Dropdown Cart not working 11 years 5 months ago #1221

Catherine Carrette

The drop down cart module is adding products, but not loading on top of the page (Can't see dropdown part.) When it is clicked on, nothing happens also.
Here is the site if you want to look.
carrettenewsite.cloudaccess.net/shop-menu-2.html

I am a beginner, so please keep it simple. I may be able to edit css if you point me exactly where to go.

I'm using Joomla 2.5, Cloudbase 2.0 template
Virtuemart V 2.0.12f
Puremart V 3.1

Thank you

The shopping cart module is working, but you can't see the dropped down box; becasue your joomla template has

overflow: hidden;

parameter for the module boxes.
Open this CSS file:
carrettenewsite.cloudaccess.net/templates/puremartshop/css/template.css

and find this CSS rule:

.rt-block{
	padding: 0px;
	margin: 10px 0px;
	overflow: hidden;
	word-wrap: break-word;
}

change it with this:

.rt-block{
	padding: 0px;
	margin: 10px 0px;
 
	word-wrap: break-word;
}

The result will be:

You might consider to reduce the width side of our Cart module. Because it is now larger than your module box. It is also easy.
Open this CSS file:
carrettenewsite.cloudaccess.net/templates/puremartshop/html/com_virtuemart/assets/css/flexibleVM2Global.css

Find this CSS rule:

#vmCartModule.vmCartModule {
	background:url(../images/Flexible/vmCartBack.png) right top no-repeat;
	height:28px;
	display:block;
	line-height:28px;
	cursor:pointer;
	font-size:10px;
	padding-left:11px;
	width:220px;
}

and change it with this:

#vmCartModule.vmCartModule {
	background:url(../images/Flexible/vmCartBack.png) right top no-repeat;
	height:28px;
	display:block;
	line-height:28px;
	cursor:pointer;
	font-size:10px;
	padding-left:11px;
	width:180px;
}

The result will be:

It still looks like doesn't fit in the module box, you can also do this little trick:
Open the Virtuemart Language INI file, and change the CART TOTAL text to just CART, then it should be all okay.

Cheers.
