Hello,
I am trying out Rok Box for the first time, and I am using it on the template Perihelion. But I cannot seem to get it to work. I have installed and enabled both the rokbox system and content plugins. I have experimented with a number of different settings to see if maybe that would do the job, but to no avail.

As you can see on my page I have 3 pieces of artwork under highlighted work. I want people to be able to click on these images and have larger ones pop up. But the images that I want to pop up are not going to be the same as the smaller images that are on the screen.
I don't completely understand how the whole thumb thing works. Is the thumb the image that is resting on the screen before it is clicked on? Also so I know how to do it, I already had images set up in those positions, if I am correct in my definition of the thumb I will then use those pre-sized images in the thumb position. I just wanted you to double check my logic, but that is what I have done in the code below.
This is the code that I have right now:{rokbox title=|Depth :: This painting represents the pain of my love for my niece who was so far from me, my first experience with the magnificent beauty of a child! | Image size=|800 600| thumb=|images/stories/depth.jpg|}images/slideshow/2depth.png{/rokbox}
Let me know if I am making an error in the code, or in my settings.
thanks!!! :shock: :cheesy: - Jaclyn H.

Hello,
You have 2 choices to make RokBox works in module position:
1. Use standalone syntax like:<a rel="rokbox[900 600](demo)" title="Example :: RocketWerx Official Home Page" href="http://www.rocketwerx.com">RocketWerx</a>
or
2. Use this module

OK so I have installed the module, thanks for that it was a big help. I tried using the standalone syntax, but I could not get it to work.
Anyway, I am having one minor problem, the images seem to be falling off of the edge of the background screen. I have tried increasing the size in the parameters to offest it, but it does not matter what I list it still forms to the image, with the right hand side too long for the box.
I have been sifting through the CSS, but I cannot find what controls that, can you double check it for me?
thank you for all of your help!!! I really appreciate it.

OK I was able to widen the space in the legacy settings by changing content padding to 20, except when I did that it left a translucent gap in the position that I widened it in. I have found the CSS that associated with this gap as seen below:
element.style {
height:440px;
width:765px;
}
I just cannot figure out where it is being referenced from?
I need the width changed to 765, I think it was something like 750 before.
Let me know if you can locate that CSS file.
thanks!!!!

Hello,
How about this?
Open your template_css.css at:
<Joomla Root>/templates/<your template name>/css/template_css.css
At the bottom of the lines, add below codes:#rokbox-wrapper {width: 817px !important;}
