[Forum] Style manager variables not working

[Smelly_Fed]

I'm attempting to adjust variables in the style manager - and they aren't taking effect.

I tried to adjust the margin in:
vbcms_navwidget_margin (Right 10)
vbcms_widget_margin (Left 10)

The margins have remained exactly the same (0).

I also tried to adjust my logo as per instructions I found in this forum and that didn't work either. I had to rename my logo the same as the one currently in use by my style and then upload over the top of the old logo.

All this leads me to believe that for some reason, changes I make in the style manager aren't taking effect.

First, you realize your link is incorrect - it has two // in it. (check vboptions > sit url/etc > the two urls you enter there should not have trailing slashes.

Second, I get this when I go to your site " The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later."

Go to your Home page and hover over the Section Title > click the pencil that appears > set the Style to Inherit (or a specific style, if that is what you want). Now see if the stylevars are working.

Fixed the slash issue but that didn't seem to correct the problem. Columns still aren't displaying margins correctly.

My host chose an inopportune time to do a cpanel update. It should be running now.

These Style Manager Vars are still not working.

You only have widgets on there and they have a left margin of 10 like you entered (vbcms_widget_margin).

I have found the best method to add padding to the middle column is to add this to additional.css instead of playing with the margins:

#gridl3_content {
padding:0 10px;


}

Thanks - but where do I edit additional css now that the Main CSS file is obsolete?

[Lynne]

It's a template, so it is listed in with the templates under the heading CSS Templates

I have (Style -> Inherit) and I want to change on Deafult Style, but I cannot change it, why?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand. If a style is available in the chooser (you have selected the checkbox in the Style Manager for the style), then it should show up in the same dropdown as Inherit and you should be able to select it for your section.
