Friends,

Been working hard at learning BBB and it's structure. Finally and progressing.

Started to work on a rough BBB theme and will share in git-hub once completed.

When changing values in theme.css, images to match the theme I am designing. The top bar of each window is still

blue. I didn't see in the .css file the color attributes to modify.

Secondly, the default.ppt /.pdf is loaded into the whiteboard after joining the client. I tried to remove the location of the file and it

keeps re-appearing. How to include my logo into the whiteboard as default?

Thank You for your time and help!

tvos,

beans.presentationService.defaultUploadedPresentation= in
bigbluebutton.properties. determines the presentation loaded... you
can add your logo to one page pdf, and replace /var/www/bigbluebutton-
default/default.pdf and your log will show.

The whiteboard has no canvas, it just writes on the slides loaded in
presentation, SO if you load 2 page default presentation, 1st with
logo, second with blank page, you can flip to blank whiteboard and
draw.

don't forget to do bbb-conf ---clean, after you change default.pdf,
so you will pull new presentation when meeting is recreated.

regards.

Hi Stephen,

Are you referring to the bbb client that needs to be edited and compiled?

What I did do is remove the default.pdf, created my own default pdf using photoshop. Ran

bbb-conf --clean command and it works... that's one way around it. I made adjustment to the theme

and cleaned it up a lot for better presentation.

I did notice is that the whiteboard would sometimes not compliment the resolution of the pdf so
I had to play around with the image size to fit. Was wondering if there was a way to have the pdf

or image fill the window as re-sizing occurs?

Thank You for your help,

Dave

Hi Stephen,

Appreciate the information and it worked for the default.pdf suggestion. Although, I left the default static

and just used my own pdf creation. Executed bbb-conf --clean and it updates just well.

Still a mystery as to why the client loads the modules WAN and not LAN based. I tested this in diff browsers

and indeed cleared the cache, history, temp files etc. I was a little confused when you asked about clearing the cache,

thought it was referring to a bbb command to clear cache local to the server and not web browser.

These are what my config.xml files look like:

Var\www\bbb\client\conf

\home\firstuser\dev\bigbluebutton\bigbluebutton-client\client\conf

and

\home\firstuser\dev\bigbluebutton\bigbluebutton-client\bin

I do appreciate your help and taking your time out and assisting.

Thank You,

David

Can you post you whole config.xml in
\home\firstuser\dev\bigbluebutton\bigbluebutton-client\client\conf?

And also /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bigbluebutton

And /etc/bigbluebutton/nginx/client.nginx

Hi Rich,

As requested, tried uploading but the group doesn't like the file so I will copy paste into three posts for

easy viewing.

Please note that I did change the WAN IP address in the files to: 98.250.69.33 which isn't my server.

Hope this helps and Thank You,

Dave

Hello Stephen,

When you have a moment, please review the code and see if anything jumps out at you.

Again, Thank You for your help!

if the problem is you can access BBB outside your router/firewall fine
with the public IP-Address, but when you try from inside your lan on
pc with everything still set with public ip then check the faqs on how
to test for complete details, but you can map host on internal pcs, to
a qualified domain name for it to work both internally and externally.

so map your IP to a domain and follow faq.

"Internally, BigBlueButton must be able to call external.host.org to
make API requests. In this example, if the internal BigBlueButton
server is at 192.168.10.198, add the following line to /etc/hosts
(you'll need to edit this file as root user).
192.168.10.198 external.host.org"

I can access BBB demo local ip and external wan before I started my branding.

After that whole process of setting up. I can only access BBB from the wan. If I change

the ip address thru setip to my lan, I can't access it internal.

If the IP address is set to external to wan IP, I can access it. I don't think that is the problem

with the config file hosts being changed.

When I call the demo room, login - it is trying to load the client but just sits there. So I am

making contact to the client locally.

Any other ideas, please advise.

Dave
