    Because of the long descriptions, menu items flows to the second line when Main Menu is placed in the Left position. I need to have that long descriptions. How to fix the indentation? (menu.png)

    And also, I need to have the small right arrow after the next level of the menu. (breadcrumb.png)

    Please help.

    What you might want to consider doing is widening your menu and decreasing the size of the font for the menu items
    – maybe by a pixel or two.

    Hi,
    You replace this code from /templates/ja_ores/css/template.css in the line #1570

    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li.active li a {
    background: url(../images/arrow-3.gif) no-repeat scroll 5px 10px;
    color: #666 !important;
    }

    with

    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li.active li a {
    background: url(../images/arrow-3.gif) no-repeat scroll 5px 10px;
    color: #666 !important;
    padding-left: 15px;
    }

    Do you use Joomla 1.5 or 1.6?

    Actually, khoand . . . after testing your recommendation out via Firebug – that will indent the top line, but keep the indentation of the second line – so it does not really solve the indentation issue for the second line of the menu item – which, I believe, is what our friend is wanting to correct.

    You are correct Tom, I am trying to find a solution to indent the second line so that it vertically aligns.
    Dear khoand, I am using Joomla 1.5.

    Tom / Khoand,
    How do I widen the right module with out effecting the front page and blog style? I see that now the page is divided between the content and right 75% and 25%. If I can get the distribution to equal 65% and 35% then the menu can accommodate the long descriptions.
    I appreciate your help

    This can possibly be done within your Template Manager …. We can take a look, but we would need temporary access to your site Administration Backend.

    Simply click on my username (to the left of this message) and send me a private message (PM) with the login info.

    Thanks for the great news! 🙂
    I also tried changing the value at line 20 of the default.php ($this->_basewidth = 25;) and then changing the value at line 1139 (background: url(../images/grad5.gif) 715px 0% repeat-y;) in template.css to move the vertical line. This distorts the front page! I want to exclude front page left and right column sizes from this modification completely. I thought, I should let you know of my futile efforts. :-[
    Looking forward to your answer. Once again thank you.

    Dear jayatunge,

    For this issue:

    <blockquote>Because of the long descriptions, menu items flows to the second line when Main Menu is placed in the Left position. I need to have that long descriptions. How to fix the indentation? (menu.png)</blockquote>

    Please following these steps:
    – First you need to re-upload these bullets into your images folder
    – Second:

    Go to this file to modify some css lines for it working better:

    templates/ja_ores/css/template.css:

    #ja-container ul.menu li a {
    color: #666;
    display: block;
    outline: none;
    padding: 6px 0;
    text-decoration: none;
    background: url(../images/arrow-3.gif) no-repeat scroll 5px 13px;
    padding-left: 14px;
    }

    templates/ja_ores/css/template_rtl.css:

    #ja-container ul.menu li a{
    background-position: 98% -81px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    padding-left: 0px;
    }

    #ja-container ul.menu li a:hover,
    #ja-container ul.menu li a:active,
    #ja-container ul.menu li a:focus{
    background-position: 98% -81px;
    }

    #ja-container ul.menu li.active a,
    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li a,
    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li a:hover,
    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li.active a,
    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li.active li a,
    #ja-container ul.menu li.active li.active li a:hover {
    background-position: 98% -81px !important;
    }

    Hope this would work.
    Or you can wait for our new release for this soon.

    Regards,
