Anytime, Jon! Glad to help. :)
Of course! This makes sense, I just missed that little bit about adding your own box id to the home page display. Thanks Anna!
Jon
Hi Jon!
While there is no option for an Info/Alert box for each group, you can still add an RSS feed box to your group homepages. :)
Just create the RSS feed box on any page in any guide (you can even create a guide just for homepage boxes, if you…
Hello,I would LOVE to be able to define a unique Info/Alert Box (I) for each group home page. For example, we have a group set up for library events and I want to be able to bring in an rss feed from our library news site.Thanks for your considerati…
Hi, I would also like to see a tighter integration of the "external" guides Jon suggests, but also by
-- having them show up in the Browse All Guides A-Z list -- folks around here frequently forget that these only show up in Browse All by Subject

Sounds like a great idea, Jon! :)
If anyone else is interested, please leave a message here & I'll pass on the interest to the tech team.

Hey Jon - JC got the one on the browse page & I let him know about the subject search page as well, so I'm sure he'll get that one set soon.
Let me know if you find any others... :)
Thanks
Anna

Will do - I'll let you know when I hear back from him. :)
I asked Marc about this one and he thought it was a good idea. He asked me to post here in the Lounge.Basically, I'm wondering if the functionality that allows you to
associate web pages from outside the system to specific subject
categories could a…
Anna,
Just noticed an area where the search is still showing up - on the browse page (we have CampusGuides) - here is a link: http://libguides.wwu.edu/browse.php
Can you also ask JC to put a span around this search box?
Thanks--Jon
Hey Anna,
That did the trick! I really appreciate your help.
Best,
Jon
Hi again, Jon -
JC added a span around the search box on the main CampusGuides page, so .lgsearch {display: none;} should work for everything in your system now. Please check it out & let me know if it's working properly for you.
Thanks!
Anna :)
Ahhh...didn't realize it was CampusGuides and didn't know the .lgsearch class wouldn't work for the CampusGuides main homepage. I'm going to go back to the tech folks and find out how to make this work for you...I'll write again as soon as I hear fr…
Thanks Anna! Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem with this method and CampusGuides. Setting display to none for class .lgsearch works for everything except for the home page. Here is a link to our home page: http://libguides.wwu.edu/index.php…
Hi Jon -
You're right, you can use CSS to hide the search, and there are actually a few different options.
Hide all search boxes (home page and on guides):
.lgsearch { display: none; }
Hide the search box on guides only:
td .lgsearch { display…
