[SOLVED] GroupJive 3.0.1 install error

Thanks for the hint on the blurb/text issue. I can fix that.

and yeah... I figured the same thing originally, with the other content... and yet... the ONLY change I made was to install GJ and the other GJ plugins.
The moment I restored the backup taken before the GJ upgrade, everything started working again. So, unfortunately, it seems that there is SOME interaction which is unaccounted for.


Regarding the new layout...
I am looking at the screen...
As you say: the group description has been moved under the (i) icon -- but this display is badly located... (IMO, I dislike this new layout - is there a tutorial on modifying the canvas?)

After taking the screen shot, and looking at the image, I realized that the tabs are there, but the color is so light as to be nearly invisible because it has inherited the CSS from the navbar >li > a (of which my top navbar has a blue background.)
I have edited the css for
.cb_template .cbTabsMenuNav > li > a, .cb_template .cbMenuNav > li > a
and the active state of that as well... but it seems to be something that would be encountered by many people who migt be using the same sort of navbar layout.

GJ is entirely template driven. You can alter it to display however you like. You can find the template files below.

components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbgroupjive/templates/default

Copy the default folder and rename it to something like mytemplate. Next delete every file you have no intention of editing (excluding index.html). Now select your template within GJ > Configuration > Parameters > General. GJ will auto inherit from default anything you don't have in your template.

I've no plans to design around overzealous templates blanket styling elements, sorry. Consult with your template developer regarding these issues. CB and our plugins are always designed with Joomla default template. We do not style or design around 3rd party templates (we don't have the time for that, sorry).

fair enough... Thanks for the pointers on the templates.
As evidenced, I can hack my way through templates and css - I just thought that I would highlight a potential overlap issue with the default navbar styling which inherits down to the CB styling instead of CB being unique.
