Joomla Templates

Hi I really love the theme, but is there a way to get rid of the side menu and open up the entire space? reason be, I need to wrap forums, a gallery and calendar, and with the menu it has to use scroll bars. I would also like to center the top menu buttons.

Thanks

Hi,

Do you want to remove it completely?

We're working on a collapsible sidebar version so you can have it some pages and not on others. Not ready yet though as we have a tonne of stuff to do.

If you simply want to remove the sidebar completely just remove this from your css:

#left {
float: left;
width: 166px;
position: relative;
}

And then make your #content div wider to take up the space.

We have removed 166px on the left so well ad this to width: 638px; making it 804px if my math is ok? Like the below:

#content{
width: 804px;
float: right;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-right: 30px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
padding-left: 14px;
}

You may find you can remove some of the left padding also and add this to the total width.

To center the nav try adding this to #Nav

margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

oh and you should remove the div id left and everthing in it from index.php

oh and how do you remove the "Welcome to the Frontpage" off of the frontpage. in Joomla 1.0 i knew how to do it...

It worked!! Thank you it's slowly becoming what we need. Oh I hope you don't mind...I slightly edited the body.png to get rid of the left menu line. Now as far as template editing goes, can i tweak the shades of grey to match the rest of my site?

no problem - change it as much as you need to

To edit the frontpage title go to menu manager and choose home - edit Parameters - System

ok slight problem: at the bottom of the page, the footer is split up in half or tiled? check it out to see:

hmmm not sure how that happened...

you should set footer to have the width of the rest of the site (the container around the top part) and then give it:

margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

this will center it.
