I would like to use catch responsive for a ngo-site. It has several “departments” (4-5). How can I have f. ex. different backgrounds for each department/project so that people know where they are?
I hope you can give me a good solution. Thanks in advance
January 8, 2017 at 9:23 am #106677January 8, 2017 at 6:56 pm #106693FraginoParticipantIt is not existing yet – we are in the planning phase of a transition from an old joomla site to a new wp. And it’s done for us by a sponsor – we have to tell him, what we want. I have used catch responsive in another private project and really like it – because I can feature the different main topics very nicely on the homepage.
The structure I have in mind is roughly like this (you can see a mindmap here, but it’s in German. The main points are:
There is the ngo itself (bright green), its history, reports, possibility of becoming a member and departments like the animal food bank (needs its own color/header), the wild animals outpost, …
The animal shelter and adoption are marked in yellow, here people can also find the happy-end stories of the past
The project of saving street cats is in bright orange
The blog is dark red
and then there are the “normal” pages like contact, site owner etc.
s, city shelters for pigeons and more. Also planned is a blog, information parts with downloadable leaflets, etc. The general information about how people can contributeI would love to have different headers, but at least background colors will do. Do you understand what I am looking for? (English is not my mother tongue)
Thanks for advising me.

I am not sure to understand. How can authors of a specific page or post apply a certain css class without coding knowledge?
regards
FraukeJanuary 9, 2017 at 1:52 pm #106745MaheshKeymaster@fragino: Well, actually, the other won’t to add any class to the post and pages. It automatically generates it. The thing is, for CSS to change background accordingly, those classes are necessary.

MaheshJanuary 9, 2017 at 2:33 pm #106749FraginoParticipantBut how does it know to which class it pertains as different posts/pages belong to different colors? Let’s say the animal shelter is yellow, the street cats pages are orange and the animal food table pages need to be blue. when I start creating a page I need to indicate where it belongs to, don’t I?
January 9, 2017 at 3:03 pm #106758MaheshKeymaster@fragino: You mentioned about departments. I guess categories will be used for that. And in that case, background color can be changed according to the category-class that each posts actually falls in. For pages, there won’t be such category and has to be taken care by its individual id. You won’t have to worry about how to add class or anything. Just after you put up you posts please share your site your and we’ll be happy to help you with the background color.

MaheshJanuary 9, 2017 at 8:57 pm #106784FraginoParticipantThank you Mahesh, now I understand. Is there no catch-theme where the pages can be attributed a specific bg-color and/or header without using css-classes? I wouldn’t mind using classes, but other people will not be able to do so.
