Lightbox display half works

Hi,

I've today subscribed and installed the Calendar Planner component, and so far it's a great product and is doing what I need it to do.

However, I have hit a problem.....in the frontend, when I click the new event button, the screen darkens as if the lightbox is loading, but it just stays like that and doesn't show any form or anything.....this is also happening when I click on an event that has been added from the Admin panel.

Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Julian

    Hello Julian,

    can you send a link to the website?

    this issue you're describing is usually related to a small CSS "overriding" thing, where your template's CSS overrides the modal window properties and that's why it doesn't display (I've seen it before, one time, a few months ago)

    ok it's definitely something to do with that. I can see there's some plugin or module called "simplemodal" that seems to be the possible cause. do you know which is it? can you disable it so we can be sure that this is it?

    Hiya, I've looked through the plugin manager, module manage and extension manager and I can't find anything related to simplemodal.

    Any other suggestions??

    Hi,

    Just thought I would update you......

    I've managed to find a Jqueryt file that referred to the SimpleModal....I've renamed that and not the add new event box is display, however the box is too big for the screen and I cannot see a submit or add button now to be able to add an event.

    Please could you take a further look for me?

    Many thanks

    Julian

    Further update......once I renamed the jquery this then stopped my login box from appearing.....renaming it back fixes the login issue, but then the Calendar doesn't work again.

    ok.. this starts to make sense then.

    the size of the box is no problem (we can fix that with CSS), but what is clear is that the login modal box is what is conflicting with the calendar.
    is this login box a standard thing from your template?

    Hiya,

    The login is not the standard login that comes with Joomla, however it was supplied with the template that I'm using.

    I'll have a look at whether I can find a different login to work with the template

    Hi,

    I've sourced a different login module and now the modal popup is all working correctly.

    However, I would be grateful if you could assist with the problem of not being able to scroll the screen down to see the Submit button when adding a new event via the front end.

    Thanks

    Hi, The calendar is in use, and now only visible to logged in users.

    If the page is viewed on a laptop or tablet, then the submit button is not visible on the screen and there is no way to be able to scroll the screen down.

    Do you need access to view the calendar? if so, where should I send the login details?

    Thanks
