Columnar content templates not working as expected

I just created a site with 2.5.0.0 and tried to set up  some text using the 2 over 1 content template and it didn't work. I tried 3 over 1 and 4 over 1 and neither worked. I just set up a test page on the demo site and the same problem. The other templates for acordion and tab work OK it just seems to be the ones using columns. They just seem to line up one on top of another irrespective of screen size.

Re: Columnar content templates not working as expected

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for pointing this out. We haven't used those ourselves in a very, very long time so we kind of forgot about them. The next release will have a way to import and export content templates and these will not show up by default. Having hardcoded templates is kind of dirty anyway.

I'll put together some replacements you can use.

Thanks,
Joe

Re: Columnar content templates not working as expected

Hi Stephen,

You can see some new content templates that will work with bootstrap based skins here. You'll need to login to see those. The demo site login is admin@admin.com and the password is admin

The next release will include a way to import/export content templates. The old templates you're referring to are hardcoded and they require custom CSS to work. It's best if the content templates work based on what the skin can do rather than adding bloat to every skin to support old markup and css coding styles.

Thanks,
Joe

Thanks Joe. I've always found the old ones quite handy but time moves on I guess!

Re: Columnar content templates not working as expected

Hi Stephen,

You could add the following CSS to your skin to make the old templates work.

.floatpanel  {
    float: left;
    margin-right: 15px
}

.clear {
    clear: both;
}

Thanks,
Joe
