random album layout issues 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 1
I am trying to get a horizontal 5 album layout in the Random and Featured albums module (Charts) module.

Instead of showing horizontally they are showing vertically one on top of the other. These are the pertaining settings I have.

Load JQuery library: No
Use carousel: No
How many albums to show at a time: 5
Number of RANDOM albums: 5
Orientation: Horizontal


What is odd is if I use the JQuery/Carousel settings to YES it shows up horizontal. With them turned off it shows up vertical even though horizontal is the orientation checked on both. Unfortunately because of some compatibility issues with the JQuery library with some of my other modules I need to get this layout working without using JQuery/Carousel mode.

Any ideas? Thank you.

uops!

yes... the "automatic css" was for jcarousel on.
if its off, then you'll have to go with manual styling...

I'll try to automatize this as well...

Any luck on this? Or any tips on what I should look for in the css code to manually make the changes? Thanks again!

Still totally loss on this one. Appears with the carousel turned off it no longer uses the tango skin css. From what I can tell it looks like it might be using the random_album.css Unfortunately I am not seeing anything obvious to change in that css to make it go from the default vertical view it shows up as with the carousel turned off to the horizontal look that I want. Going through all the topics here on the forums isn't helping at all either because they all seem to address issues with the tango skin css which isn't matching up anything in the random_album.css and doesn't seem to change anything no matter what changes I make in it.

Please advise.

I need this to show up horizontal. screenshot:

Sorry, I know you have been busy. Thought I would just bump this up so that this issue doesn't get lost in all the traffic.

sorry

yes, it does not load the skin.css if jcarousel is off.

to make this show horizontaly you only need css styling. my suggestion is that you give the module a sufix class, and then, on your template css file, you give the LI elements (the albums) of that module some "float:left;" properties that make them show horizontal. do you know what I mean?

do you know css?
