jba9 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 Hi Website: standrewskirk.org Current building this up for launch later this month, looking for a wee bit of help in getting the front page right. I current have the carousel running on the frontpage, i prefer not to have this at all, however when i set the page to have nothing in this section, i get whitespace, i cant find any setting to get rid of this? any help. (the carousel is there so there is no whitespace just now) Also have some previous questions which i still need help with: http://www.pagelines.com/forum/discussion/11647/change-branding-header-to-transparent-footer-setting#Item_7 thanks in advance.

catrina 103 Report post Posted July 31, 2011 Can you please remove the carousel so that I can see the white space and figure out how to hide it? Please read the docs before posting.

Kate 3 Report post Posted August 1, 2011 That's because the #dynamic-content div has a min-height set. Please try this: #dynamic-content{min-height:100px !important;} (You could even set it at a lower value if you wanted to.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jba9 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2011 Hi Kate,,, thanks for the answer back... that work great. Nearly there with the questions i have... one last one now I think for a while.... the footer I would like centred, with no black background beyond the 960 width. placed this in custom code, however it does not work,,, check out the site... #footer {width: 960px; margin: 0 auto: background-color: #000;} any ideas? Thanks again, Jeremy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kastelic 6 Report post Posted August 1, 2011 Your syntax is a little messed up, it should be like this: #footer{ margin: 0 auto; background-color:black; width:960px; } I think the only problem you had was a colon instead of a semicolon after the "auto".

jba9 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2011 Hi kastelic The above code worked... to a degree... thanks! I have temporarily changed the background to white for the footer, if you go to the page, you will see black bars at the side still - can I get rid of them? Thanks Again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kate 3 Report post Posted August 2, 2011 That background color that you still see is actually the body background. You can change it via the Design Control area in the Settings admin panel. (You could also modify it with CSS.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jba9 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2011 Hi.... sorry, not what i really need, i need the background image which i current have to go right to the bottom of the page, keeping the footer in the middle. Need this as we will be wrapping the website in different promos/colours during the year. again thanks for help Jeremy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kastelic 6 Report post Posted August 2, 2011 The element you have set the background for (#page) sits at the top the the footer, so you won't be able to extend it down. The only way is to set that as the background for the #site or body elements and setting #footer to transparent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kate 3 Report post Posted August 3, 2011 Following the steps in my previous post (without any code) should get you there The option is in Settings->Design Control. Then, for the footer, add this to your custom CSS: #footer{background:transparent !important;} Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
