Template Doesn't Display Properly

Hey there - sent a few support emails - had one response but then no follow up in over a month.

I purchased this template back in Dec - still having display issues.

The template isn't properly recognizing the size of the teasers etc and the teasers and full displays overlap the bottom margin into the footer.

Is there an available update to fix this - it makes the theme virtually unusable aesthetically.

Could I please get an update on this?

Thanks

Yes, I can confirm that this request got completely lost in the shuffle before Christmas, and though I did find out what was causing the problem, I still need a solution. Here's what's happening: the teasers are resized by javascript, but their containing div is sizing itself to the height of the original teaser before it gets resized. It works when you're using the animated grid with multiple items, but single items that don't contain a lot of content get the overlap treatment.

I'll try my best to come with a solution for you by the end of the day, but if you're not using the vgrid at all it might be wise to just disable it anyway.

Just in case you do want to try it without the vgrid and see if it suits your purposes, here's a version of scripts-style1.js to try (overwrite the old one in neptune/js) with vgrid disabled.

Alright, I think I've actually fixed it. This is scripts-style1.js, I'll wait until you confirm it's fixed before I update the rest.

Edited to add: You may need to clear the cache if you've got optimization switched on.

Hey Rob - i thought i replied - i must have not hit enter.

I uploaded the changes - cleared cache - but unsure how to disable vgrid -where would i find that?

Hey -

There's no option for disabling it, the alternate version of style1-scripts.js that I posted first just omits the code. So if you want to not use vgrid, you would use that file, if you want to use vgrid, you'd use the last one that I posted. I wasn't actually sure that I'd be able to come up with a good solution, but the fix seems to work fair well so really it's your choice.

ahh ok - now i understand - i used the first one instead now and it seems to be working. If something looks funky anywhere still - i'll let you know.

Thanks for sorting this out!

Hey Rob - discovered one more display quirk.

The template does not display error messages from drupal - like errors in login etc

the filed will highlight red but no error message describing the issue.

Any thoughts?

I'll take a look. I have a feeling I know what the problem is. Have you changed page.tpl.php at all? It's probably going to need an overwrite. If you have I can just tell you what to edit (once I figure out precisely what that is).

I think it may have changes (had a guy working on it) so If you can show me what to change - i can easily go in and make the changes.

Thanks!!

Simple explanation, turns out I left it out. You need to add echo out messages in page.tpl.php, it can be added wherever you like, I placed it below the tabs on line 115 like so:

        <?php print render($tabs); ?>
        <?php print $messages; ?>
        <?php if (isset($node) == 0):?> <?php print render($title_prefix); ?>
