Just noticed this. Member.php still works fine and members can login and view etc. But the header/footer design elements I had before to look like the rest of my site are no longer there. It's simply a white page with the member login stuff. Any idea why?
I'd love to know the "how to" with these as after the upgrade I lost the header/footer design elements to match the rest of my site. The documentation here still says to edit the header/footer.html files but the only bit of code in those are a short php code.
Starting from 3.2.3 the header / footer template edits should happen in your amember/templates/layout.html file. Move the edits there and you should be good.
You also can restore old header/footer templates and replace current templates, this will work as well.
Well, that's the problem. I don't see the 'old' header/footer files anymore. My header / footer html files only have a bit of php code in them as follows: header.html {php} echo amember_get_header($this->_tpl_vars); {/php} footer.html {php} echo amember_get_footer($this->_tpl_vars); {/php}
That's my problem though. The header/footer html files only have a small bit of php code in them. I don't see the old changes I made for the last version.
Obviously not or I wouldn't be asking for other directions. I didn't think it would be necessary as upgrades don't, usually, affect things like this. Lesson learned... That being said... are there directions anywhere to establish NEW ones with the new version?
@footman: You should contact your Host support, sometimes they maintain backups and can restore your old template files for you to work off of. Regarding the new version, open the layout.html file, fairly straightforward. If you do have specific questions though post back here and we'll do what we can to assist you.
I know always easy to remind need for backups after the event but in this case you must have modified the originals on a local computer. Did you actually delete these files from that computer? They could still be lurking about there forgotten by you!!
The basic css for the sign up form and the members page is still like the old setup, I've just lost the header/footer stuff along with the background. No I don't have anything on my computer and hadn't noticed it wasn't correct till recently.
