There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

[SOLVED] Problem with positioning page menu items

Hi all,

I am working in a site with slightly altered page menu and I am using Juggledads colored menu sheat sheet as a help.
I want the page menu horizontal just below a music score. And the first menu item had to be shifted a little bit to the right. The idea is that the first menu text comes below the first notes.
The site is: http://www.kerkkooramdg.nl/
I managed shifting the menu to the right by making the following css inserts:

/* ----- Aanpassingen aan menu 1 (page menu) (using Jd menu cheat sheet)----- */
/* ----- The category part is left out; we are not (yet) using categories ----- */

/* ================================================ */
/* Page menu background */
/* ================================================ */
div#menu1 {
height: 20px; /* left out Category part; otherwise use 40px */
margin-top:0px;
background: blue;
padding-left:40px;
background: #F2E1E2;
}
/* ================================================ */
/* Page Menu item's background and border */
/* ================================================ */
div#menu1 ul.rMenu {
background: #F2E1E2;
border: none 0px;
}
/* ================================================ */
/* Page Menu item */
/* ================================================ */
ul.rMenu li a:link,
ul.rMenu li a:visited,
ul.rMenu li a:hover,
ul.rMenu li a:active,
ul.rMenu li {
background: #F2E1E2;
width:168px;
text-align:center;
}
/* ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ */

But now the menu items have some overlap which i am not able to get solved.
The whole menu is not reacting as it should.

Hope anyone can give me a direction..

Btw, a great theme, so many options...

Bert

Instead of using CSS to position the menu did you try using %page-center?

Hi lmilesw,
Thank you for the reaction.
I tried that right now, but then the menu items becomes smaller and cropped in the middle.
I would like to see a menu bar as wide as the music bar, but where the first menu-item starts about 50px left from the edge.
Hope i make my myself clear?
Maybe i should combine the two options? The %page-center with css options?

I think can make the music bar higher with more white at the bottom side, and then project the menu on top of the bottom part of the music-bar.
But that leaves me with the menu items close to each other in the middle; I would like to see them spread under the music staff.

Problem is when i put the width:148px; in the css by the page menu item "ul.rMenu li{}"
Then things are becomming weird.

Found this post from Juggledad: http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=18643
gave it a try but it did not make the menu full width...

in CSS inserts:
HTML Code:
#bfa_page_menu {border: solid 1px #F2E1E2; background-color: #F2E1E2;}
div#menu1 {border: solid 1px #F2E1E2; background-color: #F2E1E2;}
#bfa_page_menu div#menu1 {border: none;}
