place where Ning provides 1:1 support. Thanks! http://help.ning.com?go=contact
Yasi, just FYI, regarding your blendapps chatrom, I think the entire Userplane domain is blocked in Iran. You can test that by going to http://userplane.com/directory and seeing if any chat rooms there work for you.
Im not working for blendapps or userplane, but im a longtime chat administrator...How it works is when a person launches the chat in your site, the code contacts blendapps, which is running on google servers. The application on googles servers takes your user info and icon and opens a browser window on your computer displaying the "room" running on userplanes servers. If any one piece in the chain (your site- blendapps - google - userplane) is blocked in Iran, the chat wont work properly.
Good luck making it work or finding another solution. If you need help, I found a few others that might work.

I can provide the addon name, link and summary. Otherwise, you need to play with it, and learn how to use it.
FireFox extension/add-on called: Web Developer 1.1.8
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60
Once addon is installed, I click on CSS icon, and click on sub-menu item "edit CSS". This allows me to change any CSS in runtime environment, as long as the special "edit CSS" box is still open.
Have fun,
Jen
