General Formatting Issues was created by ab
Hi there - Just installed HJ Carousel Pro..... Promising!

A couple of issues though - Please see My Test Page - The module is near the bottom of the page...

(1) How can I bold the info Line (Date & Topic) and ideally put a splitter (eg |) between date and section

(2) Can I reduce the gap between the title lines when it drops to 2 or more lines? And also maybe reduce that font? (Actually being able to limit the character / word count on titles like you can with intro text would be cool - possible?)

(3) No signs of images at all?!?!??! I have 'Hide Images' set to No and also the one about removing image tags set to 'No' as well - This just doesn't seem to be getting images??? (and when it does, how does it know how to resize them? Or is that just magic?!?!?!

Thanks for any help!

Hi,

1. This is class .small of your template. It controls both dates and author names.

2. Again, it's in your template file. Now, it's .contentheading class. To make specific settings for the module, create new lines in your CSS file, like:
{code}
.nameofcontainer .moduletable .contentheading {
font-size:12px;
}
{/code}

3. No, it doesn't resize images. I don't see image code in your module output. Are you sure you set Hide Images to NO? Will it work when you enable default Joomla template. I am asking to check if it's problem in template or module itself.

Hi Milos - Thanks for comments - I'll try tweaking the CSS

With the images, I discovered that it's 'Clean Up HTML' which causes them to disappear - Is that the way it's intended? If I set that to 'No' then the images do show.... But you'll have a lot of people confused by that I think because the 'Hide Images?' on its own set to 'No' isn't enough to show them!

Would getting the module to resize the image to a fixed width / height be too tricky to get into the module? That would really be the ideal set-up.

Congrats on this module by the way - It's got great potential to be the best in its class!

In addition to my response above, can you just help me on the CSS example you gave - .nameofcontainer .moduletable .contentheading - What would those be for this Carousel module? Or do I add it exactly like that into the CSS? Thanks!

Perhaps your images are inside the tag that was cleaned up with the Clean Up HTML option.

I don't know where exactly in your template this module is located (I mean inside what container), but you can find out this by looking the template code, or you can use Firebug extension for Firefox.

We made this module to "take" the headings and text formatting from template.

Or you can add
Code:
.hotcarousel .contentheading { ... your formatting here ... }
into template's CSS file.
