Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA - Page Menu drop down modification

Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA (http://forum.bytesforall.com/index.php)

- Page & Category Menu Bars (http://forum.bytesforall.com/forumdisplay.php?f=10)

- - Page Menu drop down modification - remove arrows & extra space (http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=516)

I searched high and low for a solution to set the margin and padding of the dropdown menu sub items and found it here. Great! Thanks!

This did it for me:

HTML Code:

div#menu1 ul.rMenu-ver li {

margin: 0px;

padding: 3px;

}

These issues are SOLVED

I'm having trouble with this. Site: http://www.artcurvedstraight.org/home

- My images have all been replaced with 1x1.
- I have tried the above in post #26.

But, Firebug is still telling me that my right-padding is 15. This really throws off the appearance of the menus. I've learned a lot about styling menus in Atahualpa over the last few days, but this is the final hurrah for me.

Questions:

1. SOLVED: How can I reduce the right padding on ALL of my li items in the menus, both horizontal and vertical?

/*---drop down arrows-----------------------------------*/
div#menu1 ul.rMenu-hor li.rMenu-expand a {
background-image: none;
padding-right: 3px !important;
}
div#menu2 ul.rMenu-hor li.rMenu-expand a {
background-image: none;
padding-right: 3px !important;
}

2. (please please ;) ) How can I reduce the sub-menu width of 7 to less than 7? You will see on my site the width throws off the design, as I have observed on other Atahualpa sites as well. The edges just stick out too far.

2a. SOLVED: Alternately, could I style ALL of the parent items to match that width of 7, so the red outlines lined up, and all menu items were a standard width?

ul.rMenu li {width: 11em;}

Any advice please? Flynn/Juggledad or any other users?

Thanks so much!

Not quite. I still would really like to be able to do this:

but I think the answer will be I can't? is it possible through a php hack? I'm enjoying getting through this stuff, and posting my answers as I go.

thanks!

Hello,

I am sorry if this was explained earlier but my coding is not up to par...I am trying to move my subpage icon. As I click on the parent page my submenu appears just fine but the subpage is down and to the right and it is 1 out of 10 that I can access that submenu....quite frustrating...So can I move the submenu to be able to click on it more easily?

What version of Atahualpa? What version of WP?
What is your URL?
are you using a custom WordPress or Atahualpa menu?
Is this the page or cat menu?
what do you have in the 'Configure Header area' option?

Perhaps on the next version, removing the arrows entirely could be an option, since none of my customers have ever wanted them.

I was hoping against hope that

.page_item page-item-11{
width:125px;
}

would standardize them all, but no such luck.:(
