    AT LAST…………………..
    If you guys and girls could be kind to comment on my site, it is taking one full year to get this site to where I want it to be. Thanks to all the help I received from the 68 team and templatecode great guys....
    The site is simple yet functional and easy on the eyes. I am now getting regular stream of listings if you can give it just a quick glimpse and tell me how it looks and feels. Will be great.

    Looks really good

    I was checking out your search page and it looks like you have some parent / child dropdowns that are not working as they should. You may want to re-check these.

    I like how you have separated out the main navigation from the accordian.

    When i looked at your gallery page, it has boxes in it. The issue I saw is that you allow people to put in titles into their adverts which are very long (more precisely the issue is some people put one little word or two and some people put a great long sentence). The boxes can't take the very long titles without cutting them so you can only see half the adverts title. Same problem with our horizontal listings. If you allow very long titles then you need to adjust the css to have tall boxes and it starts to look strange. Particularly when the titles are very short.

    Ok I see now...

    maybe less characters title will do the trick....

    it should but for your existing adverts I am not sure that will change now. What you may need is to find out how you can truncate nicely in that module which produces the gallery.
  12. Mike-N-Tosh Owner

    The Gallery module (shown only in browse or after search) does indeed render properly as well as "truncate" the listing titles. I believe that you are referring to the Featured listings view on the home page which is NOT controlled by the Gallery view module. This is the only place that I see this issue with the titles occurring.

    Correct. Same issue.

    However, I was seeing text being cut-off in safari on viewlistings. If it is truncating then some padding may be required as it looks like the text is being cut in half and the bottom border is missing. My point though is not about css but the length of titles which starts to look strange. Its only aesthetics.
  15. seymourjames All Hands On Deck

    To be clear as I look back, it appeared strange on the viewlisting pages which was using a gallery. I edited the home page css listings a while ago to take longer titles.

    However, who knows now because you seem to have changed the template altogether.
