Page Block Resize

Hello Everyone,

Does anyone know how to adjust the page blocks width and height on the homepage?  I want to make a "advertisement" block that I can place a 728X90 banner into, using an "HTML" block for google adsense ads.

Thank you,

Jeff

You cannot change the size of the blocks. They match the width of the column. You can adjust the width of the entire column but not a individual page block.

If you want to use the built-in column in Dolphin, you can do it in Admin Page builder and pick the page you want to include bunner or anything you need. you'll see there Column 1..2..etc

So, It seems to me that when i have three columns, things don't display correctly? Even if I make the browser full screen.

The profile info block shown in the image will not fit in a column smaller then 380px. If you need to go smaller than that, then all the css for info in that block will need to be adjusted as well.

So, I used the Deano tools :) to reset the page width to 998. Not that I think I changed any...

So, I take 998 /3 and i get 332.

But, it looks like the columns need 380... so three columns looks like it is not an option?

Deano thanks for your advice on things.

OK-

So, I may be close on the problem. I checked. Sure enough the page size is 998.

Each of the two columns takes up 33% and one third of the area on the right, remains blank.

I'm gonna fiddle around with this some more, but if anybody has some help. I would like each column to take up 50% if there are only two columns.

I attached a screenshot for a better description of what I am dealing with.

Thanks!

Aparently page builders still thinks there is a 3'rd column.

Try adding a column and then deleting it and see if it corrects the glitch.

OK- This is soooooooooooo weird....

In order to get the columns to display 50% each.  I added a column and then deleted it.

Hey, its weird, but it worked!

HTML blocks adjust their height to their content. You'd have to include something like a <div> or <table> and specify its height manually if you want something specific.

If you add the HTML code for a Facebook like button or advertisement, the HTML block will automatically adjust its height to the content inside it, meaning you wouldn't have to manually specify the height.

 

That said, if you really want to adjust the height manually, you'd need to add something like this:

 

<div style="height: 100px;">&nbsp;</div>
