I am trying to adjust the size of the background so it is only a little bigger than the text. Phil told me to it adjusted to size depending on the text, but doing so did not make a difference
Also how do you adjust the placement of the text? The text in the center footer is right up against the edge where the left and right are indented.
Picture attached.
Thank you,
Raider

March 15, 2012 at 4:39 am #443721Hey Raider:
You know the drill . . . need the url to the site you’re working on – and set “Optimize CSS” to “No” within your Template Manager–General Settings. Then I’ll take a look for you and try to guide you in the right direction.😎
March 15, 2012 at 1:52 pm #443788Hey Tom,
Darn I thought I put that on… http://www.westsidesewing.com
Optimize CSS is set to no.
Is it true you were the creator of Joomla? 🙂
Thanks,

Within the following file path –> /plugins/system/jat3/jat3/base-themes/default/css/template.css
at line 912, you will see the following:[
.wrap {
}
what you want to do is add a “height” property to this class – for example:
.wrap {
height: 125px;
}of course, you can play around with the pixel value for the height until you arrive at the result you like best.
the other thing you will see that you need to do is modify the height of the border line between the modules, the CSS for which can be found at the following file path –> /templates/ja_nex/css/template.css at line 985 …. (suggested modification below)
#ja-botsl2 .list-item {
border-left: 1px solid #333333;
height: 60px;
float: left;
padding: 25px 0 40px;
width: 33%;}<em>@fbnraider 307558 wrote:</em><blockquote>Also how do you adjust the placement of the text? The text in the center footer is right up against the edge where the left and right are indented.</blockquote>
To center the text within that center box, delete the “width” property from the last CSS noted above (as below)
#ja-botsl2 .list-item {
border-left: 1px solid #333333;
height: 60px;
float: left;
padding: 25px 0 40px;}<em>@fbnraider 307558 wrote:</em><blockquote>Is it true you were the creator of Joomla?</blockquote>

That’s strange . . . . because when I tested them out in Firebug, they worked just fine. :confused:March 15, 2012 at 10:29 pm #443878I made the changes you told me to and even upload them to the website this time…
Speaking of Firebug and Chrome tools, in your “Web Development Essentials” you talk about editing is there a way to save them other than backfire? I was not able to figure out how to get backfire to work….

To be honest, I actually don’t ever try to save the testing I do via Firebug or Chrome Inspector
– via backfire or some other similar application.March 15, 2012 at 10:57 pm #443885I see what you are saying now, but how would I center the text in center of the center footer?
And how can I get all the text up closer to the top of the box?
Thanks,

This is what my previous suggestion was for . . .
To center the text within that center box, delete the “width” property from /templates/ja_nex/css/template.cssat line 985
. . . so that it will look as follows:
#ja-botsl2 .list-item {
border-left: 1px solid #333333;
height: 60px;
padding: 25px 0 40px;
}
March 16, 2012 at 1:48 am #443896Tom,
I am getting close, but would you please look again… One thing I am wondering about is I have 2 Left and 1 Right.. not sure if that means anything. But Attached is what i have and what I want.
Thank you,

Tom,
I did what you said with no luck. I tried using the way the original NEX template with how it had the HUBS FEATURES COMPANY columns, but with same code it combined all three columns.
I tried setting it to right footer, no luck.
Help Please,
Raider -
