I am using detail page "News" for news summary and detail view where sidebar is turned off.
If you dont want to use detailpage but still want sidebar disabled when viewing detail post see this: http://www.i-do-this.com/blog/39/Change ... -on-Module

This is QuattroSimple theme topic and not "Edited NcleanBlue with Slider" topic (i never used standard themes and never tested these in IE).
It's CSS problem, and with saying IE you should also be more specific as IE is more than one version.
Check z-index properties in your CSS and look at QuattroSimple theme stylesheet, Dropdown works in IE.
You can also fix it with jQuery search google for "jquery z-index IE7" or something.

I`m a little bit customized QuattroSimple template and now i have a problem with menu. When i hovering on the link of menu, it displays only a left item of menu. Navigation section (/* NAVIGATION */) in CSS by default, theme (theme : pageNavigation) in MenuManager by default. Red arrow shows that the right element slipped down. I tried to do it on a clean template, is the same. I cant understand whats wrong..? ???

You have probably mixed up second level styles for a and span with current/hover style of first level.
Take original menu css and change only colors for second level, then go step by step ;) i had background-image: none; for second level.

I installed QuattroSimple again, but the problem with menu is still. Before i deleted all default themes. Maybe QuattroSimple have any dependencies with these styles? Or with some modules / plugins (except the slider-teaser, and news)?

No dependencies there, never used defaults :-)
Without seeing your actual problem, can't give much help.

If you want to remove navigation from sidebar search for:

Code: Select all

{* show submenu of current page if there is one *}
         {menu template="sidebarNavigation" childrenof=$page_alias}
and remove it.

In the core stylesheet, there is reset part, now you should either remove vertical-align:baseline; or do some styling in default stylesheet for tables.

For a structure like this or a website like yours i would rather have a look at products or cataloger modules, build templates for these and have same structure for each product/service without having to build tables every time in the wysiwyg area.

I had expressed interest of using the news slider effects of Quattro on BigBuzz. Unfortunately I can't find the post thats why im posting it here. but you had told me to study the Functions Scripts. I found the area controlling the news and replaced it with

Code: Select all

// Split articles
$.fn.splitUp=function(splitBy,wrapper){
    $all= $(this).find('>*');
    var fragment=Math.ceil($all.length/splitBy);
    for (i=0;i<fragment;i++)
        $all.slice(splitBy*i,splitBy*(i+1)).wrapAll(wrapper);
    return $(this);
}

$('.sidebar-news')
    .splitUp(7,'<div/>') // you can change the number 3 to any number of news you want to scroll
    .cycle({ 
    fx:     'scrollUp', 
    speed:   600, 
    timeout: 12000
    });                            
}); 
  
from Quattro Functions.js

But Nothing happens the news are not even animating aeromarine.co.ke

You should also look at the markup/template of that news template, it is not animating as js targets for class .sidebar-news but i dont see any in your source code.

You should also look at number of jquery plugins you use, wow thats allot and you use jquery twice, remove the one from bottom.
<__script__ type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jq ... "></__script>

Sorry about that I normally work on localhost before i put my work online. I have done as you asked.

removed <__script__ type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jq ... "></__script>

Created a default newsSummary template

Code: Select all

<ul class="sidebar-news">{foreach from=$items item=entry}
<li><a href="{$entry->moreurl}" title="{$entry->title|cms_escape:htmlall}">{$entry->title|cms_escape}<br /><span>Posted {if $entry->postdate}on {$entry->postdate|cms_date_format}{/if}</span></a>
</li>
{/foreach}
</ul>
but if I put the code in the functions.js still the news dnt animate and the pictures stop sliding.

Hello,

I have almost finished working on the elements for my new home page,

I want to remove the "Home" page title that is displayed in the main content area.
I have titled my home page, "Home" which is want I want, but not displayed in the content area.

I have tried to do it but I think if I do it will remove the title display of all pages and I dont want that.

I only want this done on the home page?

Can I do this?

Regards
Ryan

Where you have {title} (in template) or was it {$pagetitle} in quattro (dunno) simply do

Code: Select all

{if $page_alias == 'home'}
{else}
  <h1>{title}</h1> {* or {$pagetitle} whatever is there in template *}
{/if}
