Scroll Bar for Latest Activity on Home Page / Profile Pages

Scrollable Latest Activity / Scroll Through Latest Activity On Home Page / Profile Pages

I'm not too much into the scrolling comments walls, and such. But this particular little tweak, I like a lot. It will add a vertical scroll bar to your Latest Activity module on the home page. If you only have 4 postings selected, the bar may not show up with 500 height. You can adjust the height to suit your preference.

Add this CSS to Manage/Appearance/Advanced CSS, at bottom.

/* Scroll Bar for Latest Activity */
.xg_widget_main .xg_module_activity .xg_module_body {height: 500px;overflow : auto;position:relative;}

To scroll your Latest Activity on Member Profiles too, just remove the main page class, like this:
.xg_module_activity .xg_module_body {height: 500px;overflow : auto;position:relative;}

Will send screen shot later. On the road. I pulled the code for the moment. Looks the problem started after Ning added the quick links according to my administrator.

Hi Jen,

Here is the screen capture and the CSS code below.

/* Scroll Bar for Latest Activity */
.xg_widget_main .xg_module_activity .xg_module_body {height: 250px;overflow : auto;position:relative;}

FYI: I can scroll the activity feed from within that blank area just below the header.

Any tweaks we can do to fix this?

hi Andrew,

I'm sorry to say, I wouldn't know any other way of applying the scroll to Latest Activity. This is a first for me, the split screen. It could be something else causing it, I suppose. But, I can't test since I can't get the same results. If I think of anything, I'll sure let you know.

Best Regards,

Jen

FYI: the split is just below the header for the activity feed on the main page.
