Centering articles in Transbear 2 Years, 4 Months ago Karma: 0
I apologize in advance if this has been answered before but I did search and couldn't find an answer.

What I am attempting to accomplish is to have every article centered by default. I've put 2 sample links below to illustrate my question. I am totally clueless when it comes to CSS and am really hoping that someone will take pity on me and steer me in the correct direction to correct this issue.

Thank you in advance!

Hi CGFestival. I looked at both examples, it looks like they're centered already. Do you want the titles and forms centered also?

Shouldn't be too hard to sort out if you do. I'll be happy to do the css for you, but just trying to understand what you're after.

Nice looking site by the way :)

Hmmm what menu are you using. It's coming out inside a HTML table, which is adding padding around all the menu items.

Also I was playing around with centering the content and the form looks very odd when centered. The varying widths of the form labels means the form fields don't align. Looks more professional when the align.

I'm probably not explaining correctly what I'm hoping to accomplish. I'm attempting to center the article (not the actual text) in the white section. I'm probably not making any sense at all. LOL

And thank you for the compliment on the site...it's still a long way from being done.

I'm attempting to find a way to have accordion menus in the left "bar". Any suggestions?

Hi CG,
There are a large number of accordion menus at:
extensions.joomla.org/extensions/structu...tems/ accordion-menus

Let me know if you have tried any of these.

I note as Bambi did, your top menu it is not aligned correctly - I think you may not have set this to 'list' in the module parameters? Try that.

Re article centering - I personally don't like the way this looks in most cases, but you should be able to achieve it site wide by finding adding text-align:center; to the following code block in your CSS:

#content (line 131)

Just put text-align:center; inside the { } on its own line.

Thanks Big Bear! I fixed the top menu bar. I think I'm going to give up on trying to center the article, I'm afraid I'd just screw it up! LOL

I have Glossy Accordion Menu installed and I'm attempting to figure out how to edit the look of it and how to set up the links. I'm really hoping I haven't bitten off more than I can chew! LOL

Thanks again for all the help!
