FrontEnd Users and layout problem

Post by hlloyge »

Hello everyone!

I'm new in this CMS thingies, tried various systems, found them too complicated to even start with, and this one is pretty self-explainatory. Well done to the developers.
Now, I've made one simple web site to use from within our intranet; site is setup on CentOS v4.4, using:

mysql  Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.20, for redhat-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 4.3
Server version: Apache/2.0.52
PHP 4.3.9 (cgi) (built: Jul 12 2006 13:40:25)
CMS Made Simple 1.0.4 "Lanai"
CustomContent 1.4.4
FrontEndUsers 1.1.3-beta1

And everything is working fine. Except one thing; I can't seem to get username-password thingie to look nice. These screenshots will show you what I mean:

Before login:
http://i14.tinypic.com/4haawj5.png

After login:
http://i5.tinypic.com/2eeh111.png

Why is that? I'd like this login and password would be there where I put it, but centered. And that bottom part of the page doesn't spread like that, as seen on "after" picture. Please tell me where should I look to fix these two things. Login could be in some "box" underneath the menu, and when logged in, welcome text shouldn't be this close to the menu. How to achieve this? It works, it doesn't just look very nice

Excuse me if I seem dumb, but my knowledge of web site building stopped with ordinary html, css is something I don't know much about... and I've searche d the forum, but couldn't find anything that would help me.

Thank you all.

[added later] It's the same on Firefox 2 and IE7.

the login form is designed in a template in the frontend users module admin panel and can be customized there, the logout form template is in a similar template in the feu module admin

the normal way to make these things look good is to style them using css.... otherwise, you may want to modify the template in the FEU module to use a table or whatever.

If you can't bother explaining your problem well, you shouldn't expect much in the way of assistance.

OK, I will handle login somehow... but what about bottom of the page getting torn apart when loging in?

Looks like an open tag somewhere along the line.

I'd check the logout template or look at the source code of the page to see if you can find a tag that hasn't been closed..

I made that page again, and there was no problem... I guess it was my messing up with sourcecode of that page. Thanks.
