UI.X 2 [Paid] 2.3.7.0.0

I can't find where to put the background image to the node anymore.
Where should I go?

Are you talking about for an individual node, or for all nodes?

Of the single node

Of the single node

With the Nodes addon installed, you'll go to Forums -> Node Layout & Styling, select the node you want to add the background to, and then check the "Use custom value" for "Background image". You'll then want to put the URL to where the image is stored in that field (so you'll need to upload it to your web server or some image hosting service, or upload it via XF's content management if you're on XF Cloud).

Once that's done you'll want to make sure node styling is enabled for your prefered style(s) (you can just select the style in question you want to enable styling on in the dropdown on that page where it lists out the nodes for styling, and then click the "Enable styling for style" button at the top).

So...if you have a site with 2 UI.X themes, one light one dark on XF 2.2...How would you upgrading to the XF2.3 version with variation support?

Depending on how old you're upgrading from, you might be better off re-creating your customizations in a new child style.

However, in most cases, you should be able to do the following:

Copy your light child style (where you did all your customizations - hopefully you did this ) to be a child of the Variations style, and enable Variations on the new child.

This will at least give you a solid baseline to work from.

Next, you'll want to manually copy over your color customizations put into your dark style into the dark color variations of your new child style. In case you weren't aware, an easy way to see what settings you've changed in a style is to go to Appearance -> Styles, click the 3 dot menu next to your dark child style, and select "Customized Components" (I am ashamed that it took me way too long to realize that was there when I first got started in XF theme dev).

@Dark_Riddles Hey there, did you use the coupon code during chekout ?

Regards, SyTry

Correct; Due to a weird deploy bug (and being super busy with client work ) we're currently not able to update the checkout process that shows the coupon codes as being available (despite having them disabled), but the code itself is no longer active.

I will note that AC.UI can still be had for free - https://community.audent.io/landing/ace-for-xenforo/

Ok, thank you. What options do I have if I can't pay by PayPal?

For theme purchases we currently only accept payments via Paypal; I'm assuming the reason for the request is due to PayPal itself being blocked?

In 2.3 themes, how do I set a custom navigation tab icon?

PayPal can't accept the cards I have.

The process has actually changed with XF 2.3, and we haven't updated that documentation yet.

You'll basically want to set a custom class on the navigation entry, and then add the icon via CSS. As an example, let's say I set the class "myNewNav1" on a nav item, like so:



I'll then go into extra.less, and add this:

.p-navEl-link:not(.mdi):not(.fa)[data-nav-id].myNewNav1:before {
    .m-faIcon(@fa-var-solid-comment-alt);
}

You'll change the value of @fa-var-solid-comment-alt to match the icon you want to use. You can find the icons available in your XF install folder under /styles/fa - just pick the icon style you want (such as solid in the above example, and then you'll see a list of icons available. So, for example, you can use fa-var-solid-air-freshener, or fa-var-light-acorn, etc.

PayPal can't accept the cards I have.

Ah; unfortunately I don't think we'll be able to help in this case, as we most likely wouldn't be able to process them either.
