Top bar is invisible

posts: 3

Hi all,

I need some help if am not to brake my screen using my keyboard...!

All I want to do is to add an image (something like a banner, although
not clickable) on top of EVERY page of my wiki site.

I have read other posts regarding the same, or similar problems, but I
can't work out a solution.

The problem is that although I have modified the top_bar.tpl file to
include an image into the top bar, the top bar rarely appears.

So, I have two basic questions.

1. Why when I use the neat theme, the top bar is never visible, while
when I select moreneat, the top bar becomes visible only when I am logged
out of tiki? The tpl file is the same, so are there any css declarations
that make the difference?

2. How can I make the top bar ALWAYS visible?

I someone could answer those two, they would save me a lot of time,
and maybe the money for a new screen and keyboard 😉

Thanks a lot,
Tony

The neat theme redefines the top bar. there is a templates/styles/neat/tiki-top_bar.tpl that overwrites the default templates/tiki-top_bar.tpl.
So if you change templates/tiki-top_bar.tpl, your change will never be seen in the neat theme

FOr moreneat , check if the top bar is redeined too? in standard no but .... Look at templates/styles/moreneat.css to see in the top_bar is included

As sylvie says above, in order to ensure that your top bar is always visible in whichever theme that it is that you choose,

go to tiki\templates\styles and look if there's a folder already for your theme.

1. If yes, go inside and edit tiki-top_bar.tpl (if this file isn't present, copy it from another theme's folder and edit it)

2. If no, create the folder w/ the same name as your style and place a tiki-top_bar.tpl in it.
