System messages

Hello Ciarán,

I would like to format a system message tha is being displayed when public users klick a restricted menu item.
The system message is displayed in the vertical middel of the homepage and doesn't realy fit into the homepage design.
I only found real complicated stuff on the net on how to adjust system messages.
On the Joomla forum somebody told me system messages are controlled by the template.
Is this true and can I format the system message some how, maybe CSS?

This is the message I'm actually talking about:

Thanks and regards,

Marek

Hi Marek

Would you have a URL to an example of your system message?

Yes, did I get your wrong?
The question is, is this message being controlled by the template (Arkadia) or by Joomla itsselve?
I would like to change the text and the design of this message.

My apologies. What I mean is that when we click on the gold coin we are directed back to the homepage but no alert message is displayed.

It is likely the text is obtained from one of your language files (../languages). Once we can see an example of the alert message we should be able to create some CSS to style it to your taste.

This Joomla is realy giving me a hard time

I analyzed the message with Firebug and this is the html-code:



<div class="message">

<div id="system-message-container">

<div id="system-message">

<div class="alert alert-message">

<a class="close" title="×" data-dismiss="alert">×</a>

<h4 class="alert-heading">Nachricht</h4>

<div>

<div class="alert-message">YOU HAVE NO ACCESS TO THIS PAGE</div>

</div>

</div>

</div>

</div>

</div>

But I don't now if it comes from language files.

The CSS is from bootstrap.css



.alert {

    background-color: #fcf8e3;

    border: 1px solid #fbeed5;

    border-radius: 4px;

    color: #c09853;

    margin-bottom: 18px;

    padding: 8px 35px 8px 14px;

    text-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5);

Is this information usefull to you?

Thank you

The following should do the trick for you which can be added to the Custom CSS field of your templates parameters (edit to taste)...

.alert.alert-message {

    background-color: #fcf8e3;

    border: 1px solid #fbeed5;

    border-radius: 4px;

    color: #c09853;

    margin-bottom: 18px;

    padding: 8px 35px 8px 14px;

    text-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5);

}
