Hi guys, I have a question: I am using ‘Mailchimp’ instead of Acymailing. I have made a custom module with the code from Mailchimp. http://www.madebysanders.nl/happenenstappenpapendrecht.nl/

Is there a way to make it look more like the demo page? (white box with background image) Thanks

Hi
in demo we use Acymailing module.
Here are the settings for the module in this documentation.

If you want to apply style to another module, I suggest you use firebug/inspect element from the browser to check the style and override the using custom.css file.

Regards

Hi Pankaj,

I am no code writer, more a graphic designer, so I have no idea.
I have added a background image in the background in the custom.module/options.
The only thing I need is the code, so the white frame would show around 75% width

Hi
Use this code to apply the bg image

.custom #mc_embed_signup   {
    background-image: url(/images/happenstappen_back.jpg); 
   }
   #mc_embed_signup .mc-field-group input {background:#fff;}
#mc_embed_signup .mc-field-group label {color:#fff}

Regards

Thank you for you’re effort Pankaj,
but sadly that is not what I am looking for.

I only wanted the white frame/block to be smaller,
so on the sides -left and right- you would see the background picture.
I am going to try something else.
Thanks anyway.

Goodmorning Pankaj,
Nice to see that you are not giving up 🙂

Here are the screenshots, the background image is oké,
I only miss the smaller block on top.

Hi
Add this code in custom.css file

.custom #mc_embed_signup {
    max-width: 800px;
    margin: 0 auto;
}

If you do not want to show bg image remove this code from custom.css

.custom #mc_embed_signup {
    background-image: url(/images/happenstappen_back.jpg); }

Regards
