Hello! I have only been using Joomla for a few years and I would rate my skills as "Google it to find the answer." I am working on migrating from Joomla 2.5 to 3.x and all the updates went smoothly so now I am down to ironing out the template wrinkles.

Here is the current live 2.5 site: http://staahomeschool.com/index.php/placement-support-services
Here is the 3.x site: http://staahomeschool.com/mmp_upgrade/index.php/placement-support-services

Browsers I am using: Google Chrome and FireFox

I installed/updated the 3.x Executive template through Extensions > Manage > Install

ISSUES:
1) Notice the breadcrumbs are now different sized fonts and many have bullet points. I like the little arrow as it was before, but I want to turn off the bullet points.
2) There is now increased space around the breadcrumbs; how do I decrease that so it is like 2.5?
3) The dropdown menus in the top nav bar work in 2.5 and now 3.x; how do I fix those?
4) The search box at the top of the page changed size and looks awful, unbalanced placement of the words, box location, and magnifying glass icon.

I have a few more issues, but my brain will probably explode if I tackle them all at once. Any help or links to articles you can provide to help me refine the 3.x site's appearance will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
Bethany :)

Hi Bethany

1. To amend try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters...


.module ul.breadcrumb a {

    background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) none repeat scroll 0 0;

    padding-left: 0;

}


2. To the say field add the following..


#container_breadcrumb {

    margin: -10px 0;

    padding-bottom: 0;

}


3. May I suggest sending temporary administration access to your Joomla installation to info@joomla51.com and we will examine this issue further. For our reference please paste a link to this post in your email.

4. Also in the Custom CSS field....


#search .inputbox {

    height: auto;

    width: 200px;

}

Ciaran,

Your fixes were right on target -- thank you!

I ultimately decided to make the change to Enlighten now rather than later so I'm not sending along an e-mail. But I thank you for your help and the great templates. :)

Blessings,
Bethany
