    Default Media Collection Format Problem

    I've downloaded the music clips and when checking the media collection block on the website it does appear with clips downloaded. My problem the songs appear in a row [horizontal] distored manner, check emusic-cd.com/index.php?main_page=product_music_info&products_id=106
    I would like them to appear in a vertical order like the track listing. I do not mind the order they'll appear as long as the customer can click on the song. I've check the thread, say that you can edit the appearance at /includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/templates/tpl_modules_media_manager.php. I'm using silverfish and the above pathway does not appear. Lets hope that I find the pathway, can someone help me on which parts need to be edited and how?

    If you switch to another template, does the same problem occur?
    Perhaps it's a CSS problem?

    You can try a few things:

    a) alter the CSS to make the display-box wider, and even force them to be shown on new lines individually

    or, you might try naming the clips with much shorter names so they fit in the box without wrapping.

    b) you could optionally insert <br /> tags into the template between entries (although that's not always the best approach !! )

    c) you could alter the template in other ways, perhaps converting to use an unordered list instead of the default div's.

    Try adding this in your stylesheet:

    Code:
    #mediaTypeLink {clear: both;}
    If you want to make the whole box a little narrower, try changing the 100% to something smaller here:
    Code:
    #mediaManager {
    	width: 100%;
