Hello,

This is my first message on JA. 🙂

I placed Side News module at inset2 (left) position but left and right margins are not equal. Pls see picture – SideNews module named Latest news, no-padding suffix in use.
Please help me to correct margins, I want equal spaces between columns as on homepage.

Greetings metastorm,

Please post your url here (or Pm me 🙂 ) and set Compress CSS in Template manager to No. I shall check this for you.

Unfortunately site is developing on localhost yet, so no url. 🙁 But I can give you any other code/info you needed.
Also If you check your demosite’s any article page with tp=1, there are visible extra space between middle.inset2 and middle.right1; and shorted space between content.main and middle.inset2 –

Hi metastorm again,

You can make change by using Google chrome inspect element or Firebug for Firefox. What I usually do is set Compress CSS in Template manager to No like above, then hover on any block you want and right click on it and then click on inspect element, pls try to find class that contains this css rule:


.... {
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 5px;
}

And try to reduce this value
it also shows you which CSS class it is using and which CSS file and the path to this blcok on the right side. then you can go to the file and replace it with new CSS you change.

Hope you understand for me that it’s so hard for me to give advice if I cannot see the live site to detect issue.

Hi Saguaros!

Well, I was able to get desired margins by setting:
in layout.css

#ja-main .inner {
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 0px; //was 5px

and in template.css add

.ja-inset2{
width: 25.7% !important; // this was adjusted manually to fit my columns
padding-left: 5px;
}

But then home page columns in main.content are shifting because of #ja-main .inner change. :((

Hi again,

I wish I could possibly have your site URL to detect this problem a bit further. It is extremely difficult for me otherwise, to give advice without seeing what the actual issue is. Hope you understand :((!
