Hi,
Yesterday I upgraded BF from 1.7.0 to 1.7.1 and found out that this is not a fast job to do when you have edited several .php and .css files.
Problem is that some css formatting is not done by the quickmode stylesheets.
Since 1.7.1 we have a few new quickmode styles, but I prefer to create my own. So I created my own but still have to edit a few files out of my own style directory (on same level as qmtheme).
So her are a few issues I want to suggest to improve:
1.) In all quickmode theme's we find the img directory containing icon_info.png. Keeping same filename I created my custom icon.
Unfortunately BF does not use this customized icon from my theme, but the one you can find in the quickmode/img directory. So I cannot use different icons for different forms and this one (when I customize that icon) will be overwritten when updating.
2.) In my custom theme folder I can edit theme.css and overrule CSS rules from system.css in quickmode folder. This works OK, because themes.css gets loaded later as system.css. But in quickmode directory we also find system.ie.css, system.ie6.css and system.ie7.css. Can you please make these .css available from the custem theme folder too?
3.) Changing size, color, character etc. parameters for captcha and refresh-captcha.png should be available as advanced properties in backend.
I would like to store my custom refresh-captcha.png in my custom theme folder, so it will not be overwritten by updating BF. Of course same for
securimage_show.php.
4.) To get a title like "refresh captcha" over the refresh-captcha.png I need to edit BFQuickMode.php in administrator/.../.../libraries/crosstec/classes. (line 1059)
5.) Same BFQuickMode.php need to be edited for customizing the "hint" wich show up at mouseover icon_info.png (line 722)
Also for this BFQuickMode.php: design should be seperated from functional code.
Hope you can look after these issues with developing next update.
Regards,
Benno
