Mystery box I can't remove in Cambridge Pro Template by Picaflor Azul

[Feznizzle]

Hello!

I installed the template Cambridge Pro Template by Picaflor Azul and I've been screwing around, trying to figure out CSS.

Anyway, there is an empty box that shows up on the main page. I can't seem to figure out what it is or how to get rid of it.

Could somebody take a look? The site is:

I am attaching an image of the box to this post.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

No mystery - it's the #moduleMenu ID in your module tabs addon or in your template. First thing you should do is get the Firefox browser and either the Firebug plugin or the Web Developer plugin. Both will let you see where the various page elements are and where they're styled in the stylesheets.

Thanks, Stevesh!

I do have the developer plugin and did see that moduleMenu but had no clue what to do with that little insight. Problem is that I am just barely smart enough to get into trouble. :)

How would I go about disabling it or making it no-show?

One way would be to add {display: none;} to the #moduleMenu rule in stylesheet_module_tabs.css.

I'm sorry, I'm a complete newb when it comes to css. I tried it several ways to no avail.

Here is the code:

#moduleMenu { background:none; border:0px solid #000; border-bottom:0; height:30px;}
#moduleMenu span{ float:left;}
#moduleMenu span a {color:#444;display:block;outline:none;text-align:center;padding-top:5px;font-size:13px;}
#moduleMenu span a:hover {color:#990000;}
#moduleMenu span a:active {}
#featuredProducts {display:block;}
.moduleBox{background:url(../images/tab-bk.png) no-repeat;width:150px;height:30px;padding-left:5px;margin-top:-29px;}
#moduleMenu-wrapper{border:1px solid #ccc;width:95%;margin:0 auto;background:#fff;/*-moz-border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 5px;-webkit-border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 5px;-khtml-border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 5px;border-radius: 0px 5px 5px 5px;background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #ebecf0, #fff);background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0% 0%, 0% 100%, from(#ebecf0), to(#fff));background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #ebecf0, #fff);*/margin-top:45px;}

Can you show me what to do?

Thank you for your patience.

Ok, I got it by doing this:

#moduleMenu {display:none;}
#moduleMenu span{ float:left;}
#moduleMenu span a {color:#444;display:block;outline:none;text-align:center;padding-top:5px;font-size:13px;}
#moduleMenu span a:hover {color:#990000;}
#moduleMenu span a:active {}
#featuredProducts {display:none;}
.moduleBox{background:url(../images/tab-bk.png) no-repeat;width:150px;height:30px;padding-left:5px;margin-top:-29px;}
#moduleMenu-wrapper{display:none;}

But now I have another question: Is this a waste of resource? Is something happening in the background when the page loads that shouldn't be?

I don't think it would be a problem. It's just another CSS rule being processed. You could remove the moduleMenu section from the template file, but I haven't used that template so I don't know where to send you.

I just saw this post. In the future, if you post questions about the template to the appropriate template support thread I'll see the post and will be able to help you.

Thanks,

Hi Anne,

You're right, I should have done that, sorry!

I think the reason I didn't was that I'm hacking up your beautiful template, just trying understand what you did and learn css in the process. I didn't want to clutter your support thread with stuff nobody else will want/need to do.

But since I have your ear now... WOW! You are one amazingly prolific lady! I can't believe the amount of information you pack into just the installation instructions! Even supplying video tutorials to support free templates! And your coding (what I have looked at thus far) is so clean and easy to follow.

Really, I'm blown away!

Thank you so much for all that you do. And sorry for what I have done to your work. :)

I do have another question about changing your mega menu, I will post it in your support thread.

Thanks again,
Mike
