  2. Size of box on events page

    I'm new to Wild Apricot and know nothing about CSS (or any other type!) of code.

    I want to change the size of the box on my Events page but have been told by support that they are fixed and can only be changed by changing the CSS code. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

  3. Wild Apricot removes code for social media sharing buttons during "cleaning HTML" process.

    Wild Apricot removes code for social media sharing buttons during "cleaning HTML" process. The code that I'm trying to incorporate into my site is as follows (from ShareThis.com):

    <span class='st_twitter_large' ></span><span class='st_facebook_large' ></span><span class='st_email_large' ></span><span class='st_sharethis_large' ></span>

    Is there any reason why WIld Apricot is trying to get rid of this code?

  4. Add button over the Home link in the left navigation

    I would like to put a button for Joining or Renewing Membership above the Home link in the left navigation area. See www.astd.org for a visual example of what I want to accomplish.

    I see documentation about putting content under the menu but not above.

    Is this possible?

  6. Inserting PHP pages

    Hello,

    I'm relatively new to WA and new to the forum and have been unsuccessful finding the answer to this question here. Perhaps someone could kindly answer for me: Is there a way to insert PHP pages into WA, maybe via iframes or something similar?,

    I have a database that needs to serve a collection of PDF files to my WA site users, and the best way to do this would be to have a page inserted into the normal WA site that contains PHP code. I know you can add HTML and Javascript, but can PHP pages be used?…

  7. Social Login platform integration

    I am toying with the idea of using a social login product such as Janrain engage (http://www.janrain.com/products/engage/social-login ) as a way to increase my social media presence (I run a social club, so it make sense to optimise the use of social media for cross promotion).

    Has anyone tried this on any WA sites? I found a couple of posts asking about facebook connect and linkedin integration, but not much else.

    Surely it would be reasonably straight forward. I don't consider myself to be a developer, but know more than enough to get myself in and out of webworld…

  8. Gibberish when adding AreaUnderMenu.tpl

    I tried adding AreaUnderMenu.tpl and I got a lot of gibberish after adding it. All I had in the file was an <img> tag? Anyone have an idea what might cause this?

  9. Linking Gadget Titles Anyone?

    The gadget titles cannot be linked using the gadget settings at this time. However, it may be possible to do this using Javascript code.

    Has anyone done this already?

  10. Nicasio Design & Development ROCKS!

    I just want to let all Wild Apricot clients know that my experience using Felix and Nicasio Design and Development is unbelievable. They are a Wild Apricot partner and totally understand exactly what it means to be a non-profit with limited resources. Felix and his colleagues helped our new organization with some javascript coding that was necessary to facilitate unique privacy issues we were facing with our members based upon the way the levels of membership are setup in our bylaws. If you ever need help with CSS, Javascript, web design or other programming and coding issues, I recommend using…

  11. Members connecting thru LinkedIn integration, eHarmony-like interface

    I'm hoping some folks have some ideas for us. This may be too big for "wishlist" and maybe there is a workaround that I'm not seeing.

    We have two big things we'd like to do with our membership via our WA site:

    1. Create a robust membership directory without asking our members to recreate the wheel. Most of our members are on LinkedIn and have spent considerable time building profiles there. We'd love to be able to integrate with LinkedIn so that when one member is surfing the member directory, she'd see the info included in another member's LI profile. We…

  13. Adding text on unsubscribe page

    When I send an email to members there is an 'unsubscribe' link at the bottom of the email. I asked if this could be removed but was told that due to spam regulations it cannot. Hence, since the unsubscribe link cannot be removed from emails, on the page where they confirm that they are unsubscribing from newsletters, can some text be added to inform users that by doing so they are not stopping their recurrent payments, nor cancelling their membership, but rather only stopping the delivery of newsletter emails? I just want to avoid confusion. How may I add text…

  14. Remove Hyperlink for Authors in Blogs and Forums

    In any blogs and forums I would like to remove the ability for members and the public to click on the author's name and be able to go to the author's profile. I only want to list their name as an author. Is there a way to do that using CSS code? Thank you in advance.

  16. WordPress Married To Wild Apricot

    So, often our clients want to remain on WordPress and at the same time take advantage of the Wild Apricot membership management backbone. The answer? Custom Nicasio Design Magic.

    We migrate the WordPress site's design, layout and nav items to the client's Wild Apricot site. The result? Look for yourself...

    Seamless, kick butt, custom integration of the two most powerful platforms available today.

    Let us know if we can do the same for you or your friends ;0)

  18. Hi Designers and Developers - Introduce yourself

    It's no secret that Wild Apricot has many tools for associations and other organizations, but what isn't so well known is that we have a growing set of tools for designers and developers to create beautiful websites for all these associations and organizations.

  19. width of login in IE

    We've got a glitch with the log-in screen (name and password box) when viewed with Internet Explorer. The width is truncated by nearly half. Its working fine with both Chrome and Firefox. Check it out at:
    janedoeinc.memberlodge.org We have a lot of custom CSS code which is altering the look of the page and login box.And I can't figure out where in the CSS this needs to be adjusted. When I tried widening the table by using CSS (#ctl03ctl02loginViewControl_loginControl {width:270px}) it messed up the login box in all platforms. Does anyone have a suggestion?Thanks.

  20. Blog Excerpts Cut Off

    Hi, I'm setting up a site with a customized theme. I'm running into an issue on the blog page where the excerpt of a specific post is getting cut off (see the screen shot below, just above the Read More | Add Comment links). I use the Firebug extension in Firefox, but haven't been able to figure out where in the CSS the size of the excerpt box is controlled.

    Is there a way to fix it? Ideally, I'd like to make it just stretch to whatever the size of the post is.

    I'm using a customized version of the…
