2 Different Issues with Front Page News

Hi david892

I’m sorry this might not be of much use but as regards the border around the frontpage new item this is as far as I can tell it stems from this in the template.css;

.img-border {
padding: 4px;
background: #5E1F10;
border: 1px solid #643112;
margin-right: 10px;
}

However if you remove this from the template.css file it will have an effect on a variety of modules and this might not be what you want. I have looked at the modules for the frontpage news but haven’t been able to find any mention of it and wonder if it is a ‘hidden class’ atrribute on by default. Hidden classes can be specified in the module manager but you need to hear from someone who really knows this module inside out.

I’m thinking the second question would probably need changes to the module css. Might be worth posting here – Template modifications requests

I don’t know if you might find something here –

Hi david892

OK before you do anything you should make copies of the files you want to change using your file manager or ftp program.

To take out this border you need to go to Extensions/Template Manager/JA_Uvite and then click on edit css. You’ll then be able to access the ja.news.fp.css file and, if you want , to the ja.news.css. Find these lines –

In the ja.news.fp.css:

#jahl-newsitem img {
background: #5E1F10;
border: 1px solid #643112;
padding: 4px;
margin: 15px 0;
}

For no border at all take out the border and padding lines or if unsure you could change them to

#jahl-newsitem img {
background: #5E1F10;
border: 0px solid #643112;
padding: 0px;
margin: 15px 0;
}

Its the padding that makes the difference because the image is set against a background.

In the ja.news.css:

.jazin-content img {
background: #5E1F10;
border: 1px solid #643112;
margin: 10px 0;
padding: 4px;
}

again change the padding and border.

I’m also assuming you should probably remove the background since the image will now cover it completely.

It will be in these files that you would change the title postion aswell.

Let me know how you get on!

Great news!
