I am adding custom CSS to the Basic Template application, and want to use a webfont for some of the text. Is this possible with the custom CSS tool? I have played around with the @font-face rule in the CSS, thinking that this might provide a workaround, but to no avail. I feel that there is something that I am not quite grasping, as I am new to CSS and HTML. Here was what I used: @font-face {     font-family: 'Open Sans Condensed', sans-serif;     src: url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans+Condensed:300); } #title { font-family : 'Open Sans Condensed', sans-serif !important; } From what I can understand after some googling, it seems that webfonts may only be able to be imported in the HTML of a page, and then utilised with CSS. Is this correct? EDIT: SOLVED! I came across this on StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14676613/how-to-import-google-web-font-in-css-file Here is the CSS that finally got me the result: @import url(https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans+Condensed:300); #title { font-family : 'Open Sans Condensed', sans-serif; } I think that one key thing to mention, that is covered in that StackOverflow discussion, is that the @import line needs to sit in the top line of your CSS. ...

When I post a link to one of our Story Map Journals on Facebook I am getting a less than ideal preview. Here is an example: The title and text are not very good for promotional purposes. The HTML snippet looks especially terrible. I am sure that Facebook used to allow the user to edit these before you posted, but that feature appears to have disappeared. We would like to promote this via our organisation's Facebook page, but I am certain that the marketing folk will not get on board if it looks like this. Is there anything I can do with an Esri hosted Story Map to ensure that the title and text are more "share friendly"? ... View more

I have been adding some custom CSS to the Basic Template application to try and bring the design more in line with our organisation's branding. I have been mostly successful, but am having trouble changing anything relating to the search button. Currently it still has a grey colour by default, which changes to white on hover. I want to change those colours. I managed to make changes to the colour and hover colour for the search input bar, but this has stumped me. What class or id should I be looking for? Any suggestions would be great. ... View more

I have just tried to use continuous collection on one of my projects and have discovered that it is not working. The Continuous collection panel does not appear immediately (or at all) after having collected a feature. I did some testing , with other projects and other login profiles, and discovered that the problem is unique to this particular project. It has worked in previous iterations of this same project earlier in my testing phase. As far as I was aware the continuous collection was no more than a setting at the app level. Is there potentially something that I could have done while building the map or data-set to prevent continuous collection? I am using Collector 10.3.1 on iOS. Any advice would be appreciated. ...
