Revert from changes made by easy customization

[Stumpy]

So I read the Blog about the new changes, saw the part about completly removing the footer and thought "YEAH". Did that, great. Also saw the quote:

"Pros who choose to completely turn of SmugMug’s footer can now optionally add the feeds links back in using the Easy Customizer."

Sounds straightforward enough, so I did just that. Then I looked at my page and ALL MY MONTHS OF HARD WORK HAS BEEN OBLITERATED!!!!!!!!!

NOTE: I was able to figure out how to revert back to my page before this mess, so I have now cooled off and am only mildly irritated.

BUT, I would like someone to tell me how to put the feeds back in without changing the entire look of my site. AND please tell me WHY you would post such an obviously WRONG statement on the blog?????

Thanks,

1. I would like someone to tell me how to override the "Easy" customization changes.

2, I would like someone to tell me how to put the feeds back in without changing the entire look of my site.

www.kellerphotographic.com (http://www.kellerphotographic.com) Go to the easy customizer and pick "Start Over". That will remove all the changes put in by the easy customizer and will not touch your own CSS customizations.

The easy customizer is not compatible with your own customizations or many themes. It is most useful if you have no other customizations or if you use it first and then add your own customizations on top of it (but it's a pain to override). If you know how to do your own CSS and plan on doing that, then I personally would not use the easy customizer because it interferes to much with your own CSS. It could have been built to be more complimentary, but it is not currently implemented that way.

Thanks, I was able to figure this out just before you replied.

So I had used the EZC but I decided to get rid of it b/c it wasn't customizable enough. I figured I should just learn css. So thats where I am now. I have a very loose handle on CSS. I can't figure out how to get rid of the smugmug header. I searched the forums but I must say the "search" on Dgrin isn't very helpful. any help?

You should be able to turn it off in your main customization panel.....or you can add this to your CSS:




#header_wrapper
{display:none;}
