[SOLVED] Unable to edit profile

13 years 2 months ago - 13 years 2 months ago #153371 by Haggisdog
[SOLVED] Unable to edit profile was created by Haggisdog
First time poster and very new to CB.

I'm running CB 1.3.1 on a hosted (GoDaddy) instance of Joomla 1.5.2

I walked through the very helpful manual and configured my initial instance of CB which consists of Login and Workflow at this point.

I've run into a problem, however, when I login I can successfully see my profile and I can see two tabs (Community and Edit). But I'm not able to select either of these. I'm the administrator so I assume that I should be able to essentially edit everything.

I've looked about as far as I can to figure out what I've either not selected or that I've missed.

Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

Welcome to CB and our forums!

I walked through the very helpful manual and configured my initial instance of CB which consists of Login and Workflow at this point.

I've run into a problem, however, when I login I can successfully see my profile and I can see two tabs (Community and Edit). But I'm not able to select either of these. I'm the administrator so I assume that I should be able to essentially edit everything.

I've looked about as far as I can to figure out what I've either not selected or that I've missed.

Trying to understand - do you have a URL illustrating the issue and perhaps a test login to use?

Thanks Nick.

The URL for the site is www.houstonhighlanders.com

I've created a test account called Test pw: joomla so you can get a sense of the issue. Basically I just wanted users to be able to update their profile information but some reason the Edit tab can not be selected.

Do I need to run the Synchronize Users Tool before this will work correctly (I was reluctant to in case it caused a problem with the users who had registered already).

The menu can't be moused over because your logo is set as Absolute with a very large height. This is causing the Logo DIV to overlap the menu, which won't allow mouse-over of the menu. The below should resolve your issue.

IN: templates/rhuk_milkyway/css/template.css
ON: Line 88
FROM:
div#logo {
    background: url("../images/Highlanderlogo_web.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    float: left;
    height: 200px;
    left: 0;
    margin-left: 30px;
    margin-top: 25px;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 800px;
}
TO:
div#logo {
    background: url("../images/Highlanderlogo_web.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    float: left;
    height: 103px;
    left: 0;
    margin-left: 30px;
    margin-top: 25px;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 800px;
}

Simply change the height to match that of the image (103) instead of having 97 pixels worth of overflow (doing nothing). There are many other ways to more efficiently display the logo, but this is the easiest and probably quickest fix with minimal testing. I recommend placing the logo in a more appropriate module position avoiding having to use any CSS at all.
