Hi,

http://www.dynamichcs.com/joomla16/index.php/en/

I have a few problems / questions. They are all connected to positioning things in modules.

1: My language switcher is currently in the slidshow module. In other templates I have tried, when the order is set, one item appears AFTER the other, but in JA Rave, the Language switcher is partially covered by the slideshow. Can I make one show above the other?

2: I want my logo to be the size it is, but it overlaps the horizontal rule instead of pushing it down. How can I solve that?

3: I would prefer if my language switcher could be to the left of my search box, and right of my logo, but I can’t order the items in the module to make that work out. If I put the Language switcher in the search module, and order them 1 & 2, they aren’t next to each other ot one above the other, the language switcher appears INSIDE the search box! Can I make the language switcher be left of the search box?

Sorry..maybe this is too much???

4: I have tried to find a way to widen the left module (where I currently have 2 menus and breadcrumbs). I can’t find a way, and I looked in the CSS. Help please??

Thanks so much in advance!

=> you open the template.css file and find the following code :

h1.logo { width: 162px; height: 40px; }

you adjust value for the height attribute to resolve above issues.

=> You come to the template configuration then click to the layout tab => Edit the Default Layout => You find

<block name=”inset1″ width=”18″>left</block>

you adjust value for the width attribute to change the column ‘s width

Thank you so much.
I fixed the menu width and the logo height issues.
I would now like to use the space above the search box to place my language switcher. It is currently in the slideshow module. That way, the available space will not be wasted.
I have included a capture, that I hope you can read. I don’t have proper capture software that can easily add text.
I will be changing the language switcher module to display text instead of flags

Thank you.
I added the css you wrote, but then I needed to modify it because that the language switcher was still overlapping the search box.
