Module border problem!

[Joan]

Hi guys. Adding a simple module border in appearances gives us a nasty border around the navigation byline ".navigation_byline" Nothing I've tried gets rid of this! Can anyone help? Cheers

Ho Joan,

It sounds like there is no proper border size mentioned in the code. 

Please try something like this in you advanced css box..

.module {
border: solid 2px red;
}

Hi Bernard

Going into design studio - customize - modules - module border gives us a border around all the outer edge of all modules  but then gives us the problem I'd posted. Also then any content in some modules i.e photo, events, then spills out to the right (is no longer contained in the module) Here's the bit that I found in css to show you....

.xg_theme .xg_module, .xg_theme .xg_headline, .xg_theme .navigation {
    background: none no-repeat scroll 0 0 #D2F3FA;
    border-color: #FF00FF;
    border-style: solid;
    border-width: 3px;
    margin-right: 2px;
    margin-left: 2px;
}

Also I put the margin in here to put some space between the forum discussion search module and the outer edge border - otherwise the left and right borders of the search module butt up against the outer border - the problem is it adds a margin at the edge of all the other modules also!

Thanks for your help so far!

maybe remove , xg_navigation write separate code for it... ?

Thanks for the reply Woody. I think I did try this...just removing the .xg_navigation took out our site background image! I can't believe we're the only NC to have come across this problem since all we did was add a module border! It's really frustrating ...aaarrrggghhh!

Hi Woody

I sorted this out by using .byline in CSS and setting border value to none like this...

.xg_widget_forum .byline {
border: none!important; }

I used this method for each of the pages (videos, photos, etc) that had the border on it. Figured out some other bits n bobs but it took a while.

Major stress averted!

Can you show me your site link ? It looks like messing things up.

[Joan]

Hi Bernard I've just made the site paid access. I'm going to send a support ticket as well I think. I could maybe send a screen shot?

[Bernard Lama]

Please show me that...

Seems to work OK so far!

So if anyone had the same problem I hope this helps!
