padding between cells in the home page

[keneso]

Hi,

v.1.39H

I have the categories in a single column home display, in a two column fashion, I added border to the .categoryListBoxContents, and it pushed the second column into the next row, thus I reduced the 50% column width following this:

which worked fine as the second column is now on the same row.

Problem is the two categories are attached to each other, and I'd like to add a little bit padding in between.

How can I do that?

Thank you.

As this can be template dependant
Where is your install

I am using the basic template modified by me.

You can try removing the border you currently have and adding this to the bottom of your stylesheet and see if you like it

.categoryListBoxContents img{
	border: 1px solid #000;
        padding: 1em 5em 1em 5em;
	}

I'll try it right now, but doesn't that just wrap the image letting the text out?

that just wrap the image letting the text out?

Yes and why I stated see if you like it

[keneso]

Thanks, I tried it, and indeed it wraps the image only, as I'd like to have both image, and text as a box.

The way that the space is divided up there is not enogh space to add padding or margins without forcing it to another row
You could try changing the floor to make it say 25 or so percent and pad the boxes

[keneso]

Do you mean making the change here:

includes/modules/CUSTOM/category_row.php

25 $col_width = floor(100/$num_categories) -1;
26 } else {
27 $col_width = floor(100/MAX_DISPLAY_CATEGORIES_PER_ROW) -1;
28 }

if yes, shall I change the 100, or the -1 value?
