JoomlaJunkie - Joomla Template Provider Bringing color to the Joomla community

My Ario Lite installation works perfectly... most of the time. I an using the Fabrik component for a custom application. The component work like it should. Only problem is that any page that displays anything from Fabrik, a table, a form, anything, the logo at the top of the page is missing and instead a text version is displayed in the center of the header. Also, if I add another menu item to the main menu then the whole header gets messed up, image, menu, everything.

Proper header: http://www.vintnerresources.com

messed up logo: http://www.vintnerresources.com/index.php/component/option,com_fabrik/Itemid,65/

Please help!!!

Thanks, Carl.

Hi Carl,
If the templates works perfectly up until you access fabrik, doesnt that say that the problem is not with the template, but rather the component? I'm assuming that this does not happen with any other components? If thats the case, i think its pretty clear that the culprit in this case is the component and not the template

I had a look at the code and can see what the problem is. If you look at the two images (the first is the non fabrik pages and the latter is the pages that fabrik is loaded:

On normal pages the top logo is being loaded properly (H1):



Then when fabrik is loaded, you will now notice the logo has changed to an H2:



All i can assume is that the component is somehow rewriting H1's on the page, so to get around this, change the reference in your index.php from


to:


You will then also need to update your css, just look for the reference that styles the H1 a{

Cheers,
Chris

Thanks for the assistance. I knew the template was not broken per say and that the issue was with the interaction of the template and Fabrik... I just had no idea where to start with trouble shooting and figured you would be better able to see what was getting messed up than the Fabrik guys. Looks like I was right!!!

One last request though... your suggestions above are missing the actual information. Any chance you could repost the from and to parts.

Thanks, Carl.

Hi Carl,
I missed that the forum had stripped out the code, so my apologies for that The suggestion was just to change the logo from a H1 to a div (and class of .logo). Then once you adjust your css it should no longer conflict with the component.

Any chance you could be a little more specific? Modifying Joomla templates and CSS is not one of my strengths... in fact I am pretty clueless.

Hi Carl,
If you send a temp super admin account to chris {at} webmonkeys.co.za, i'll take a look for you
