Shape 5

Have an issue with the calender icon not showing, not sure if its the component (auction factory) that causes it or something else, but would appreciate a hint on where to look :)

See attached screenshot what I mean.

Hello,

Please post a url to where this occurs.

Hi...

Site are not open but you can log in with: demo/demo at http://www.musikkauksjon.no

Add a new auction on the topmenu : "Ny auksjon" (http://musikkauksjon.no/legg-inn-auksjon)

You will see the calender icon for start and stop date for auction is only a blue square...

Hello,

It's really an issue with the extension, because they're not providing any styling for it themselves and relying on the default "btn button" styling form the template. In short it's going to stylize like a typical button. You can try adding the following to css to make it better though:

.auction_edit_field_input button {
margin:0px !important;
color:#FFFFFF !important;
height:auto !important;
}


.auction_edit_field_input button i {
color:#FFFFFF !important;
display:block !important;
background-image:url(../../images/bootstrap/glyphicons-halflings.png) !important;
}

Thanks for suggestion.

I added the code to template.css, but still not looks like wanted Im afraid. I tried the same component with your bluegroup template, and there the button comes as wanted, with a calender icon.

I've attached a screenshot with the look after I edited the css file, and another screenshot when using the Bluegroup template. From my understanding this is a template issue as the calnder icon are looking as supposed to in other joomla templates?

Hello,

If you can private message me ftp access I can try a few other things. This is definitely not a template issue though, all that the css above is doing is adding the missing css that the component is not supplying.

PM sent with ftp login for you.

If its not a template issue, why does it display correct on all standard templates within joomla, and also on older Shape5 templates?

I installed the site with siteshaper of the GCK template at first, but decided to use the helion template, and just downloaded the template and istalled it, not with siteshaper, dont know if thats maybe are a reason?

Hello,

It's fixed now. I removed an !important call on the buttons for the template which sets the background of buttons. The only difference between Helion and Bluegroup is that important call. My point still stands though that the extension should be providing its own css for this to avoid any problems with this. Right now the extension is relying almost entirely on the template for styling.

Looking great now, thank you!

Have another question about the menu as well, maybe you want me to make a new thread, or is it ok to continue in this one?

Have adjusted the menu to align right in s5_flex_menu.css, line 279 (float:right;) ...but then also the ordering of menu and menu-pictures (if used) was aligned right.

Are there maybe a better way to align menu to right but keep the ordering and menu-pictures aligned left?

Hello,

We don't provide services for modifying the menu. I would suggest using firebug to make these changes. You probably need a float:left or a text-align call on the menu's LI calls.
