Personal Events Tech Issues

JaySouthwood · June 2008

I am having a few issues with personal events. Perhaps someone out there could elaborate on how to correct them?

1.) Is there a way to make city, state, and zip REQUIRED fields for host information on the registration form? (It shows the options but they cannot be selected for required fields).

2.) The color in the title box comes through as DARK BLUE and is a default setting which makes the text tough to read. Can this be edited? This may have something to do with the cascading style sheet.

3.) Can the scrolling guest list be removed from the host page?

The event center is pulling in the wrong page wrapper? How can this be prevented?

Thanks!

I believe that the settings shown at the top of the page for host information is just an a representation of what your site registration settings are -- in otherwords, you can't change the requirement unless you change it for your site registration.

I'm guessing that the blue text issue has to do with your site CSS.

Not sure about the scrolling list -- sorry.

And you might want to check the security category in regards to the wrapper issue.

Kim is correct these points.

The setting shown on the registration questions reflect your site settings.

The colors can be edited by modifying your CSS.

Currently, the scrolling list can not be removed.

The wrapper issue is a known bug that should be fixed with the 5.3.60 release.

Hope this helps. Let us know if you need more information.

Do you know what portion of the CSS needs to be edited? Do you have the code for this or no where I can get it?

You can customize the heading by overriding the CSS styles for the class GTEntryHeading. This can be done by customizing the stylesheet for your site or adding styles in the PageWrapper for Personal Events.

In general, most of the elements in Personal Events pages have either id tags or class tags. When you see an element that you would like to customize and want to know what the default styles are for this element, you can view the source for GetTogetherUserStyle.css for your site. This file contains all the styles that Personal Events uses.

I was able to use this innformation to change my bar color in "Build an Event"....however it did not work across the personal events system for "Find an Event". Does each section/pages CSS have to be edited? What would the tag name that would change that? Almost have it! If you want to look for yourself please visit: The two links mentioned are on the right side of the page.

Howdy,

I took a look at your site and don't see any dark blue on the 'Find an Event' page. I'm using firefox 3. Can you maybe post a screenshot?
