View download files

Post by wopi »

Hi everyone,

i'm a new one with Phoca download and i need help. I use joomla 1.7 and Phoca download and I have a small problem. How can I put download files in the same Block on my website. When i have a look at the download page from my website I see that every dataset have a large download block and it looks not good. I would like to order the files in one ore more block.

Thank you

Which blocks do you mean? Do you have set up some categories and assign files to them?

I have only one categorie and all files assigned to them. When you in are front end and view the download files entries there is a lot of space from one filename until next. so you loose space and it looks very bad. i like to reduce the space between from one line to the next like this website http://www.reisefotografien.eu/phoca-be ... nleitungen. I like to design my download area like this but i can't find relevant options for that.

Hi,
http://www.reisefotografien.eu/phoca-be ... nleitungen This is not Phoca Download Component but Phoca Documentation Component.
Phoca Download Component looks like this: http://www.reisefotografien.eu/downloads

Kind regards,

Then you have to change the style of them. One way is to edit this file directly: /JOOMLAROOT/components/com_phocadownload/assets/phocadownload-grey.css. Another way is to edit your template css file or you can even create a new css file (which needs to be loaded by the template). I am not sure but I think there is also the possibility to edit the css files within the Joomla backend. When you want to test a little bit before editing any file I would recommend to use Firebug (an extension for Firefox, Chrome, etc.). After installing it you can right-click on an element, click on the menu entry called "Investigate Element" (or something similar! I do not know the english version!) and change temporarily the css properties on the right side.
