SCLogin questions

Rodster,
Glad you like the intent.. though, yeah, it looks pretty terrible on your site

The problem for you is that there's a conflict between your template and our styles. Here's some quick fixes that will prevent your styles from overriding ours. If you implement these, you'll be 99% of the way there, and we can help with any other tweaks.
1) Edit the /modules/mod_sclogin/tmpl/joomlaLogin_horizontal.php file
2) Search for id="form-login-username" and replace with id="form-login-username123"
3) Search for id="form-login-password" and replace with id="form-login-password123"
4) Disable the System - Remember Me plugin (for now).

#2 & #3 are simply changing the ID name so your template can't find that code. #4 removes the checkbox. If you want it, we can help you get it back, but lets get things looking better first.

Let me know when those are done and if it's a good improvement or not and we'll go from there.

Thanks,
Alex

Rodster,
The fix for the alignment of the buttons is to edit the /modules/mod_sclogin/css/sc_bootstrap.css file. At line 473, you'll see a block for:Update the line there for:toThat will add the '0px' of margin statement to the top of those buttons too, which will override some other margin-top that's being set elsewhere.

With that, the buttons should all be aligned. Then, if you want the Facebook button position differently, play with the Orientation and Alignment options in the "Social Button Settings" area of the module.

Keep us posted on how that goes. We'll be trying to integrate some of these fixes into the next (hopefully 'stable') release of the SCLogin module.

Thanks,
Alex

Honestly not sure what's pulling that to the top like that. It's not supposed to re-center the user and none of our development sites do so and a few sites that we know are already using the new SCLogin module.

I think this is another example of your template overriding some of our settings, but I'm not sure. The only other difference I see is that your site is including JQuery v1.8 whereas we developed the SCLogin module with v1.9. You may want to try enabling the JQuery inclusion in SCLogin to see if that changes the behavior.

Keep us posted on how that goes, but it's looking good. I hope you're happy with it, and we look forward to your other questions.

Thanks,
Alex

Rodster,
I'm not sure what's causing it then. I'd have to recommend a bit more testing, like:
* Switching to a default Joomla template and see if the shift to the top goes away.
* Trying on different types of component pages with your current template to eliminate if it's something a component may be doing
* Trying it on a 'bare' page with no/few other modules, again, eliminating those as a possible cause.

I can't tell what's pushing things around. My guess is it's some Javascript on the page, but I can't tell what.

Keep us posted on what you find, and we'll keep helping how we can.

Thanks,
Alex
