Hi there
How do I remove border from slider and pres page columns?

I’d really appreciate your help.

Thank you

Hi Liz

I think the only way to do this is using custom CSS.
The two areas you’ll need to look at are:

#slider { }
.column-image { }

the #slider { } rule just looks like getting rid of the border 7px’s and the .column-image { } you will need to get rid of the padding.

I hope this makes sense and helps.

Hi Jim

Thank you so much for getting back to me so promptly. I checked on the off chance that someone might have helped and was pleasantly surprised!

I have removed all the border values associated to the slider and all the padding associated to the column images but nothing has happened. Would you mind please having another look?

Many thanks
Liz

Hi Liz

Sorry I think I fed you some wrong information. The easiest thing to do with the slider border is to set its colour to transparent. You can do this within Parabola Settings > Color Settings > Presentation Page the just leave the field for Slider Border Color empty. I’ll do some more research and get back to you about the column borders.

I hope this helps

Hi Liz

The following custom CSS should remove the border (at least top and both sides) from your column images on the Presentation page. Just copy the code and paste it into your custom CSS area under the Parabola Miscellaneous Settings and save.

.column-image {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0 ;
position: relative;
}

I hope this does the trick!

Jim… you are my hero. Thank you.

Hi Jim

Your help worked beautifully, but now none of colour settings I’ve made will stick. I’ll make a colour choice and it won’t show on the website. Hard refreshing doesn’t help, I’ve even imported colour schemes which show once then disappear. I’ve tried removing the code you gave me but nothing helps.

Please can you give me some advice, I’d appreciate it.
Thanks
Liz

Hi Liz

I can’t think of anything that I suggested that would have affected the site as a whole. i.e. setting the slider border to transparent and changing the padding around the column images with CSS.

Sorry a bit of an obvious question but when you are changing the colours you are saving the settings you’ve made? and after that the colours you have changed to are not being displayed, even after refreshing the site?

Hi Jim

No problem, it’s often a simple and obvious mistake 🙂
But yes, I saved the settings. They show in the back-end but are not visible on the site.

I think it’s something to do with the background because I can change the font of text fine but any colour changes don’t stick.How can I get past this? Should I reset to default? Would that remove all of my content, ie slider images?

Many thanks for all of your help,
Liz

Hi Liz

Being just a humble Parabola user, I’m afraid I am as stumped as you are. I would think that resetting to default will indeed set everything back to square one. If you did go down that road I’d suggest using the Export Theme Option first and then re import them after, which should at least retain your slides etc. Only other thing I can suggest is perhaps clearing your browsers cache, as that’s what I tend to get told a lot :-).
Sounds like you probably may need someone from Cryout Creations to give further advice.
Sorry I can’t be of more help.

Arrrgggh.

Thank you so much for your help.
I think I’m going to just have to try another theme.

All the best

[Jim]

Hi Liz

If you are going to look for another theme, and rather than just doing a reset it might be worth first trying an un-install then a re-install of Parabola as I’ve not seen anyone have similar issues via this forum. If you do this then as I suggested above Export and Import your settings first.
Also have you tried using a different browser?

Good luck

Hi there,

Sorry if i dig up an old thread…

The CSS code you provide is working perfectly jim, thank you, but unfortunatly it doesn’t remove the border from the slider…

Since my background color is white, it make a small “un-aligment” that i don’t like.

I tried to find how i can remove it without success, any chance tou can help me ?
