rSOLVED ight colunm style

Hello,
I have a problem with the right column, the system doesn't always use the gray background and sometime doesn't even display the right column at all.

This is the website,

http://www.archercreative.com.au/web-ip/


And I would like to have all the pages like this, with the right colunm and grey background.
http://www.archercreative.com.au/web-ip/contact.html

But I've checked all the module and tried to use module suffix...it didn't change anything.
It looks like the page linked from the home page (a part of one - eMarketing article ) didn't picked up the css template.
Also, it looks like all the page created after the module didn't pick up the style.

Thanks for your help

Hi

There is hard coded style with this background attached to <div id="content_wrap">. There will be nothing wrong, but sometimes the module is downloaded from different file and then You need to change url to the background from url(./templates/gk_pulse/images/style1/bg_r.png) to url(../templates/gk_pulse/images/style1/bg_r.png). One dot makes this bug. To avoid this simply put it in style.

Add this to template_css.css

Code: Select all

div#content_wrap {
background-attachment:scroll;
background-color:transparent;
background-image:url(../images/style1/bg_r.png);
background-position:-320px 0;
background-repeat:repeat-y;
}


please also remove the hard coded style from this element (not neccessery, but won't generate the validate error).


I did not notice the style or column vanishing.

Hello,
thanks for this reply.
I've tried to do what you've said but I think I did something wrong because I had then another bug (see screen shot here: http://archercreative.com.au/Bug-pulse-%20Screen-shot-2010-01-12.jpg).

Also, I couldn't work out on which page is this

You need to change url to the background from url(./templates/gk_pulse/images/style1/bg_r.png) to url(../templates/gk_pulse/images/style1/bg_r.png). One dot makes this bug. To avoid this simply put it in style."


Where is is exactly?

Lastly,
"please also remove the hard coded style from this element (not neccessery, but won't generate the validate error)."


Thank you again for your time.

Hi

Add this code at the end of the templates/gk_pulse/css/template_css.css

Code: Select all

div#component {
background-color:#ffffff;
}

div#left{
background:url(../templates/gk_pulse/images/style1/bg_r.png) repeat-y 0 0;
}


I cannot check it right now. But if it works its going to solve everything (hope).

Any other ideas?

thanks

Yes, open template_css.css and edit this:

Code: Select all

div#right {
float:right;
padding:0 0 18px 1px;

change to this:

Code: Select all

div#right {
background:#YOURCOLOR url(../images/style1/bg_r.png) repeat-y scroll 0 0;
float:right;
padding:0 0 18px 1px;

Please, make sure that you put your color number or valid url to image.

Hi

We've done it by skype.

But problem with disapearing colmn at link still exist.

Well this can be cause by improper ItemID selection. This can be solved by playing with menu items....so you can create menu item that is linked to some content category or section and inside module that is in right column you define to show it on this menu item. Next you unpublish menu item, but you should still be able to see that column when you access article that belong to this category/section.

I noticed that the bg_r.png only shows on some pages with the SEO Settings to "Yes" and I get a "Resource interpreted as image but transferred with MIME type text/html" warning.
But it works well and shows up on all pages using the right column when SEO Settings are set to "No" and without a warning.

Is this due to the style being hard coded in the gk_setup.php file?

I really would like to keep SEO Settings on.

Please help.

Thanks

This solved the problem with the bg_r.png not showing up in some pages when SEO is turned on.

Hi

I'm having the same problem. I want all pages to display the right column (grey bg) like it does in the "correct" screenshot attached. At the moment it is displaying it like the "wrong" screenshot.

It used to display only the homepage's column correctly and rest with the white bg but after trying some of the corrections above all the pages are showing the wrong bg now.

I also attach my template_css.css

Not sure if these were uploaded correctly. (Attacments for previous post)

Hi

I'm not sure what you want... you need right column with grey background?
If so, the only way is to add for example this lines on template.css file.

Code: Select all

#content_wrap {background-color: #ccc!important}
#component {background-color: #fff;}
