My apologies! Figured out that I needed to use the WP YouTube Lyte widget, just popped up on my end.

Thank you so much Roman! I used a plug-in called User Menus and it worked like a charm!

Hey Roman,

I created this button using the Theme My Login plug-in. It’s a page created using that plug-in, and I customized the menu item at the top to look like a button. Is there a way that you know of in which any chosen menu item can go away when a user is logged in?

This worked like a charm, thank you so much!

Hey Roman,

In the screenshot link below you’ll see an image which sits on top of a white background, but then there’s another background behind the white background that’s grey. In the “Colors” option when I’m customizing my platform, there isn’t an option to change the color of the white background that’s present. Is there a special code I can use to change this white background to the grey color I’m using?

It looks like the white background is an automatic setting that’s embedded into the Alizee them itself, but I’m not entirely sure.

This worked perfectly, thank you so much Roman! Also thanks for the source, really appreciate that.

Hey Roman,

So I’ve changed the way my home-screen looks here: https://thecollegexchange.com/

Is there a way that I can turn the white background into any color that I want and manipulate it in different ways such as adding a border around it?

Thank you!
Milton

Thank you for this Roman. When I use this code, the transparent callout appears to give a white color for the background rather than actually transparent. Do you have an idea for why it would be doing that?

Hey Roman,

Thank you for this line of code! I think this is a great work around. By any chance, is there another call-out for the overflow-y section besides just the scroll? The reason why I ask is because the other menu items don’t need the scroll and was wondering if there was another call-out that could essentially work for the other shorter menu items. But in general, would love to know if there are any call-outs besides the “scroll.”

Best,
Milton

Got it, thank you so much!

Hey Jeff!

If you’re referring to how I added the feature of forcing my users to verify their email accounts, it’s under the “Notifications” extension of Theme My Login in the “User Activation Notification” section. Specifically, you guys offer this line of code that creates a link users can press to verify their account: %activation_url%

I haven’t created anything else and am wondering if there’s something I can do to tell users on my platform to check their emails to verify their account. Because at the moment when a user clicks register they’re just sent back to the home page, and when they click the “activate account” link in the email, they’re sent to a page that looks like this:
https://thecollegexchange.com/activate/?key=i6syhkPiFztHtF4a6pBB&login=Miltonkd17

I would rather a user be sent to a page, or for a notification to pop up, that tells them to verify their email instead of sending them to the home page after they click register. I would also prefer the activation page when they click the link in their email to lead them to a page with a title that says “Account Activated” instead of “Activate” as shown in the link I sent. Is this possible?

Here’s the snip of the “Activate” page in case the link I sent you doesn’t work:

Thank you so much for this information Roman!

Thank you for the link! But is there a proper way to create this custom file? There doesn’t seem to be an explanation for this process as I’ve looked around.

Hey Jeff,

Thank you so much for the follow-up. I realized that the permalink was different for the page that popped up when I clicked log-in from the registration page. So I changed the URL slug, and that appeared to do the trick. Thanks again for the help!

Best,
Milton

Thank you so much for this update, it works amazingly! The automatic option seemed to stall in the loading process, so I went through the manual uploads, and they’re great. Thanks again!
