Hi,

I have been trying to get Stalker to be displayed horizontal with "Display Type: List". Dont know if its me, im a noob, or if it isnt possible. Anyway my last resort was to modify the Stalker default.php to this:

<div class="stalkerLink">
    <a href="/<?php echo $url ?>" rel="nofollow" title="<?php echo $title ?>" target="<?php echo $target ?>"><?php echo $row->socnet ?></a><br />
</div>

and in this way make it possible to float the class .stalkerLink to the left.

Is there another way?

If not, I would like to suggest that U add the extra class around <a> or if possible to make it a real <li>.

Kindest regards

Kent

Hi Kent,

If you use display type of list, then yes, they'll just run down the page.  Leaving display type as icons/images will let them run horizontally, however, you don't see the names that way.

I'll have a look at improving the list layout in the next version. To be honest, I threw LIST & TEXT in there just for fun, I never really expected anyone to use them :^)

Thanks
Nick

:) well I use it. I like the layout with both icon and text. I use it on my upcomming personal page and will adapt my template release to override the default.php but it would be nice if I didnt need to :) Here is a screenshoot of how it could look like.

I guess the easiest way, for now, would be to edit the Stalker Template file /modules/modstalker/tmpl/default.php file to remove the <br /> from the end of the lines that display the text links.  Then you can edit the CSS file /modules/modstalker/assets/css/stalker.css to set up the link text (#modstalker a {}) however you want.

I'll see what I can do to offer some better formating styles.

I too am having some difficulty with the horizontal display of the icons in Stalker v.1.1.1  Any tips? Does the CSS have to be adjusted for each install?

I tried setting a display:inline on the img but no dice! I also cleared the cache within J! and stripped out the </br> from the default.php.

What am I missing my friend? BTW I'm certain I've used a previous version of this module on another site without the same issue. Should I roll back to a previous version?

Thanks for giving this your attention.

Hi sandman,

Are you trying to display the icons horizontally, or have you chosen list view like the original poster?  If it's just the icons, then there shouldn't be a problem (you'll see the module at the top of my page happily aligns them horizontally without any CSS changes).  It may be the template CSS as opposed to Stalker?

Let me know the URL where I can see it in action and I'll see if I can see what's going on.

Hey guys,

I've spent the day working on improving the positioning within the module.  Now you can specify left, center, right or horizontal as the position. The positioning is all handled using the CSS lists, so not a <br /> in site :^)

If you'd like to shoot over your email addresses (use the contact option in the website menu) I'll send over the update for you to try, and maybe get some feedback?

Thanks
N
