THE CONTACT FORM BUTTS UP AGAINST THE NAV BAR! It’s also not very attractive. What controls this?

SOLUTION ANYONE :((

Hi cybernun,

the contact page at your site is kind of missing the title. you can move the whole contact page down with this css


#component-contact #emailForm {
margin: 20px 0px 0px 0px;
}


Put this code into your template.css file. This works only for your contact page.

You also may want to display the modules on the left on your contact page also.

Cheers

Frank

How kind of you to take the time for this. I will try out your solution.
As far as the missing “Title.”
I was forced to stay in Joomla 1.5+ because of a major module that has not been updated. The contact page is indeed missing any option for a TITLE. Is there a way to add the Title? Isn’t that storage that it’s not there?
And yes, I will put mods to left.

Thanks much. Will get back with results. :-*:-*

Not “storage.” Meant to type “strange.” Isn’t it strange that there is no Title on Contact page.

HI PIXEL ZOMBIE–

Thanks! Your solution worked! however the “Single Contact” page was not displaying other necessary info, which leads me to believe that there’s a glitch. I switched to “Category Contacts” even though there is only one contact. I don’t know what else to do.

Your code solution (placed in template.css) does not appear to be affecting the “Category” view. Interesting. I actually don’t need to lower but interesting that it does not affect Category page layout. See here:

http://siteground210.com/~blackst5/new_joomla1.5/contact

NOW I HAVE A DIFFERENT ISSUE.

I want to change “contact details for this site” to the name of the company. Is that buried in a php or xml file?

Thank you again for your help! :-*:-*

LATEST UPDATE.

http://siteground210.com/~blackst5/n…mla1.5/contact

The Contact Form has a glitch indeed and does not look like demo. It is missing all of this above the form:

Contact form layout

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam quis enim ac dui semper tincidunt vitae id ante. Cras et aliquet tortor. Curabitur nisi mauris, vestibulum at lacinia nec, dignissim non nulla.

Vestibulum Nam tellus ac leo interdum Phasellus Donec tellus porttitor nulla. Dui sem ligula Ut vel at a volutpat Nunc non urna. Elit nascetur felis semper dictum urna habitant ut risus wisi at. Vivamus gravida vel turpis Sed dignissim Aliquam vel at lorem Proin.

Address: 249A – Ut est hendrerit – Justo tortor
Tel: (+844) 0987 5678
Email: info@your-domain.com
Website: http://www.your-domain.com
SEND US MESSAGE

I have to try and get an administrator because I do not know where to begin to fix this and am too far into customizing this template to reinstall. I will save your code and I thank you for it but I want to show a single contact (not “Category Contacts) and now have to figure out how to do that. Of course, if you know how…GREAT! :-*:-*:-*:-*

Hi there,

http://siteground210.com/~blackst5/new_joomla1.5/contact looks god to me. Compared to the JA Travel Demo site there’s a custom html module missing, that displays the information you mentioned in #6. In order to get this displayed in your contact page:

– change the menu item back to single contact
– create a custom html module with the Content you like to be placed above the contact page
– publish it in the module position content-top and make it visible in your contact page only

I think this should do the trick 🙂
If you need assistance please PM me login credentials.

Cheers

YES YES YES IT WORKED!

http://siteground210.com/~blackst5/new_joomla1.5/contact

I unpublished the contact form because I am concerned that it won’t work and it’s not great looking. I need to scramble the email and add Captcha etc but yes, that solution works and will remember in future. Aesthetically, the module bumps into the nav area and I’m not thrilled. I still have the code you sent in the template.css:
#component-contact #emailForm {
margin: 20px 0px 0px 0px;
}

but it does not lower this module. I guess because it has to be called something else?

:):):):):):)

Of course, the css works only for the old contact page. You’ve changed the look now and it looks good to me. No bumping into the nav area.

Do you need further assistance in that case?

Cheers

Frank

Thanks again, PixelZombie.
Actually, for me, the mod Title is too close to the nav so yes, if you know how to get it down that would be swell.
Decided against a form (it did not look so great) and will find a plug in that scrambles the email address.
Keeping it simple.
Working on site every day so yes, it keeps morphing. :-*:-*

Your’re welcome.


#Mod101 {
margin-top: 20px;
}


This does only work on this particular module since we approach it via it’s ID. Otherwise you would move every module on the page 20px down.

Test this out, it should work for you.

HOW DID YOU GET SO SMART. .:)
It worked.
I want to set this Thread as SOLVED but since I’m using a Custom mod instead of the Travel Contact mod, not sure. There are different solutions you gave me. What do you think?

PS: I’m going to start a new Post about something different and am hoping you’ll look out for it.

The thread can be solved, yes. You had different approaches and there are different solutions for it 🙂

I’m glad everything worked out for you!
