Where to change the orange and pink colors up top

    Hi: in version 1.1.2, I looked at a lot of the CSS files in the two BP theme directories and could not figure out where the orange and pink colors up top under the log in bar are to be edited. We’d like to keep the identity of our network essentially black/white/gray for simplicity purposes. I would appreciate any feedback.

    Thank you

    hi Arezki

    have a look at the bp-defult/_inc/css/screen.css and bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css

    There you will find the css for these.

    The best way to make change is get the firebug addon for mozilla and inspect the element and make the changes.

    Hope it helps.

    terrific feedback. I was not aware of firebug addon, but will download it tonight. Many thanks for the lead.

    Hi Brajesh,

    To restrict the left column from expanding at will, how can I limit it to a limited width? I think I know where I can do that, just looking for confirmation. Thanks a mil.

    hi Arezki

    I am glad,I could help.

    well,please have a look at the _inc/css/layout, you will see different folders for home page etc.There you can edit the code.For Home page(if you are using default home page,as I see)

    You can edit the _inc/css/layout/home-page/3c-right.css

    just set the width for #first-section

    Thanks

    Brajesh

    Thanks Brajesh.

    I followed you guidance and got a great deal of improvements, at lease from a color consistency standpoint. On the column width, did you actually mean 3c-left.css, instead of 3c-right? it seems it’s the left column that needs some ‘controlling.’ I think! And for that one, it’s the file that is under /wp-content/themes/bp-sn-parent/_inc/css/layout ?

    Cheers

    I’m trying to do the same thing. However, I read that you shouldn’t change the bp-sn-parent/ but use the bp-defualt. You would need to transfer the files you want to change. Is this true.

    I actually read that you need to create a child theme to avoid problems in future upgrades. As much as i’d love to follow that rule, reading the process of creating such child-theme is too technical for me. So I am moving along with what I think are cosmetic changes since I am looking for basic functions. Most of the changes were made in bp-sn-parent, which I probably should not have done it. That’s the drama when you are not so technical.
