Changed position of module, same settings, diff. bg.

Hi, I have changed the position of a module to the 'maincontent'-area, which has changed the background of the module but has left the font-settings unchanged. The module suffix is still set on dark-bg, but it shows a light bg instead. What am I doing wrong?

Could you please post an url to your site?

marie-perles.be - no www. in front. thanks!

Which module exactly? Could you please create a screenshot and mark this module on it?

I noticed that if I change the suffix to e.g. color-bg, the color of the font changes....not the title though nor the bg.
The module that I'm struggling with is the "personal + flame".

Please use Bottom1 module position instead of Mainbody. The second one has css that overrides background settings created by custom suffix. You can easily put more than one module in one module position.

Thanks! That solved one issue, but created another one. Now I see the blog articles from the QuickStart pack on top of the module "personal" and have no idea where it comes from. I've checked all module positions and settings related to the blog articles and k2 news, but I can't figure it out. Could you maybe help here as well?

Just post an empty custom html module in mainbody position to override default Joomla content.

That works indeed, but creates a white stripe in the front end due to the above mentioned CSS overriding.

That is an easy fix
Using frontpage body suffix you can hide any element only on frontpage:
Please edit: /templates/gk_john_s/css/override.css and add at its end:

Code: Select all

.frontpage #gkPageContent {display: none;}


Remember to enable "CSS override" in template settings - advanced section.

Hi, Thanks for your reply and sorry for my late response to it...

I have now added the code mentioned above, but unfortunately, the light grey bar sticks there. I have enabled the css override in the template settings as highlighted. Any idea why it's not working?

Kind regards, DM

Hi,

please remove the following code from your override.css:

Code: Select all

CODE: SELECT ALL


Best,
Dirk

Got it! Works!

Thanks nevertheless for your kind help! It was much appreciated

The "CODE: SELECT ALL" is just a snippet to easily select all text provided to paste in specific file and should never be copied itself.
