Re: How to you nudge blocks or widen your theme?
by chlockett on 2005/11/10 19:58:24

What do you mean by my "DIR listings are showing"?

Ideally, I would like to have all my menu items on the navigation bar across the top, but there are not enough buttons. Further, I am not sure how to call a module from the nav buttons. Can you educate me with that as well please?

Thanks!

look for this section (& Center Column if necessary) & change PADDING and WIDTH accordingly in your css files (style.css, stylenn.css, etc.):

/*Left Column */
td#leftcolumn { padding: 10px 15px 0 15px; width: 100px; background: #fff }
td#leftcolumn th { }
td#leftcolumn div.blockTitle {margin: 10px 0 5px 0;padding: 0;font: bold 1.2em 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Sans-Serif;}
td#leftcolumn div.blockContent { margin: 0 0 0 10px; }

make sure that you have (Admin->Prefs) update theme files (or something like that) set in order for XOOPS to make changes to the dB templates.

BTW your dir listings are showing in case you didn't know.
How to you nudge blocks or widen your theme?
by chlockett on 2005/11/10 18:23:13

I need help with me site using XMT theme.

Please check out this link:

http://www.kidscookamerica.com/modules/Top_Rated_Recipes/

or this one:

http://www.kidscookamerica.com/modules/Homeschool_Spot/

You can see on these two pages, my center column is too wide for the frame of the theme.

It appears that if I could nudge the center column to the left, I could solve that problem.

Or if I could widen the frame, it would certainly solve the problem.

My problem is, I am so new to XOOPS and programming in general, I don't know how to do that.

Because of the size of the blocks I am using, I am almost required to have the center block with width it is, so it appears to me the only alternatives are those I mentioned -- widen the whole frame, or nudge the center to the left.

Can anyone help me do that?

Thank you.
