Cool tip.. 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
I use this module a little differently and I love it. I move the KC Quick Icons to the Title module position (in Joomla 1.6 Bluestork).

Then, I add the following code to the template.css in Bluestork. This keeps the KC Icons visible almost all the time instead of just in the control panel. It give my clients some nice big buttons for them to easily access the most common things they use like Media, Articles, Main Menu, Modules.

I love it! Thanks Keashly B)

Code:


#kc_admin_quickicons_cpanel div.icon a {
    border: none;
    width: 78px;
    height: 85px;
}

#kc_admin_quickicons_cpanel div.icon {
background-color: transparent;
margin-bottom: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
}

#kc_admin_quickicons_cpanel img {
    margin: 0 auto;
    padding: 3px 0;
}

#kc_admin_quickicons_cpanel {
    position: absolute;
    width: 900px;
    top: 107px;
    overflow: visible;
    border-left: 1px solid #ccc;
    margin-left: -12px;
}

div#toolbar-box, div#element-box div.section-box {
    margin-top: 100px;
}

Hi,

Thank you for sharing this tip.

I have now added this capability to the module as a standard feature for the Joomla 1.6-1.7 version as well as 5 more icons.

Yep, great place for them, but doesn't look quite right to me (see screenshot).

See how they overlay the notification? Any more and the message would be hidden. Published in the 'title' position in bluestork on 1.7.

How do I get them to the position shown in your screenshot?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

With the latest version of KC Admin QuickIcons (2.1.1 Beta) for Joomla 1.7, this has been setup for you automatically. You don't have to change/add any css, just change the Css Layout file to title.css in the module parameters and make sure the module is published in the title position.
