SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
Hi there m3talc0re,

Awesome work with all your theme's btw, but I've a slight issue with the SlickPro Gaphite one.

I've a Joomla site at 1024px width with the SMF board wrapped into the site using the SMF bridge. Problem is that the menu's for 'Search' and 'Quick links' when clicked, are misaligned. The 'Search' appears under 'Logout' and the 'Quick links' appears off the right of the page. This is because the site is designed and restricted to 1024px wide for compatibility reasons, and the Drop down/Overlapping content script by dymanicdrive.com isn't working properly. It appears to be positioning the menu's as if the forum was 100% wdith.

Do you know of a way to make the dynamicdrive script position the menu's correctly?

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
I'm not sure why it's doing that, but on the drop down divs, inside of index.template.php, try adding margin-left:-60px; and see if that helps. You'll probably have to increase or decrease the number of pixels, but you get the idea.

The real hell is your life gone wrong.

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
Thanks for the reply, are these the lines you mean to change in the index.template.php and have I done it right?

Code:
<DIV id="subcontent" style="position:absolute; border: 2px solid #3d3d3d; background-color: white; width: 210px; padding: 2px; display:none; margin-left:-60px">
...
<DIV id="quicklinks" style="position:absolute; border: 2px solid #3d3d3d; background-color: white; width: 150px; padding: 2px; display:none; margin-left:-60px">

Because if so, then unfortunately that doesn't work. More likely I've done something wrong though, so if you can let me know what I should have done, or if you've any other ideas I'd be really grateful.

Thanks.  Smiley

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
Hello,

I have the same problem actually. And my topics are reaching the left and right side of the screen, which isn't normal because normally there is a border. It is only the case when I'm not logged in. When I'm logged in, there is no problem at all.

One more thing, if I'm not wrong, I think there was no problem in the beginning, and suddenly there is.

Please somebody help ...

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
I need links and/or screenshots, without 'em, I can't really debug the problem.

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
I have removed the option which require registration. You can see the topics are touching the border of the screen and the options are not arranged well.

Here you have an additional screenshot:



Once more, when registered and logged in, there is no problem anymore.  Confused Confused

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
Forum link:
http://www.digitalreport.net/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,32/

Or without the Joomla wrapping -
http://www.digitalreport.net/forum

With the wrapped forum, the larger the horizontal screen resolution, the further the menu's are off (<1280px is ok), but with the unwrapped forum, the menu's are fine whatever the resolution.

As the forum width isn't flexible, is it possible to position the menu's relative to the centre point in the screen?

i.e
Centre = Horizontal resolution / 2
Search position = Centre -  100px
QuickLinks position = Centre + 300px

Search position = Centre - 100px
QuickLinks position = Centre + 300px

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
I'm trying to figure it out. I'm trying to replicate the problem so I can debug it and fix it. At the very least, find out what's causing it and try to prevent it or counteract it. But at the moment, I can't replicate the problem Undecided You aren't the only one I've seen with this problem, so it's got to be something, I just don't know what yet...

Re: SlickPro Graphite - menu positioning/alignment
Okay, I think i've figured something out. In your template, you have this: <div class="wrapper">

Before that, put this: <div align="center"> and then close it at the end of the template of course.

Now in the template_css.css (http://www.digitalreport.net/templates/rt_carbonation/css/template_css.css), you have this:
Code:
div.wrapper
{
margin: auto;
position: relative;
}

Comment out the margin: auto; so it's /*margin: auto;*/

This should work for you, let me know how it goes. Btw, this was a major pain in the ass to figure out Tongue

Many thanks for your efforts m3talc0re, it really is appreciated, I'll try them when I get home this evening and report back how I get on.

Thanks again Smiley
