I would like to change the “Featured News box” to be 450px x 280px. But when I make the change in the module manager setting, it only re-size my images to 450×280, leaving the featured news “box” unchanged as the default size of 490 x 280 (as you can see the box borderline).

Also, there is a blank row in the featured news box, I assume is from displaying the “thumbnails” of the featured stories, but sine i have disabled that setting in the module manager (“Show image on normal frontpage article” setting), why that blank row is still showing?

Please refer to my demo link: http://jlamp.district279.org/

Thanks for your help.

The box that contained this module has the width equal to a half of width for the main area, this is set in the template back-end >> layout setting, In the template back-end if you go to edit the default layout you would see this defined tag
<block name=”topsl1″ type=”spotlight” special=”left” specialwidth=”50″ main-inner=”1″ >sl1-1,sl1-2,sl1-3</block>

here you can see the box has a special width of 50%, Feel free to decrease this value to a 49%, 48%..so on, i hope that would help

Also, there is a blank row in the featured news box, I assume is from displaying the “thumbnails” of the featured stories, but sine i have disabled that setting in the module manager (“Show image on normal frontpage article” setting), why that blank row is still showing?

you can open the file of templates/ja_nex/html/mod_janews_featured/nex/style.css looking for this css settings

.ja-zinfp-normal-wrap {
border-top: 1px solid #E5E5E5
padding: 20px 10px 10px;
}
change it to

.ja-zinfp-normal-wrap {
border-top: 1px solid #E5E5E5

}

Hi,

This was working before, until I updated the JA nex template now it’s all mess up… when I change the feature box width, the other two modules that’s in the SL1-2 and SL1-3 position now moved to the next row below feature news, and the width also became narrower for those 2 modules. Can you help me fix that? see url below:

Thanks!!
