Ezpages Footer Columns support

[willie bee]

GOD! I want to stick a hot fork in my ear and twist it. What a bone head mistake on my end.

Anyways, I highly recommend this footer mod over the others. Great support and MUCH easier to customize.

I have attached the final example from our site.

Hey I noticed that at the bottom the credit card images are gone. Is there a way to add that back on? I think leaving it at the bottom is good as it clears up real estate from having to put it in a sidebox.

Do you want the cc images below the footer columns (in the white area), or in empty space in the column area?
For the white area, add the cc image code to tpl_footer.php the same as you had it before (probably).
For cc images in a column, define them as a "comment" to one or two of the links, per the directions in the readme.

Just installed and confirmed all 6 files are there and dated 5/21/11

But there is no footer menu added to bottom of site. Ezpages enable footer set to 1, but nothing?

UPDATE: I figured it out. Forgot to create the menu link in Ezpage settings

On my footer how can I center so the top row shifts to the left?

AND, how can I continue to make a Second and third row?

Hey guy, This is what I used to figure stuff like that out. Download the Firefox plugin Firebug and look at the css and play with it. It will make real time changes on your screen so you can see what it looks like and then you can make the real changes your self.

If you need more help let me know.

Thanks but I am NOT a programmer and am just looking for the specific edits I need to make for centering the footer menus and also to add a 2nd and 3rd row or continue adding links.

So hoping the Mod author can add his expertise here.

You have this rule in one of your stylesheets (probably your main stylesheet.css, but I can't tell for sure since you have them minified which removes all formatting and comments and mashes them all together):

#navSupp ul{color:#fff;text-decoration:none;position:absolute;top:7px;float:left;margin:auto 0 auto 250px;padding-top:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:0;white-space:nowrap}

This gives a 250px left margin. You have a lot of non-standard rules in that area which seem to have come from some other mod, unless you actually wrote them all specifically for something. Some of these rules are overriding the Ezpages Footer Column style rules.

You say "add a 2nd and 3rd row"... do you mean add a 2nd and 3rd column?
What are the sort orders (for the footer) on your ez-pages? They are all in .col1, which means they all start with 1. If you want them in separate columns, you have to start them with different numbers, as the readme describes. The links are displaying in a row instead of a column because one of the other rules overrides this mod's rule about the layout.

#navSupp ul li{text-align:left;float:left;margin-left:0;padding-left:0;display:inline}
#navSupp ul li a, #navCatTabs ul li a{text-decoration:none;padding:0 0.5em;margin:0;color:#fff;text-align:left;white-space:nowrap}

This rule, probably at the bottom of your stylesheet.css, has an error that causes CSS to ignore all following rules (all of the stylesheet_ezpages_footer_columns.css rules).

#paypaldp-cc-ownerf,#paypaldp-cc-ownerl,#paypaldp-cc-number,#paypaldp-cc-expires-month,#paypaldp-cc-expires-year,#paypaldp-cc-cvv
{font-size:14px;{

Change that to } . This will most likely let the footer columns rules overide the other rules mentioned above.

Thanks for responding.

I am not sure what you are referring to..??

Re: "You say "add a 2nd and 3rd row"... do you mean add a 2nd and 3rd column?"

No, I mean actually continung with adding more menu links that will continue to a second row, 3rd row , etc.....like the bottom of this site:

It would be easier than having to create Sub-mini menus as described in the read me.
