Hello, I am currently editing a theme called Neutrino 1.3 for Joomla version 2.5 There are a couple of things I would like if you could tell me:- See on this address, this is the Joomla 2.5 setup I have with Neutrino 1.3 theme. http://www.straightarrowhosting.net/~u0178969/ You see the menu at the top of this page? at the very top, its my main menu showing at top- it has home, about etc links on it. You can barely see it because its text doesnt stand up against the background colour. What I want to do is make that top menu bar have a filled background colour, see my current Joomla 1.5 site with JW CLEAN PRO edited theme at:- http://www.themariobros.net/ You see the menu bar at the top there how its got a dark blue background for the menu, and a darker blue for the link thats currently selected? I want to make my menu on J2.5 Neutrino look like that. Do you have any idea how I would go about this? I am very out of touch with coding and playing with CSS so feel free to spoon feed me ;-) Aside from that I have tried to change the font of all the menu headings and titles to SEGOE UI instead of the default (Which appears to be arial etc). I actually did find the font info in the style sheet, but when I change the font I must be doing something wrong - because its destroying a lot of the formatting - for example the tables that contain the menus dont have borders or colours around them anymore etc? The final thing I am trying to do is get the text "WELCOME TO THEMARIOBROS.NET" added in a H1/H2 style just above the featured item slideshow at about pt15 size of text. I can get it to appear where it used to say home, but thats UNDER the slideshow instead of above it :-( Please save me, many thanks Luke
For the top menu, I think it's better to change the link color to white since you have a dark color background. Also increase font size to 12px so that it look nicer. Here is how you do it. Open your css file and add this line: #top li a {font-size:12px;color:#FFF;} I don't see the welcome to ... anywhere.
The migration has taken place now, so you've probably noticed both sites look the same... The picture of the original site that I am trying to make it look like is here http://imgur.com/fUwTIDO Thanks lang_tu_ntt, I've added this line of text and it has indeed changed the font to white, however it has not adjusted the fonts size (must be some sort of option overriding this somewhere?). I think however if I edit my background image a little so the cloud isnt going under the white text that would solve that bit... I have now overrided the problem of menu not being seen at top by editing background image ;-)
