Font colors

[nl1bzw]

Hi,

If i want to change the font colors in:

components -> phoca -> items -> parameters

It's saving them, but if i go to my main site it doesn't change anything.

I'm running joomla 1.5 stable.

Does anybody know what i did wrong?

You must change it in menu link, menu link -> parameters component, these parameters override the default settings of an component in Joomla 1.5 framework...

I wanted to have the title with a red background and the text in white. But by changing the fontcolor, my entries changed as well and where in white afterwards...

I found the solution by doing a small code hack. I worked with 1.3.1beta.

First, I changed the CSS-Color of the title from fontcolor to titlecolor in default.php:
FROM

Code: Select all

$msgpg .= '<h4 style="background:'.$this->css['backgroundcolor'].';color:'.$this->css['fontcolor'].';padding:8px;margin:2px;">';

TO

Code: Select all

$msgpg .= '<h4 style="background:'.$this->css['backgroundcolor'].';color:'.$this->css['titlecolor'].';padding:8px;margin:2px;">';

Secondly, I had to define this new class (?) in view.html.php, in line +- 188 I added:

Code: Select all

if ($params->get( 'title_color' ) != '')			{$css['titlecolor'] = $params->get( 'title_color' );}
		else 											{$css['titlecolor'] = '#ffffff';}

Now, everything workes fine. Because there's no parameter called title_color, the css for the titlecolor is set to white. But it's only a fallback-solution. To complete it, I wanted to be able to set the titlecolor in the backend.

I had to change config.xml in the administrator-part of phocaguestbook, in line +-26 I added:

Code: Select all

<param name="title_color" default="#000000" size="10" type="text" label="Title Color" description="Title Color DESC" />

And voila, in the backend there was the new parameter titlecolor.

Last but not least, there was the wrong description of the tooltip. I tried to fix it by adding a new language string to en-GB.com_phocaguestbook.ini (Be aware: There are several language-files: One is located in administrator/component/com_phocaguestbook/language/en-GB, another in language/en-GB):

Code: Select all

TITLE COLOR=Title color
TITLE COLOR DESC=Change Color of Title

...now I'm stuck , maybe Jan could help further? Everything works fine except for the language string. Do I have to register it somewhere else?

administrator language you have to change in:
'administrator/language/en-GB'

The folder 'language/en-GB' is for the frontend language



with kind regards,

YES.

administrator/language/en-GB

That did the trick, I couldn't find this language file. Thank you.
