Topic on Skin talk:BootStrapSkin

I finally had some time to play around with the skin a bit and tweak it according to my preferences. It's great fun but there's two things I noticed along the way:

  • Checkboxes seem to disappear with this skin, perhaps because of some js conflict.
  • Using Extension:Semantic Forms and Extension:HeaderTabs, I was not able to add new items inside the form (see this page for the functionality I'm referring to). Again I suspect a js conflict.

One of the errors reported by Firebug is TypeError: this.element.propAttr is not a function jquery.ui.button.js:59, which may or may not be relevant. I'll see what I can find to make this report more useful to you.

I've mailed a response Cavila, many thanks :)

Regarding the check boxes, I found the error, can't think why I did it, but I've included a display:none next to the radio and check box element, must have been while I was testing something or another, the quick fix is editing bootstrap-blue.css line 8119 and comment out display:none.

I have updated the extension so that this is solved, see version 0.0.41 for more info.

Have also added a section on conflicting extensions e.g. HeaderTabs.

Thanks again Cavila, you're a star :)

Just need to address SMW, will need some time to look at this, but I'd really like to get it sorted, so would appreciate a link to your site so that I can take a closer look. If its ok and you don't mind sharing you can email the link here.

OK, thanks for your e-mail and for the fix for #1!

As for #2. It's not SMW, but a form extension called Semantic Forms (SF), which is often used to facilitate data entry in SMW. The issue persists if I remove HeaderTabs tags (so we can rule out interference from HeaderTabs) and was probably there in the original Strapping skin. I'm experimenting with the skin on a private site, but you can try out a form with the "add item" feature at http://discoursedb.org/wiki/Form:Item (use a random title and have a go at "Opinions for this item"). Hope that helps.
