Access Theme

Update: 21 January 2010
Access has a new home on our site here: Access theme for activeCollab. It's still FREE but we're asking people to register so we can better keep you up to date on new releases etc. Thanks, Leon. (btw, we also have other activeCollab themes available now!)

Update: 3 August 2009
I'm happy to announce the release of Access 1.0 (final) today. Thank you to everyone who reported bugs, suggested ideas and supported us throughout the development process!

We wrote a quick blog post about it, updated the main Access theme page and have added it to the downloads section here - so plenty of ways to get your copy ;)

A lot of time has gone into creating this theme - if you like the theme a blog post about it or link back to us would be fantastic! :)

Thanks,

Leon / Creative World

Hi all,

I've created a theme called Access to offer aC users something a little different. Using web 2.0 influences, Access is designed with a soft, easy to view interface while still highlighting important events and actions to the user.

Features:

- Wide layout - Access uses more of your screen space.
- Colours! Colours on recent comments, tickets, completed tasks etc. help view different activities.
- Streamlined dashboard - Improved to see more ‘at a glance’.
- Highlighted pined objects - Highlighted in red text to show its extra important.
- Plus LOTS more…

Updates, more information, screen shots etc. can be found on the official Access page

Hope you guys like it - it's only version 0.1 so please report any bugs, issues etc. I'm also open to any idea's on how it can be further improved.

Cheers, Leon.

Thanks for the note forestcall - I already replied to you by email, but just to keep the community in the loop >

I've taken a look at the 'ticket page view hack' by ncrossland (which is a great hack) and implemented to my aC - it's working for me with the Access theme without any problems. Did you clear your cache and/or temp files? Is anyone else getting this problem?

I'll have some styles to support this hack available in Access 0.2, BUT I suggest that the hack be changed slightly. Currently it uses inline styles, so I suggest they be moved to the theme CSS file where designers can have better control over it (keeping the code and design separate).

ps- happy to hear you like the theme :)

Thanks Mark - I've noted your points and they should be fixed in Access 0.2.

Btw- I must have overlooked your 'ticket page view hack' ... I had a look just now and it looks awesome.. I'll probably implement it over the next few days. I'm also happy to hear it works with the Access theme :)

Wow, I love the Access theme - I've just bought activeCollab and it's the first thing installed!
However my login screen now looks very dodgy :(

I've got good CSS knowledge so I'm sure I can hack it, but would you like a screenshot?

Yours,
Chris

Thanks Leon, speedy reply!
I can wait for the upgrade - very nice theme :)

Yours,
Chris
