    Leo – I am really struggling with the homepage still. None of the hompages call the CTA widgets properly. and now with the 2.7.1 upgrade all of them bar Home Page SImple add a blue bar at the bottom which is a comments area accruing to firebug.

    Little help?

    That problem is fixed!

    It turns out wordpress micromanages the widget’s layout a little too much. It was quite an intensive project getting it to work. Now your widgets look proper. In fact, if you change your CSS a bit, you will also get those nice gradient headers (otherwise your going to keep your blank-clean ones). Your choice, but looking good!

    For gradient widget headers see here: http://www.clipartillustration.com/

    I’ll have some more today. But so far so good. Give clean-theme a rest for now. Besides you will be able to change quite a few things to bring about a similar look. If I’m not mistaken Amanda is working up a clean-theme update.

    Just let me know when you are ready and where I can download it from. Looking forward to the changes you have implemented.

    I have Symbio version 2.6.6 and no Updates available in my Control Panel. How come? Cannot see updates for Plugins too…I think something happens but I don’t know what to do.

    2.7.1 is still in beta testing right now. I am sure Leo will release it soon after we are thru pulling it apart and putting it back together again. It is looking very nice at this point. Something to look forward to.

    Better that all the previous! Huge visual improvements.

    Have you read the thread – 2.7* is a beta version, very different to 2.6.5 so do some reading before you update ? It will not appear as an update to 2.6.5 you need to download and install as you did to start with

    Edit: This comes across as a bit harsher than I intended – take a look at other sites running this and check the threads before you take the plunge. It does look good, just different to existing

    Thank you Christine, second your oppinion, if I will install this version there will be incompatibilities with the way of work of my site? Search problems or something like this? Did you installed it?

    I tried with the other Symbio site stockphotos.ezeepics.com I removed Symbiostock from the WP-CONTENT folder and I installed the beta version. I kept the Clean theme. But I created a mess. How can I apply it to food.ezeepics in order to not loose nothing? If I will uninstall the old Symbiostock I will loose everything? Help!

    After installing the Symbiostock beta on this site http://stockphotos.ezeepics.com/ I have the following issues:
    1) Search box inexistent and very uggly (I don’t know what is that) in top of Home
    2) Fonts doesn’t change when I try to Customize, it’s applying only the fonts from the SYSEXtra layout
    3)Uggly layout in the image page – the prices table which is all messy, look at this: http://stockphotos.ezeepics.com/image/valencian-paella/
    4) Cannot collect Search Terms in Sys Extra – I get errors
    5) Don’t have size of full width of the screen like I have on food.ezeepics.com

    Who can give me a hand to fix these issues?

    What’s the best practice for going from 2.6.5 to 2.7.x? I’m not in production yet, so I’m not worried about putting the beta on I just want to minimize issues/data loss as much as possible.

    My recommendations for those that want to try this beta test:

    [list=*]
    [*]If you have Clean Theme and Sysextra do not try this beta test. The authors of those themes and plug ins need time to work with Leo to work out any compatibilty issues.[/*]
    [*]Do this is a test environment only.[/*]
    [*]Be prepared to redo your widget locations as many will move or be deleted when you install this beta[/*]
    [*]Have a sample of what your home page looks like before installation[/*]
    [/list]

    That is just my two cents worth of experience.
