Yes Im Too, PLEASE share the solution

Hi,

 

There is a solution, you have to try it out if this is what you're trying to achieve.

 

K2 content module displays the items in a list. So, you need to decide whats the width of the area you want to display the module in. Next just style the UL and LI accordingly. You need to add css style info into your k2.css.

 

This is what i did, and it seems to work fine. Like i said, you need to determine the width in px.

 

div.k2ItemsBlock ul { width: 700px; list-style-type: none; } div.k2ItemsBlock ul li { float: left; width: 300px; margin: 0px 20px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; }

 

 

Thanx Kannan. I'll try that and let you know how it worked. cheers

Thankyou very much, BUT if want use various k2 modules and want only 1 use multicolumn?

 

how can i do this?

Hi vcan tante,

 

You can make use of the MVC template override and create a folder in your templates html folder

Eg : [template folder]/html/mod_k2_content/your overrides folder

 

Edit the default.php and change the class="k2ItemsBlock" to your own value and include the css properties in the k2.css

 

Then, when adding the K2 Content modules, just select the override folder name in the dropdown for Select Sub-Template

 

It should work.
