I have a custom component built for a Joomla 2.5 website. It is working fine, except that the modules which display on all pages on the website (logo, global navigation, etc) are pushed under–instead of on top of– the component.
I’ve been looking into other components to see what is wrong, to no avail. Would this have to do with the ‘views’ folder? Perhaps the controller.php?
I also considered wrapping my component in a module, and then setting its position as low as possible as a workaround. Unfortunately, all the extensions I could find for this utility cost more money than I have…
Please help! Thank you 🙂
Assuming that you’ve following the standard MVC framework within Joomla, then with almost 100% certainty your problem will lie in the CSS styles/classes that you’re using and how they work with the template stylesheets. If you’re not using Firebug, get that and install it to see what CSS is causing the problem.
