module installed in mambo but background is way to wide??? 6 years, 5 months ago #158

Hi
hope you had a nice vacation if thats where you've been

first i want to say thanks for the module, nice one

It took me a while to get the path right for it to display... in the end i found removing the / before the suggested default path worked for me.

I now have the module displaying the vertical wimpy skin in the right side panel.
however i have a problem with the background around the module which is the correct height but double width, which sticks out at the right side of my template.

i have tried to alter the parameters inside the wimpy.html file for size but this only changes the size of the skin not the background.

any help would be really appreciated.

thanks in advance

My Vacation was awesome. Was not anywhere near a computer and well the rest is history. So here we go...

In some situations you need to edit the mod_wimpy.php file. Look for this on Line 31:

 
$content = '<IFRAME src="'.$wimpyHTML.'" name="wimpy" width="'.$wimpyWidth.'" height="'.$wimpyHeight.'" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" ></IFRAME>';
 


Change the Width and Height to static numbers like this:

 
$content = '<center><IFRAME src="'.$wimpyHTML.'" name="wimpy" width="139" height="209" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" ></IFRAME></center>';
 


This will fix it to a width. Somehow the php file cannot translate the correct size and the auto feature does not seem to work. So in this case just manually assign it.

Good Luck!

Thanks! I have been working on this template for a few days. These phpBB templates take a while to edit. A complete pain in the butt too. Good luck with the module.
