Ezpages Footer Columns support

I just added &nbsp as the title and that did it..

Actually, not really. Although that hides the title, the &nbsp can still be clicked, any suggestions ?

You can target say the third and following links in a column with something like

.ezpagesFooterCol.col1 li+li+li>a {display: none;}

This is all you need if the item in question is at the bottom of the column. If there are following links you do want to see, add another rule after the above:

.ezpagesFooterCol.col1 li+li+li+li>a {display: inline;}

Thank you gjh42, that worked very well.

For some reason, this footer displays fine in firefox and safari, but in IE 9, it's all over the place.

As soon as I remove the following define line from ezages_footer_columns_defines.php

define('EZPAGES_FOOTER_COL_COMMENT_15', '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/FB_username">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'facebookiconsm.jpg', 'Visit Us at Facebook', '', '', 'style=vertical-align:middle') .  ' Facebook') . '</a>' ;

it appears ok again (but of course lacking the facebook link)

Any ideas on this ?

See footer thumbnails of firefox and IE9.

thanks again for your help,

adam

That is really strange! Are the right-hand links .col1, with the columns floated right? That is about the only way an error there could affect the columns to the left.

I really need to see it live to help any on this.

You have an error at the end of your define```php
define('EZPAGES_FOOTER_COL_COMMENT_15', '<a href="http://www.facebook.com/FB_username">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'facebookiconsm.jpg', 'Visit Us at Facebook', '', '', 'style=vertical-align:middle') . ' Facebook') . '</a>' ;

needs to be
zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'facebookiconsm.jpg', 'Visit Us at Facebook', '', '', 'style=vertical-align:middle') .  ' Facebook' . '</a>') ;

Well gjh42, you are impressive. You were right, I had col4,3,2,1, and changed to 1,2,3,4. and fixed the float from right to left.
Thank you again, not sure why IE didnt like that. And I fixed the syntax issue, thanks for picking that up.

regards, adam.

I'm pretty sure the syntax was the real problem. Different browsers handle errors differently, and that would have left an unclosed <a> tag on the fb button, which could have easily caused problems down the road (to the left, since columns were floated right).

sorry but the first instruction is to go to
Tools > EZ-Pages > edit page

but on the ez-page there is no option that says <edit page>
??? so i seem to be lost from the get go. I searched the thread and can not find a starting point

Select an ez-page and edit it, or make a new one.

rodger that, thanks
is there a way to use a picture with a link instead of text? maybe if i have 100, 110,120,130 could i make 140 a facebook jpg img with a link to say the facebook page?

The current version of this mod does not support replacing ez-page links with images, but the new version which is ready for release does directly allow this.

In the meantime, you can add a "comment" to your link 130 which has the code for the facebook image link. The comment will appear below the ez-page link it belongs to.

And is there a way to add several lines of text about the footer ez-page box that is there now

where can i find the new version that allows for images?

thanks for the support

where can i find the new version that allows for images?As I said, "ready for release", not "released". I will be submitting updated versions of several mods in the coming days and weeks.

Clever CSS manipulation could allow the extra text you want now; the new version will allow substitution of any defined HTML string for an ez-page link.

I have just had a discussion about Multi-Language EZ-Pages which is incompatible with Ezpages Footer Columns as packaged, in Help: Footer Text link doesn't appear. There is a simple fix for combining the mods by pasting elements from EFC's includes/modules/your_template/ezpages_bar_footer.php into the Multi-Language version of that file. I will have to look in more depth to be sure there are no other merges needed, but I plan to include directions for this merge in the readme for the new version of EFC so that anyone can use them together.

Hi! Great mod. Is there a way of setting uneven column widths?
I have an image in column 5 that I'd like to have it's own column width (just for aesthetics), with 1 - 4 evenly spaced.

My site

Each column has a unique class tag like .col1, .col2, etc. Add to your stylesheet

#navSupp .col1 {width: 123px !important;}

and this will override the automatic width setting. You can use px, % or em as units; you will likely need to set all of them individually if you change one, as the others will not change to compensate for your manual setting.

That's the one, thanks for that. It was the all or nothing bit that was tripping me.

Glenn,

I am having a horrible time getting this to work on a website I am in development on here: http://armedmobilesurvivor.com

It is a 1.5.0 site - and I have the css js loader installed which minifies the css. When I turn minify on - the columns just stack up on top of each other. When I turn it OFF - then it displays properly.

I have the ezpages set up numbered 110, 120, 210, 220, etc. and have the Admin > Configuration > EZ-Pages Settings > Enable EZ-Pages Display Status - FooterBar > set to 1.

Can you tell what I have done wrong and help me fix it?

I have the CSS JS loader turned on right now so you can see it the "wrong" way. I am putting an image below.

THANKS in advance!!

I guesss we'll have to coordinate turning the css/js loader on when I'm looking, since there is nothing to diagnose otherwise. Somehow it is apparently making the columns not float left.
