Hey there,

1. Where do I configure/edit the 'More Settings' dropdown on the toolbar - see image.

You can check it out at the Toolbar section of the Layout setting as shown in the first screenshot.

2. I want to link the Edit/Account profile link on this same dropdown to point to the user's EasySocial Profile - I have custom fields created in ES and that is pretty much all we are using ES for at this time.

In order to do that, you need to enable the settings as shown in the second and third screenshots. Can you have a try and see how it goes?

Hi Irwin,

You solved the second issue - I was able to successfully link to the EasySocial profile, thank you for that!

The first question, I should have been more clear. I want to be able to select whicj links are visible in the 'More Settings' Dropdown Menu. Example, I would like to remove some of the descriptions under the links like "Bye for now. Come back again.". I would also like to remove 'My Assigned Posts' from the dropdown. This cannot be accomplished from the Toolbar settings in the back-end as pointed out. I basically want full control on what items are in that dropdown and the link text for it. I hope that makes sense!

One other thing - the toolbar styling reference is confusing me a little bit. Now that I have changed the settings to include the Easysocial Profile link with the EasyDiscuss toolbar I am getting the following - see set of images.

1. The background of the toolbar on the EasySocial Profile page is Black.
2. The background of the toolbar on the EasyDiscuss Profile page is Blue (my custom setting)
3. Using Inspector I have attached a realtime snapshot of the styling. - see for both EasySocial page and EasyDiscuss Page.
4. I have attached the backend settings for Toolbar colors for both Easysocial and Easydiscuss.
5. A custom.css override does not seem to fix the bg color issue on the EasySocial Toolbar.

If you want to remove this "Bye for now. Come back again.", you can language override the following language constant and set its value to "" only at Backend > Extensions > Languages > Overrides

OR you can remove it at default.php file BUT you need to copy and paste the original default.php file from JoomlaFolder/components/com_easydiscuss/themes/wireframe/toolbar/default.php to the template override location which is at JoomlaFolder/templates/yourCurrentTemplate/html/com_easydiscuss/toolbar/default.php FIRST. Take note that you need to create the folders manually if you didn't see them:

COM_EASYDISCUSS_TOOLBAR_LOGOUT_DESC - "Bye for now. Come back again."

If the user is a moderator, the 'My Assigned Posts' link will only show up.

If you want to fully control the links in the 'More Settings' Dropdown Menu, you can modify from line 319 for it at the default.php file which is at the template override location.

Can you have a try and see how it goes?

I will answer your next thread's question in my next reply.

Can you include your site's access and FTP's access once at http://stackideas.com/dashboard/site so that I can have a better look of it?

Hi Irwin,

Unfortunately, I'm not authorized to give access to the site as it is restricted to specific company members only for security reasons. So I was actually able to rectify the situation with an !important at the end of the background-color for the toolbar, however where I am running into problems is that there are several other commands that cannot be overridden using my template custom.css file because of the !important statements found in the style.min.css file. Example, I needed to remove the bottom padding for the toolbar under the class '#ed .t-lg-mb--lg'. It was not possible to do this in custom.css because there is already an !important statement in the 'style.min.css file' for that class.

Instead, I had to go into style.min.css to remove the !important statement so that I could override the class in my custom.css file (I like to keep all of my custom changes together). Out of curiosity, why are there so many !important statements in the style.min.css? I'm now wondering if I will come up against other template issues somewhere else that I haven't noticed yet for having removed it?

Thanks for your thoughts on that. And thanks for help with direction on the first question regarding the dropdown menu!

Hey there,

Do you mean that you change the colors of the Easydiscuss's toolbar, it shows correctly in the EasyDiscuss page but it does not show the changes that you set for the EasyDiscuss's toolbar when you are in EasySocial page?

If yes, it seems that it is a bug.

For a temporary fix, you can download and paste the attached mod_easydiscuss_toolbar.php file into JoomlaFolder/modules/mod_easydiscuss_toolbar/mod_easydiscuss_toolbar.php.

For your information, We do not advise users to modify anything from the style.min.css file, perhaps you can share with us which part you would like to modify some of the stylings on the page so we will see if possible to provide you custom CSS to handle this.
