Hi Mel,
You need to apply custom css to change the background color of ES toolbar.
First, make sure you have already created the custom.css directory at JoomlaFolder\templates\yourCurrentTemplate\html\com_easysocial\css\custom.css. After that, you can apply the code below into the css file. You can change the color by editing the color code #000 into other color codes.

body div#fd.es .es-toolbar .navbar-inner{

 background: #000 !important;

 border: 1px solid #000 !important;

}



body div#fd.es .es-toolbar .fd-navbar-search .search-query {

 background: #000 !important;

}



body div#fd.es .es-toolbar .fd-navbar-search {

 background: #000 !important;

}

Hope this helps.

Hi Raymond,

thank you, that has changed the top toolbar. How do I change all the other blue bits i.e. the little dropdown and the buttons in all the menu links i.e. in Videos, Groups etc. see images:

Ideally there should be something like there is for joomla templates where we can change the colours easily via an admin panel - maybe a feature request?

Mel

Hi Mark,

thanks for responding - that code changed the same bits as Raymond provided - it still didn't change the othe sections i.e. buttoms or avatar dropdown area.

Not to worry though, as I saw the newsletter regarding EasySocial 2 and it is exactly what I want - ability to change these within administrator

What is the timescale for easysocial release? Is it weeks/months away? If it is a long way off then I will try and work out the colour changes myself (as do appreciate this is not in the scope of support).

Kind regards

Mel

Hi Mel,
Unfortunately, I couldn't really give you a close estimate as our developers are still quite tied up with ES2.0 many tasks. For now, just assume it to be months. I would suggest you to do your own customization at the mean time. I appreciate your understanding. Thanks.

Hi Raymond,

thank you for letting me know.

Just to say, the code Mark gave did work - I just needed to clear the cache

Mel

Thanks for updating Mel, glad that your issues are resolved now
