: background pics on top row2_1
: 419neon July 14, 2015, 02:18:00 PM
i uploaded "signs_signs.jpg" to public_html/new/templates/incline/images

i then went to backgrounds, top row2 area 1 settings, custom background YES, background color EMPTY FIELD, background image name SIGNS_SIGNS.JPG, background image size 1351 x 483.

couldn't get anything but a gray screen to show up.

i know i'm asking many questions, and i'm sorry to take your time, but i just want to get the basics going.
thank you in advance...

Hello,

Please post a URL. Also try using a full URL path instead of a sub path for the background link.

Hello,

Try using a full URL path for your image. For example:

http://new.419neon.com/images/s5_media_overlay.png

here's what the url i put into the template file:
http://new.419neon.com/public_html/new/templates/incline/images/signssigns.jpg

still not working when i do the full url, but i'm guessing maybe i uploaded to the wrong place.
does it go into the root (like the video file), or somewhere else?
also, does it need to be a png (and not a jpg)?

thanks again...

best,
roger

ps-
to head off any confusion, i renamed the file since my initial email.  (so it's not a case of me incorrectly writing signssigns.jpg instead of the earlier enumerated signs_signs.jpg)...

Hello,

The URL you posted above is invalid. Try this one:

http://new.419neon.com/templates/incline/images/signssigns.jpg

I'm looking to change the background image on top row2_1. I didn't understand what you said:

:
i then went to backgrounds, top row2 area 1 settings, custom background YES, background color EMPTY FIELD, background image name 

where are you finding this?

I've looked through the template settings and can't find anything.

Thanks!

Fred

Never mind. I found it under Extensions / Templates / {click template name} / Main / Layout

Scroll down to "Top Row 2 Positions" and click this icon:

Hello,

Yes the above was from the old V3.7 layout :)

you mentioned i'm using the old version 3.7.
is there a newer incline template that i should be using?

Hello,

You can upgrade the framework to Vertex 4.0. The Template doesn't change just the engine behind it.
