  • I think that it was a Joomla update feature, mine is back to normal.

  • The recent Joomla update messed with how we had things... Kristin's been patching them to try to fix the site back to what we need ( or at least to a new state of being able to function somewhat normally) but in this case functionality beats aesthetics... at least in regards to first things to be taken care of...

  • Sadly, mine isn't back to normal either. Well, all we can do is be patient and grateful to staff when they finally can get it fixed.

    Any way? Yes.

    Easy for the average user to do by themselves without step-by-step instructions? No.

    If it were only a matter of changing the background-color settings for body.site.fluid and body.site over seven thousand lines down into one of the template.css files, it would have already been done. There are add-ons for some browsers that allow that, each one different.

    Trying out changes to stylesheets which may not load in the order expected, and may affect parts of that (or some other) page that simply weren't obvious is slow, tedious, and rarely if ever improved by stopping to politely answer variations of "are we there yet?" and then trying to find one's mental place again.

  • Add in the fact that this particular one isn't visible on my screen, so its either screen width or browser type dependent. What browser/screen sizes are you all using that you're seeing the white background?

    Windows, 1920x1200, Chrome has the white background but Firefox shows correctly.

  • Anyone still experiencing a reversion to the default white, try a hard refresh (shift+F5)... I may or may not have gotten all the adjustments back to where they are supposed to be.

    just plain F5 worked without the shift for me!

    thanks! Kristin!
