Hi

I noticed that since adopting the Sigma series templates, in the horizontal listings, on the homepage (homt.tpl) all the images are resized to fit (squashes it into a square). As most people take images that are rectangle by default, it is possible to redefine this so that it doesn't automatically resize to a square?

From memory the default template displayed it this way, which looked a little messy, but the images looked a lot better as they were not distorted.

Any suggestions? I have played around with the horizontal plugin with little success.

Cheers

This information is already on the forum. You can adjust these parameters in the custom plugins module - the function.css_listings_horizontal.php file and then you can modify other parameters in the css style sheet for this module too providing more space for text etc.

Ok

I looked through the forum. I have another look.

You don't need to - I just told you which files you need to modify.

In my plugins folder, i don't have the file function.css_listings_horizontal.php.

The only css. file I have is function.css_featured.php, I also have function.feature_listings_horizontal.php. I have looked through both of these, testing, making changes to the code for widths and heights, but I can't seem to make a change that will affect the featured horizontal listing.

Cheers

Try the modules folder. Why are you not simply able to search your local copy to see what files are in it? All file managers on a computer will allow you to do that. If you do not have a local copy then you are asking for trouble if anything goes wrong on your server.

Thanks for the info. Found the file. All sorted.

Yeah, I definately do all my work on a local copy.

Cheers
