After changing to this new skin I began clicking on my board links and found that the "My Assistant" link when clicked opened a corrupt assistant box with borders of red on the edges and a lighter strip of red in the center going top to bottom. Also, the text was mostly centered in the center going down and "broken." Is there a way to adjust the My Assistant box so it loads as it did before the skin change? Is it a bug? A glitch? Is there a default code I can reinstall? Thank you. |

The way the skin was coded caused the problem. Here's how to fix it: In your Skinning and Style Sheets > Manage Style Sheets Find this section:
Change the margin element to margin:0;

There she is! ![]() Hi Helena, before I make the change I would like to ask a question for now and future reference: Whe you or another, or even if I find and add my own codes (like above) am I to clear what's already in the appropriate box and then add the new code(s), or do I add the code to what codes already there? And thank you for picking up this post/request. |

The items in the code box show the section of CSS code before and after the change to the margin setting. You can either edit the existing code to match the second instance, or you can replace the whole line of code with all the code in the second box. Sometimes, you might be instructed to add code at the bottom of your CSS. If you wanted to do it that way in this case you would ignore my instructions above and add this to the bottom of your CSS (Manage Style Sheets)
Doing that would override the first instance of the body margin command. If, instead of editing the existing code, you added the whole entire line of code listed in the second box, it would do the same thing, as long as you added it anywhere below the existing line. It would work, it's just messier. ![]() |
