Hi

You can use a custom-html module loading an image inside it and publish it in that position, use the suffix grid-2×2 grid-pos-1

Hi where does the suffix go? Also I’d like to create a size not in the defaults; 4×2. How can I do this?
Thanks!

Thank you. However when I change the suffix in the custom module to 3×2 it still comes up as 2×2.

Hi

Did you managed to solve it ? or you still need help ?

still need help. I can get the image loading in the right size container but the image loads really small, despite setting the size in html. Firebug shows me the problem. I need the div class before the image to not have the 3×2

needs to look like this then the image fills the whole space. Where do I edit this though?

Hi

Your problem seems due to an override in custom.css file at line 19

img {
max-width: none !important;
}
try to remove it and verify again

I’m sorry, I can’t find this text.. I only have two custom.css files and can’t seem to find it in either.:confused:

I figured out the problem on my own (but don’t really understand the solution).
I had a comma in the module class suffix box.

Image fills full box: grid-3×2 grid-pos-1
Image tiny in corner of box: grid-3×2, grid-pos-1

thanks

pinakidou, I had a lot of problems with the masshead module – I found it easier to create a custom html module, where I placed the image in the main area and set the position as home-1 or whatever position your gray banner is in (not sure if you are using fixel as your website doesn’t really look like it). You won’t have to use css or php to do this, it’s an easier solution. hope this helps 🙂

Thank you for your time regeneron.
I tried it and it works but it’s probably not for my situation as I wanted to have the images show like a banner at the top of the article…….

Hi,
i am trying to make a Fixel based website…
I started from quickstart and here is what i did:
1. unpublished JA masshead module
2. created new custom html module with position: home-1, suffix: grid-2×2 grid-pos-1 (nope, no commas or other funny stuff inside the suffix, it is pasted here as it is ‘there’), inserted a image into it, published the module on home page

Result is that it shows in the correct (first) position and it is 2×2 but the image inside is 75x75px top left aligned instead of the full size (600x600px, 2×2)

I did not edit any php/css/hmtl, yet 🙂

Please help me show the image as expected, thanks!
