News Module Problem

Post by atomickarma »

hi

I'm having some problem with the News module, and the successful display of news items.

Basically, you can see here: http://www.thegadgetmonkey.co.uk/index.php/phones

For some reason the news items are displaying on top of themselves, and I can't work out why.

I'm using this statement in the page template:

Code: Select all

news category="mobile" detailpage="phonereview" detailtemplate="gmnews_detail.tpl" summarytemplate="gmnews_summary.tpl" number="6"
Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance
Christian

It's all in your CSS, you have way toooo many position:positive tags in your calls, if you use them they need top:10px left:20px (where ever you need to put them) and you have to give something position:relative...

The problem comes from it, p:a, making what ever you give it to show up on top of other objects, so one object after the other starts piling up...

You might want to go back to the original CSS for the News and start over it will make each news article have space above and below, then have the div it's in do the moving out of the way of other divs...
