1. background images in the navigation

   I have a left navigation menu, and would like to put separate background images in each menu item (not a single background image for the whole menu). I do not have any subpages, just the main level of links. I've done this before with a spry menu but can't figure out where to insert the backgrounds in all this CSS. Please help if you can! Thanks.

2. Using custom fonts

   I I am wanting to use some custome fonts on my WA site - am not particularly fussed as to which method as long as it works.

   Of Cufon, SiFR and @fontface (CSS) methods avaiable, the latter is probably preferred.

   The problem I am encountering is the supporting file types (.eot, .ttf, etc) and where to host them as WA does not as far as I can see, support upload of these filetypes. I have tried imnplementing using remote hosting options, but it doesn't seem to want to play nicely.....

   Any suggestions as to a work around? (By the way, Cufon, my second preference als requires javascript placed in the head tag rather than at the bottom of the page where WA tends to indert them, so this not proving partiularly effective either)

   Cheers

3. CSS customization of site

   Here is my problem:

   The way that we are utilizing the Wild Apricot site is as a membership management site. We have an existing website that we are integrating some of the widget pages from WA, into. This means that for the most part, I simply need to modify many of the style settings of the widgets, to match the style of the existing website.

   At one point, I thought that I had done this. Then, somehow, the theme was changed. Now, the colors and text are different. I have literally put off going in to fix this because every time I do, and every time I download the CSS template for the theme that I have selected, I freeze up.

   When I look at the template and see that between the div for the content wrapper and the div that contains the content, there are 9 intermediate div's, I get lost. Then, when you look at the template, even as commented as it is, it is almost impossible to figure out what you have to change in order to get the colors correct. I am confident in my skills with html and css. I built our existing website from the ground up, including styles. I just feel that the current style model is WAY to complex, to the point of being almost UNUSABLE. I understand that much of the reason for having the nested div's is to provide as many customization options as you can for your customers. I am willing to state that the customizations available on WA, could be done much simpler. A simple web search reveals web sites with large numbers of templates, using pure html/css that are just as complex in many ways, and use 1/3 the number of divs in each area.

   The other problem that I have is the disconnect between the editing options related to parts of the header, footer, and and menu bars, text and links, and the styles for the rest of the website. All styles NEED to be together, as do all html modifications. I think if you made this simple change, the satisfaction level would increase and stress level would decrease of all people trying to integrate WA into their current website.

   My proposal is this:
   
   * If there is going to be a section to edit the look and feel of the site, presented in a wizard format like the editing options for header, menu and footer, then ALL style options should be presented that way as well.
   
   * Change the area to modify CSS. Having to download the template, then find the sections that you want to change, cut that out and upload it into the Customize CSS window is clumsy and confusing. Allow someone to download the CSS template, modify it and upload the entire thing to preview changes, then apply them to the site. Having to cut out sections and paste them somewhere else is confusing because you lose the context of where they fit to the rest of the template.
   * Combine this area with where you choose and apply a theme. Having to switch between each of these things makes me lose track of where certain parts are kept, where I was last, and what I still need to change.

   If someone has already suggested something like this, then please merge this comment with that request. I have been working with WA for almost 2 years now, and it has been AWESOME. I can't express enough how great and responsive you all have been. That being said, this area is a HUGE stumbling block, to the point that I get frustrated every time I think about it. I have not attempted to fix it because I honestly don't have time to sit and parse through the CSS template to find the correct style sections to cut out, paste in the Customize area, and then modify.

   Please Help!

   Thanks,

   Russell

4. Custom HTML Code Being Removed Upon Save

   I have a number of pages with custom <style> tags in the HTML. I add them by clicking Edit HTML on a specific page. I actually use them to override the user.css styles in the external style sheet.

   Example - I have some flash code for a rotating image banner in my footer. I only want to show this on my home page. So in my user.css file I add a style rule that hides it for all pages:

   idflashimage{display; none;}

   (I place the flash embed code inside a DIV that I have assigned an ID to and hide that)

   Then on the Home page (or whatever page I want it to be shown) I add the following <style> tag:

   <style>#idflashimage { display: block;}</style>

   Prior to the update I was able to add the <style> tag, save the page and no problem. Now it seems that when I add a <style> tag to a page via Edit HTML and save it, the "Cleaning HTML" process deletes the whole tag.

   Did the 4.0 update make it harder to insert custom HTML tags?

   Thanks

6. Multi-Column Display for Single Browsing Categories

   Sometimes you only have one column for browsing but it's squeezed into a narrow column.

   You can scretch it out across the entire page using this CSS customization.

   Code

   idF1Options{width:950px;}

   idF1Options ul

   {
   width: 70em;
   }

   idF1Options ul li

   {
   float: left;
   width: 10em;
   }

   br
   {
   clear: left;
   }
   optionLink
   {
   margin-bottom: 2em;
   }

7. Pictures in the left Navigation Container?

   Hello,

   I have currently chose a hybrid template (main navigation on across the top, and sub-items along the left side), and have customized it a bit. http://www.rnlcny.org/Members The login box is also in the left submenu, although I have limited it to showing only on certian Members accessed pages.

   I would like to add more to the left Navigation Container, like a 200x100 picture that tell of an event or theme, or iframes or even widgets. If it was stacked from top to bottom, the navigation container would look like: Image, Sub-Items Menu, Log-in (that I've turned on for appriotate pages), then possibly a widget or iframe.

   Here is a website that has a good example of the image before the sub-items menu: http://www.journeymetro.com/brooklyn/about

   I can make the object in the CSS customization, but I don't know how to place it into the html. I know I can affect the CSS, but how do I affect the html? Can I access it through webdav or something like that? An same type of question for an iframe. How do I insert that type of thing in the right place in the html? Some sort of javascript?

   Let me know when you can. Also, if possible, it would be great to see an example (even a test page) to dive deep into the code and really understand how it is set up. (I use Firebug in Firefox to really explore the code and learn.)

   Thanks,

   Ben
