Hi guys,

after playing around for hours, trying all the different configuration options, checking the forum and googling for help, I decided to ask for your help.

my site is http://www.partekosme.gr.

I am using Joomla 1.5.7 IE7/FF3 and issue is with both.

1. text overlaps
2. I cannot change the color of the text
3. I cannot change the height of the box

It doesn't matter what values I use, they don't have any effect!

Any idea how to solve this.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You should check your permiss, try to change to 755, too if you continue having issues with this module, send me your joomla access to see it.

Hi MarielaV,

thanks for your suggestion.

I did it change the permissions and I am playing around again with different settings.

After discovering that the settings in "Animation speed" and "Animation Interval" influense havily the whole picture I was able to improve what this module is producing.

I will continue my experiments and hope I can change the font color also.

By the way, do you have any idea how to change the heigt of the box where the messages appear so it will not overlap with my Mainmenu in FF.

Thanks and have a nice evening.

Hi,

from the 3 issues I reported 2 are solved also with help from your colleague from Portugal.

The only thing I would like to know is how to change the scroling text color? It not working when I do it in the back end.
Whatever hex value I use the color remain the same.

Thanks

Hi man,

thanks a lot!
I am glad that you know what you are talking about.
I don't care if I can change it in the back end or directly by editing the .css file.
Issue solved, please close this ticket.

Have a nice evening and Kind Regards,:)

Your welcome ;)

Well, the problem from back end configuration, sometimes it depends on the template CSS.

One suggestion:
Why don't you change the slide effect to a different one, like fade or something else. Scroll seams not to be best option in your case.

Cheers ;)

Hi, sorry to bother you guys. I have a simlar problem with the color. I know I can change the color by overwriting it in css like this,

p.gk_news_show_news_text {
color:#000000;
}
h4.ta_left a{
color: #9C346F;
background: #ffffff;
}
h4.ta_left a:hover{
color: #DC6900;
}
and so on.

But I have more than one modules using this extension module, I gave each of them different suffix, how can I make each of them have different color for gk_news_show_news_text or h4.ta_left a????

Many thanks,
