    Hi,
    I want to reduce the space between my breadcrumbs and the slideshow module. I can’t find the correct part of the css?
    See image and also: http://www.dynamichcs.com/joomla16/index.php/en/dhcs-products

    I just don’t want so much empty space. I have been able to change the spacing of other things, but not this. Perhaps I’m not looking at the correct code?

    Thank you,

    You could edit the css as per below but I think that would adjust the spacing of all your modules at the bottom.


    div.ja-moduletable, div.moduletable {
    margin-bottom: 10px;
    margin-top: 0;
    padding: 0 0 20px;
    position: relative;

    }

    So maybe it is better to go into the template manager and change the navhelper from a spotlight block to a raw block.

    Sorry, but you lost me. I tried varoius adjustments to the css you indicated above, but nothing made a difference. As for changing the navhelper from a spotliht block to a raw block, I have no idea how to do that.

    I just feel that there is too much wasted space in that prime location.

    Thanks for your effort.

    Thanks for your PM/

    You had the breadcrumbs placed in the User1 position which explains the “Spotlight” I mentioned earlier.

    So first thing I did was to add a breadcrumbs clock in your template manager by editing the default layout and adding the code as per below

    <block name="breadcrums" type="navhelper" main-inner="1"></block>

    Then published the breadcrumbs module so it appears there. As you are using J1.6 you can tick or untick the “You Are Here” box in the Joomla back end. You also now have a “Top” link on the right but we can remove that if required.

    You still have some space but less than before. If you want to reduce that further then adjust template.css at around line 580 and reduce the 20px highlighted in red below to your needs.


    #ja-container .main {
    border-left: 1px solid #DDDDDD;
    border-right: 1px solid #DDDDDD;
    padding: 20px 0 0;

    }

    Thanks. It’s great. How do I get rid of the “Top” link?

    You could simply get rid of “main menu” by adding this code:

    #ja-mainnav {
    display: none;
    }

    to the end of templates/ja_rave/css/template.css

    Well, that would get rid of the whole top menu. I just want to get rid of the word ‘Top’ as in this capture.

    Your template is customized, could you give a link site for us to check?

    You could get rid of “top” link by add this css code:

    .main-inner1 .ja-links{
    display:none;
    }

    to the end of templates/ja_rave/css/template.css

    Thanks for your PM today.

    We simply need to edit templates>ja_rave>blocks>navhelper.php to remove the “Top”.

    If you drop me a PM with ftp and admin access again I will make the edit.

    We should simply be able to get rid of a line like the one below.

    <li class="top"><a href="<?php echo $this->getCurrentURL();?>#Top" title="Back to Top"><?php echo JText::_('Top') ?></a></li>

    I currently do not have that template installed on my localhost (my windows bok died at the weekend and I have yet to re-install everything) so that might not be the correct code but given ftp access I cna make the edit very quickly.

    I’ve copied the navhelper.php file from the plugins folder and removed the line I showed above. Hope that helps.
