zentools 2 - layout filter - recreating demo buildr base 4

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hi,

I'm looking to set up zentools2 module, with buildr template, base4.
layout --> filter
content source --> joomla

I'd like to have it the way you show it in the demo (see screenshot)

I need some hints to set up it… because right now, it is really messy. (as you can see)
I went through the module demo (admin mode) but couldn't find what I miss. :unsure:

Did they directly write CSS ?

Thank you

Do you have css enabled in the module?

It is under the Theme tab and CSS Handling

--> CSS Handling on my website : Master. (custom or disabled doesn't change anything)

-->> In the demo JB : Custom
I wanted to use the customed CSS of the demo… but I've no idea where the file is suppose to be (in the folder module ? )

Thank you :)
I appreciate your help ! ( I don't feel to be anymore on my own :laugh: )

Ok I found some differences : There is a media folder in the module folder of buildr base4 demo. (and a languages also) There is not such a file in my website.
Website > module folder

This works a little a different than above.

Zentools2 has a master css file which by default would apply to all instances of the zentools2 modules e.g. you have a slideshow and a filtered grid and the master would apply by default to both unless you select custom

If you select custom css in the theme tab it makes this module's styling options unique to this module instance

This is so changes made in styling the module in the theme tab don't affect other modules

Well… I agree.
So, I'd like too, use a custom CSS,on the filtered grid, by selecting custom, also.
Just, because JB has done great job already ;) , I want to use the same custom CSS.
Is that something possible ?

NB : As you might have read, I'm not native english speaking, and I might not be clear… sometimes, or I might misunderstand. just tell me, no offence.

No problem I'm English and people don't understand me all the time

Can you attach a screenshot of your drag and drop section of the module

Thanks

Hi,

I think I got differences !
Doesn't look exactly the same, however, looks really better.

Only one margin missing in between navbar and articles boxes.

Looking good - maybe change the title to h3 or h4 and see if the font size is a little smaller
