Update, 5/14: jQuery upgraded to version 1.3.2
KickApps 4.1 includes updates to your member join and login pages. You can see what these pages will look like by visiting our staging environment at http://staging.kickapps.com/user/displayAffiliateLoginPage.kickAction.
If you're using custom CSS or JavaScript, we recommend going through both of these pages to ensure that your site looks and functions as intended. If you need to make any adjustments to your CSS or JavaScript, you can do so in your Global Page Template on staging, and then copy your changes over to the Global Page Template on your live site. As you'll see below, the new sections on the member join and login pages all use new CSS hooks, so you can target these hooks in the CSS on your live site today without affecting your pages-- the new styles will just lie dormant until the new release. Then, when the new release launches, your new and updated pages will seamlessly assume the new styles.
Please note: The staging environment is loaded with a pre-release version of KickApps 4.1, which means that we're not done testing it yet. You may see a bug or two, and some functionality will be limited (notably, you won't be able to upload videos or send e-mails out from staging).
Diagnosing any style or JS conflicts is best done with Firebug, but we've also put these annotated screenshots together to give you the lay of the land.
On the member join page, you'll find a new section that lets people join using their Facebook, Google, Yahoo, AOL, or OpenID accounts.
We've also added icons for Facebook, Google, Yahoo, AOL, and OpenID to your member login page.
The same icons also appear on your member login pop-up.
Update, 5/14: In addition to these CSS and mark-up changes, we've also upgraded our version of jQuery from 1.2.6 to 1.3.2. This upgrade contains some very minor changes that could affect any jQuery code that you've written. If you find any conflicts with custom jQuery code on your site, we recommend reading the jQuery 1.3.2 release notes and this article on upgrading to jQuery 1.3.
We hope you enjoy checking out these new features on staging. If you have any questions or feedback, please post to the KickDeveloper Message Board. For support issues, e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
