Comstock Template

I want to center the nav bar and footer bar. how do i do that?

The links in the footer bar are centered.

To center the links (Home Login) do the following:

(1) Open includes/templates/comstock/common/tpl_header.php

find the following code:

<div id="navMain">
    <ul class="back">

Delete the portion highlighted in red, save the file and upload to your server.

(2) open includes templates/comstock/css/stylesheet/css

find the following declaration:

#navMain ul li a {
margin-right:2px;
padding:2px 10px;
background:#999;
color:#fff;
border:1px solid;
float:left;
font-weight:Bold;
line-height:14px;
text-decoration:none;
border-color:#66006B;
}

Delete the portion highlighted in red, save the file and upload to your server.

That's not what i am looking to do the links are fine where there are what i want to do is instead of haveing the sliver bar across the top i want the bar centered over the main page, i figured out how to make the bar shorter but know i just want it centered....<a href="http://keepnitrealentertainment.com/">test</a>

make the change highlighted in red in your stylesheet.css

div#mainWrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
background: #fff;
border: 1px solid #000;
text-align: left;
width: 907px;
vertical-align: top;
}

I have merge your template with another, for some reason the footer is not showing up in Firefox But its shows up In IE any idea what could cause the page to show correctly in one browser and incorrectly in the other?

Try using an unmodified version of the comstock stylesheet since that works in both browsers then start adding your modified declarations until you find where the culprit is.

Thanks for your help. would it be possible to send me the photo templates so i can change the color. What is the purpose of the black bar that says "This text can be changed in inludes/languages/english/comstock/header.php"

You can view the template changes here:
"http://www.keepnitrealentertainment.com/
The last thing i need to do after i figure out the broswer issue is change the color.

again thanks for your help.

You can use this to place your company "tagline" instead of in the header. You can use it to place "promotional/sales" text or any other information you wish.

Thanks alot By the way i love the template i just wanted to customize a bit for me thanks again.

I just installed this template for someone, but the tabbed categories aren't showing up. It's turned on in the Admin. Have I done something wrong?

just make sure the includes/templates/comstock/images is included.

the graphics for the template are in there.

Hi Clyde!

Thanks for the quick response.
The image is there and if I make a fake EZpages page, it shows up.
What's not showing up is the categories list (text version) that usually shows up on most templates when you turn the tabs on. Like in the screenshot I attached.

Personally I prefer it this way, but my friend wants them to show. LOL

I see (said the blind man!)

let me check, but I think I have the categories bar commented out by default.

Boy I hope it's something that simple! LOL

open includes/templates/comstock/common/tpl_header.php

find this code:

<!--bof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->
<!--<?php // require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php'); ?>-->
<!--eof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->

Delete the two highlights and that should take care of it.

Thanks Clyde! That worked like a charm. :smile:

I know you addressed this in this thread but I followed your instructions and the footer is still displayed wrong with IE6 but ok in FF (footer is to wide and legal info is not displayed properly in IE6)

I added this to the css in lu of orginal
#copyrightBox {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 5px;
width: 20%;
float: right;
height: 1%;
}

After close inspection of footer in FF the PayPal logo extends below the line outling the footer.

Thanks chas1
