Amazing how the code on Ning gets captured, revamped, passed around, sold, etc...code sure looks familiar. Excellent use of this. =)

Thanks Jen. In fact, I'm inspired by you.

Hi Bernard

I was looking at your site and what you have done
Gave me a lot of inspiration

I was playing with the coding above. And realised it is only for one specified group page.
Do you know how one can turn off the Column 2 for all group pages? So they all look like your Classified Group? Rather than just one individually?

Hi Andrew,

Here is the code.

<script type="text/javascript">
if (x$(".xg_widget_groups_group_show").length > 0){
x$('.xg_span-16').css('width','982px');
x$('.xg_span-4').css('width','183px');
x$('.xg_span-12').css('width','790px');
x$('.xg_span-5').css('display','none');
x$('.nopad').css('background-color','#eef2d5');
x$('.xg_user_generated').css('width','500px');}
</script>

Thanks so much Bernard

Really appreciated

Just one thing

The code clashes with Jen's Blue Footer at the bottom of the page (The one with JenSocial Directory - Our Community - Private Ning Club)

It forces the box to move off the left hand side of the screen

Can you show me your website that I can take a close look?

Hi Bernard

The site is actually private because it is under construction.

What I have actually decided to do is something different which will work for us.

If you look at Jen's groups pages you will notice she has forced the Members Box to go right down to the bottom of the page.

Because we are not so bothered about people seeing who is a member at the beginning this is fine for us.

This means we can keep Column 2 and be able to have Txt Box Modules in there of our own making

This was easy to do with just adjusting the widths of

.xg_widget_groups .xg_span-12 and .xg_widget_groups .xg_span-4 to suit

It's different for your classified page because you want to see the members of the group easily - hence removing Column 2 altogether.

If you want I can quickly replicate the error which I mentioned and send you a screen shot for your own research

Possibly I can also see if I can see a solution - just a wee bit busy right now!

Have to give my 90yr old Dad his lunch

:)
