Greetings,
I'm working on this Joomla 2.5.11 site with Oxygen:
http://www.santafeartist.us

I had to remove the print and email icons from articles, because they overlapped. CSS padding didn't work on the actions li, or the individual action classes.

I need to modify the .item-separator on my category blog so that the posts are separated by a line.

I'm accustomed to effectively modifying CSS for both these purposes, but none of my tricks are working.

Also, I just installed jcomments for the blog and it worked for a minute and then disappeared. I reinstalled Joomla 2.5.11 and fixed the database. I reinstalled jcomments as well and reconfigured it but it still doesn't display.

Any ideas?
thanks,
Hope

Hi Hope

Would you have a URL directly to an example of your category blog in which you wish to add the item separator?

Not sure I could help you with jComments extension as I am not very familiar with it unless the issue is linked to the template. Have you tried enabling an alternative template and seeing that the issue is still present? Ensure you enable all modules you are currently using with in the alternative template.

Hi Hope

If it is just a simple line you would like try adding the following to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters...


[code type=css].item-separator {
border-bottom: 1px solid #888888;
height: 20px;
}[/code]

There is no Custom CSS field for my template's parameters.

So I added the CSS to the bottom of the template.css file and it makes no difference. I tried this before to no avail.

I tried also creating a new custom.css file and uploading it, in case it would be seen and found lower in the cascade, but that made no difference either.

Try using the following instead...


[code type=css].item-separator {
border-bottom: 1px solid #888888 !important;
height: 20px !important;
}[/code]

That did it.
Thanks.

Have you run into the issue of the .action li items overlapping? Do I need to use padding with !importants to get them to separate? I don't want to re-enable them unless I can separate them.

thanks again,
Hope

Hi Hope

Separating them shouldn't be an issue. Would you have a URL to an example of your icons? If you could also state what browser you are using as this issue can be browser specific.

My client isn't concerned about the icons being missing for now. I will point you to a URL and give you the browser next time this happens, as it happens often for me.
