template_css.css, remove "height: 18px" in class .blog_more

[alentsch]

Just a little note to all, who are like me on a steep learning curve to understand how to design nice Joomla templates from scratch with the Template Kit.

The problem (which has cost me almost a day to solve): The mosMainBody contents was running outside the contents area and entirely overlapping with contents and tables below. I finally traced the cause down to a default setting in the template_css.css. If you experience similar problems remove the "height: 18px" line in the class ".blog_more", because if there are several blog entries in the list, they are certainly higher than 18px.

In case I don't have the full picture (still learning), please correct me. At least the problem was solved for me.

Hi alentsch,

The please note that default template_css.css file is a starting point and is not going to fit every design out there without some editting or work on your part.

But rest assured that I have this in mind and have created a system that breaks down the style sheet
into smaller and easier parts to manage.


Our new Online CMS / support system will be out sometime next week in beta here you track alternative versions on the style sheets. Its beta 0.50 so there is still a ton of work but it will take care of a lot.

Also the forum system will be broken down into more logical parts.

Cheers,
