Zenpage questions

Hi,

1- After creating some Albums, I noticed that the album titles are cut out.How to fix that? I'm using the zenpage default theme.

2- I've created a page and had a long post into it. I noticed that the text in the page extends to the area of the sidebar. How can I limit the text of my post to the content area? Also, I noticed that the side bar, although still in the correct side, but it is now below the posted page, causing alot of empty space. How can I keep it at the its original place of my web browser window after I make the post to the page? If the post was short, then I don't get this problem.

Thanks for any help,

Ataa

    A link or something would probably help to describe your problems.

    For no. 1, changing the h3 element of the album title in the index page of the theme to h5 solved the problem. Now I need to find a solution for the rest of the issues.

    As albeezie said, we will need more details like which browser you are using (I bet some older IE) and a link or at least a screenshot of the site. I did not encounter what you describe in any of my tests.

    I don't have a site available yet. I'm running zp on my local machine.
    I think I found why I was getting the second problem. For creating my page, I copied an artcle from a website and pasted it in the tiny mce editor directly. That resulted the page contents to cross to the sidebar. After I pasted the article in notepad first and then copying and pasting it in the tiny mce editor, no page contents extends to the sidebar and everything is good.

    Now I have another question, I created couple of albums and made sure the CombiNews feature checked. To insert an image in a zenpage page do I need to upload the images to the uploaded folder first? or can I use the images from the already existing albums? if yes, how to do that? I couldn't find a way to browse to the created albums from the tiny mce.

    Thank you for any help.

    1. Yes, that is what I had suggested next..:-)

    2. No, you don't need to browser or paste anything. The CombiNews feature works like a rss feed for latest images. The uploaded images will be automatically shown with their image description as if they were news articles and sorted by date (or what option you chose) within the real news articles loop. They are still separate in your albums.

    If you want to paste a specific image to a page or news articles, you would have either to know the url or you can also move your albums folder into the uploaded folder (you need to set the path then manually in zp-core/zp-config.php)

    "If you want to paste a specific image to a page or news articles, you would have either to know the url or you can also move your albums folder into the uploaded folder (you need to set the path then manually in zp-core/zp-config.php) " <--- i did this part...but when i click on the "image" button and click on the "browse" button, it says "Permission denied: session/ is not writable."

    any ideas?
