Splitting Banner 2 to two equal sized modules

Hi

I'd like to split the banner2 module into two equal sized modules. I figure i have to add a banner3 to the xml and then add the include to default.php in the blocks folder (at least i think it is) but its the code to make the modules equal sizes im unsure about, please see the image below.

Thanks

Hi

Try something like this:

Open templateDetails.xml file and add "banner3" module position.

Code: Select all

<position>banner3</position>

Next open ../gk_mystore_dark/layouts/default.php

and find this lines:

Code: Select all

$this->definePosition ($positions);
$this->loadBlock('definitions');

?>


replace it with:

Code: Select all

$this->definePosition ($positions);
$this->loadBlock('definitions');

?>

<?php

   $b2_width = 100;
   $b3_width = 100;

   if($this->countModules('banner2 and banner3')) {
      $b2_width = 50;
      $b3_width = 49;
   }

?>


On same page find this code:

Code: Select all

<?php if( $this->countModules('banner2') ): ?>

      <div id="banner2" class="head clearfix">

         <jdoc:include type="modules" name="banner2" style="none" />

      </div>

      <?php endif; ?>


and replace it with

Code: Select all

<?php if($this->countModules('banner2 + banner3')) : ?>
            <div id="gk-banner" class="head clearfix">
            <?php if($this->countModules('banner2')): ?>
               <div class="gk-banner2" style="width:<?php echo $b2_width; ?>%;">
                  <jdoc:include type="modules" name="banner2" style="none" />
            </div>
            <?php endif; ?>
   
            <?php if($this->countModules('banner3')): ?>
               <div class="gk-banner3" style="width:<?php echo $b3_width; ?>%;">
               <jdoc:include type="modules" name="banner3" style="none" />
               </div>
            <?php endif; ?>
            </div>
      <?php endif; ?>


Finally open template.css file and add this line:

Code: Select all

#gk-banner div {display: inline-block}

That should work fine

Cheers

Perfect, thanks very much!!
