Hi,

It would be possible to add a id on body.
Thus, the use of Custom.css would be more flexible.

For example, with <body id="home"> I could target only the form of connection.
#home #main-content form { width:400px... }

Currently, if I apply this style, it is applied to all the pages.

Thanks!

Hi Djulia,

We could probably do that. Do you have an idea for a naming scheme?

For example:
body-login (for login forms)
body-sectionName (for each section name)
body-admin (for admin pages)
etc?

We'll have to make sure it doesn't conflict.

Hi Dave,

Currently, I see :

-- No connected --
body-login (for login forms)
body-forgotPassword (for forgotPassword forms)

-- Connected --
Would It be possible to take values of the URL?
body-accounts (for menu=accounts)
body-sectionName (for each section name)

body-sectionName-actionName (for each action on section name)
or
body-actionName (for each actionName)

Thanks for your feedback! :)

Little off topic but could the flash uploader be replaced with a jquery alternative, at the moment we can only switch it off but the functionality is great but flash is increasingly less supported on devices. Could you possibly look in to this for future updates?

Hi Zaba,

We current use a component called http://www.uploadify.com/ which is actually jQuery and flash. We're thinking about switching to http://www.plupload.com/ which works with HTML5 as well.

Was there some specific devices you wanted to support?

Hi Djulia,

Thanks for the feedback, we'll get this added for the next beta.

What if we had:
menu-menuName and
action-actionName

And we put those in the body? Would that allow you to do everything you wanted to do?

Thanks!

Hi Dave, its mainly apple products that have taken the step to actively phase out any flash support. I use Mac myself and although it is still supported on desktop, the safari browser, my browser of choice is often grinding to a halt or performance diminishes when encountering flash so much so that I have disabled it in my browser. I think we are seeing a future emerging without flash as mobile flash development has ceased and I am sure this will extend to desktop as adobe works on adapting it to modern open standards such as html 5 and jquery. Anyway I just wondered if you had looked at this one as an alternative.

Hi Dave,

Yes, I think that it will be possible to target all the pages.

Thanks!

Zaba,

Thanks, I'll check it out. We're working on an updated uploader for an upcoming version so that might prove useful.

Cheers!
