Hello,

I am using JReviews' iReview2 template which provides a CSS drop-down menu (no JS so no problem with FB Login button - I have already tried image and text link options). I have placed both and SCLogin and Joomla Login module in the the "Entrar" menu on this test site:
miraargentina.com/test

Originally the links to registration and forgot password were not showing for either module. JReviews says this:

It's a conflict with menu styles, every <ul> tag inside the menus has a "display: none" to allow a simple solution for unlimited levels of menu items.

and they provided this code which works for the core Login module:
.mod-login ul.login-links {
margin: 10px 0 0 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
display: block;
position: relative;
}
That works fine, as you can see on the test site, for the core Login module. But SCLogin register and password links are still not showing. I have seen many times in this forum that SCLogin uses the same classes as the core Login module, so why is the extra CSS code from JReviews only working for the core Login module? And why are the gaps between rows so big in SCLogin as compared to core login module?

Thanks!

With the v2.x version of the SCLogin module, we did use most of the styling names from Joomla 2.5. However, there are probably some fields that we may have missed.

The new SCLogin module, v3.0, that's currently a separate download, mostly uses the Joomla 3.0 style names. That's because it's based on Bootstrap. However, with that module, we intentionally have used some of our own classes and IDs to prevent conflicts with our styles and templates. That way, the module should always look the same and template's won't mess it up too much, which has been a big problem in the past.

With that said, can you let me know what version of the SCLogin module you're using. Also, is there a page you can post, or Private Message, so that we can see the problem in action. Once we can see the page, it's usually easy to see what style is causing issues.

Thanks,
Alex

I had tried using the Update Manager for the new SCLogin Module but it wasn't working. Since it said "beta" I didn't think much other than "better wait". Just now I downloaded the module from your site (like the new look BTW) and installed it. It eliminated all issues. I really like the new layout.

I had posted a link in my first post but not a hyperlink. I don't like a bunch of linkbacks to my site from dev forums. So since it was plain text you probably missed it.

Now that I can show you the new module working on the live site, in the "Miembros" menu, here it is nice and big:

miraargentina.com

Another one is in the footer. It doesn't look so hot but I will be removing it anyway. At least now that you have your own style classes I know this stuff will never pop up again.

Thanks.

Yeah, we had really positive feedback from the initial beta release and no big issues, so we added as an auto-update option. The 'final' release will be out by the end of the month with more features and a few bug fixes, but there was nothing critical.

Sorry I missed your link before. I agree with not putting links everywhere, but I do scan for those bright orange links in posts to quickly view a user's page.. that was my fault.

Definitely looking good. If you have any questions or suggestions for improvements, just let us know.

Thanks,
Alex
