    DocMan Layout problems with rt_replicantV2

    Posted 15 years 11 months ago
    • Hey everybody,

      I'm using Joomla 1.5.10 in legacy mode + Template rt_replicantV2 from Rockettheme
      +Docman 1.4.0

      At first, Docman was showing at the bottom in frontend. It starts with headline "categories" after left module has finished from top to bottom. So in the content area, there is a big hole and docman starts somwhere down of the page.

      Tested on WinXP/Linux with Firefox and Google Chrome. It actually does work perfectly with IE7.

      removing this line
      .clr { clear: both;}
      from components/com_docman/themes/default/css/theme.css

      did not lead to any changes. Then I found out that the replicant css also defined the same line.
      What I did next was removing all the calls to .clr in docman files as suggested here:
      joomlacode.org/gf/project/docman/tracker...tracker_item_id=8716

      This solution helped but page 3 of uploading documents is still doing the same below the 4 tabs (document, access, license, details).

      I did not find any more clr in docmans template nor any other "clear:both" in rockettheme template that could cause this.

      Any help?

      Thanks a lot in advance!

      *edit: typos and tested with linux/FF3

    • Hello,

      Could you please provide your website link so we can see and check the problem?

      Without seeing your site, you may try this:


      Open your template index.php at:
      <Joomla Root>/templates/<your template name>/index.php

      Find below codes:
      <jdoc:include type="component" />

      Change the codes to:
      <table width="100%"><tr><td><jdoc:include type="component" /></td></tr></table>

    • Everytime I used docman I had to tweak it to fit in my RT-template.

      As most of the things are surounded by a div of class dm_docs you should be able to tweak everything via css.

      so to take the clear out you could build a css-rule (selector) like

      div#dm_docs div.clr { clear: none; }

      wich simply means:
      set for every div of class="clr"
      wich is in a div of id="dm_docs"
      the property "clear" to a value of "none" ...

      ... but a link would be nice! 8)
      I think there is another soultion ...

      Again., without looking, you may want to try DocMan's Blog Theme.

      main.mjaztools.com/downloads.html?task=cat_view&gid=20

      It integrates nicely with most templates....

      Thanks for this suggestion, unfortunately the layout problem persists, same as above.

      Sounds good! Thanks for your explanations, unfortunately this does not solve my problem.

      After all I would like to solve it clean and without adding a table. As a link won't help you (you need to be registered and logged in to use docman), I provide you a screenshot.
      This image is hidden for guests.
      Please log in or register to see it.
      If that's not enough I could send you the link and user-details via pm.

      Thanks a lot in advance!!! :)

    • Hello,

      Sorry... Maybe I only have that table solution at the moment..
      I know you might hate the table solution, but actually using table is not so bad sometimes.
      Although your template is clean from table stuff, the joomla itself still using table, for example in the blog and content layout... If me, I wouldn't care as long as it works and display well for all browser

      Anyway, yes, if someone has non-table solution for that problem, it will be great.
