Sorry, I installed the cms part and created a widget to go on the forum home page. I added it to the left of my three home page columns. All of the widgets that should be in the right side column are all displayed on the left :D

I deleted the widget but I could add it back in for a little while tomorrow if you wanted to see the problem.

If you PM me when you've set the widget up again I'll have a look and have a better understanding. Or take a screenshot if that is easier.

Did you upload the contents of the sidebar_countdown1.0.2.zip too? (those files are required)

I actually did upload those but wasn't sure if I needed to.
All the files are in a folder called countdown.

I will try a screenshot for you.
Thanks.

For the CMS widget? Replace the countdown_cms.css contents with this, should fit nicely into a 240px block. (though the font is a little small for my own liking)

You can play about with the css file (possibly change the font-family and some of the padding to suit)

Code:

#countdown {

         height: 42px;

         padding: 2px 0 2px 0;

}



.dash {

         width: 19px;

         height:38px;

         float: left;

         margin-left: 12px;

         padding-left: 12px;

         border-left: 1px solid;

         position: relative;

}

    

.first {

        margin-left: 18px;

        padding-left: 0;

        border-left: 0;

}



.dash .digit {

        font-size: 1.3em;

        font-weight: bold;

        float: left;

        font-family: Arial, sans-serif;

        color: #5C7099;

        position: relative;

}



.dash_title {

        position: absolute;

        display: block;

        bottom: 0px;

        right: 0px;

        font-family: Arial, sans-serif;

        font-size: 8px;

        color: #5C7099;

        text-transform: uppercase;

        letter-spacing: 0px;

}

Hi Gemma,
First up... Excellent mod, Works great!

I did search and read most posts and didn't see this mentioned, so I appologize if it's already been asked and answered.

Is there a way of dropping the "WEEKS" altogether and changing the display to
DAYS | HRS | MINS | SECS

i.e. instead of 4 weeks, 6 days, 3 Hrs, 45 Mins, 10 Secs
it would display as... 34 Days, 3 Hrs, 45 Mins, 10 Secs

Doing it this way would allow for a narrower column without losing any real detail.

Try this,

In the template replace the <script> part with something like this (ie add the omitWeeks part)

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">

jQuery(document).ready(function() {

    $('#countdown').countDown({

        targetDate: {

            'day':      00,

            'month':   00,

            'year':     2011,

            'hour':     00,

            'min':      00,

            'sec':      00

},

        omitWeeks: true

                 });

});

</script>

Then replace this part of the template:

Code:

<div class="dash first weeks_dash">

                <span class="dash_title">Weeks</span>

                <div class="digit">0</div>

                <div class="digit">0</div>

            </div>

            <div class="dash days_dash">

                <span class="dash_title">Days</span>

                <div class="digit">0</div>

                <div class="digit">0</div>

            </div>

With:

Code:

<div class="dash first days_dash">

                <span class="dash_title">Days</span>

                <div class="digit">0</div>

                <div class="digit">0</div>

            </div>

And save.

You might need to then play about with the css file to fix .first as it probably won't be aligned properly, this will differ depending on the block width you are using but try changing the margin-left value.

Code:

.first {

    border-left: 0 none;

    margin-left: 17px;

    padding-left: 0;

Hope that makes sense :confused::erm:

Thanks Gemma,

That works perfectly! :D

Attachment 133883

That's with a 230 sideblock, which will work on my CMS as well and I can still get it smaller with some minor font & dash changes. :up:

Looks good. The only thing I don't like about your screenshot is the fact that Battlefield 3 is released in Australia before the UK :p
