Delete the contents of the templates_c directory particularly the theme.html.php file, reload you site and the changes should show.

Hi, the article text isnt contained within a block.

Look for this in the style css:
.itemBody
and

.itemText


try adding the margin attributes and a value to either the above and see if it makes a difference.

e.g

.itemBody
{
    
padding-left5px;
        [
b]margin-bottom5px;[/b]
}


add or adjust the value of margin-bottom to either itemBody or itemText to see if it helps with the white space

Hello, you have to edit your themes css file to change text colors. locate: style.css within the themes folder and open it in notepad or something, find this bit of code: (yours may look slightly different)

body
{
    
color#000000;
    
font-familyArial,Tahoma,Verdana,Sans-serif;
    
background-color#787878;
    
margin0px;
    
font-size12px;
    
background-repeatno-repeat;
    
background-attachmentfixed;
}


change the color value to #000000 which will make the text black, you can find other color values by searching for html color values on google.

Alternatively look for this bit of code (or similar) within style.css

.itemBody
{
}

If there is something like background-color: #ffffff; (or whatever the green color is) change it to #000000 which will make the item background black.

Play around until you get colors that suite you.

If this person posts on the newbb forum you should be able to see his IP adress along with his post under the user info(username, avatar, etc)

If you know what username he uses and you see him online you can open up the whos online pop up(have whos online block enabled) and it will show his IP adress, you can then ban him in the XOOPS CP or using htaccess.

Hey,

I have been using XOOPS for over 2 years now on the same website, this is the first time though I have asked someone to review and criticise my site, the reason is I am looking at doing a major redesign soon, implementing new modules so I am looking for the XOOPS pro's to tell me what they might do differently so I can be inspired basically.

The site is a Michael Jackson fansite so I am partiularly interested to hear from others who use XOOPS as a fansite or music based site.

The theme is a modified 7dana round, mostly CSS changes with some html modification on the theme.html its not great but im no theme designer, I use alot of modules, some of them have very simple template changes as my php knowledge is very basic.

If you could review my site on content, general layout, etc and please criticise it to the bone i want to know what I can improve, i realise most of you might not be Michael Jackson fans but from the view of a general web surfer is it any good?

Heres the link: MJTKOP.COM

Thanks.

Hey, glad to see you got some of your problem solved, protector is agreat module for stopping refresh attacks and high loading crawlers.

For the offline downloading you will have to try and ban them using htaccess like i posted above, you need to know the user agent so you can ban by user agent, searching on google might bring up good lists of user agents to ban.

You might also set up some kind of honey pot to catch them, ive never tried this so im not sure how efective it is but you could create a directory within your site which is not puclic and no one knows about name it something like kjsahfj87825jh like really random so no human could guess it put in a few images then wait a week or so, check your access logs and look to see who/what has downloaded that directory and bingo you have your bad bots(dissalow the directory in robots.txt first), and offline downloaders check the ip's and useragents and ban them with htaccess.

This will probably only work if someone is typing your main URL into the downloading software and downloading your entire site, its worth a try the more bad useragents and ips you ban might at least reduce your bandwidth usage a bit.

Hi, i am sorry to here that the help did not work, are you still experiancing big problems with the fake hits? From what i read your host is not helping much which is wrong, i guess you are on shared hosting so you prob dont have shell access, if you do it might be worth learning a bit about it can show alot of things like running 'top' can show you processes using most resources which is helpfull if your server load is too high.

It sounds like you could be under some attack, if somethings are abusing your site more than normal human visitors then your host should step in and block the bad traffic if they are not willing to do anything to help and simply suspend your account or whatever then time to move to a new host.

I am interested in this topic, a few months ago i had created a new category for news images in the image manager, it was fine any new images uploaded where being displayed at the top (page 1) so it was easy to find newly uploaded images, all of a sudden though new uploaded images are being put into page 4 or 5 ( round about the middle) which means i have to go throuhg a few pages to find images.

I have alot of images so i dont bother with adding weight to uploaded images, is there a change to the code so I could make uploaded images sort by upload date i.e so new images are at the top of page 1.

Thanks.

Hi, if its offline browsers and bad bots you want to block try this htaccess file, paste it into notepad name it .htaccess, change anything thats needs to be changed to refere to your domain and upload it inot public_html or XOOPS root, I got this from webmasterworld I use it and have had no major problems with offline downloaders and bad bots, you need to also go through your logs and find out who/what is hogging your bandwidth and ban them by IP and as said before have protector installed to it is a very usefull module.
