Just installed DT Register but am running into several problems around text formatting.

Simple question -- As a user walks through the registration process, they come to a page with:

Please check the data below and confirm that everything is correct. If so, click the SEND button. If not, click BACK and make the necessary corrections.

There isn\'t a SEND button but there is a NEXT STEP button. How and where do I either change the message or the button?

Second problem -- my Event title is long and the formatting within DT is not exactly professional looking. I\'d like to get rid of the bold \"Registration:\" for one.

I\'d also like to be able to apply a format to the title which is running over 3 lines. The kerning isn\'t set right, line spacing is non-existent. Can anyone help a newbie php/css hack? At least point me to where the title is getting it\'s formatting (or lack there of ) info?

Thanks,
-PL

First of all, there is a CSS file at:
/components/com_dtregister/main.css

This will allow you to modify the styling of most elements of DT Register.

Also, any text can be modified in the language file here:
/components/com_dtregister/language/english.dtregister.php

Search for the text you want to change, make your changes, save it and upload it back to your site.

Changing the language or CSS files will require using an FTP client or a component such as JoomlaXplorer or eXtplorer.

Regarding your event title, throughout the registration process the title using the styling (or lack thereof) of your own template :) It uses the componentheading class just like almost all other components do.

If you are referring to your event titles as shown on the main list of events, these are links so they pull the link styling from your template as well. There is styling in the main.css file for the alternating background colors of this list... you could add CSS to modify the links of the event titles... something like this:

.eventListRow1 a:link {
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #ffffff;
}

Style it as needed and be sure to do an entry for .eventListRow1 AND .eventListRow2. You could also make an entry for a:visited and a:hover to modify the styling on rollover. Do an online search for CSS and you\'ll find tons of tutorials if you need additional help as to what to use to get the look you want. Hope this helps.

I too am having a minor issue: Here is link to what I\'m referring: http://mannersunleashed.com/index.php?o ... individual

As you see, the \"NEXT STEP\" link at the bottom of the form is white, making impossible for clients to find. Can you point me in a direct where I can modify this and change the color darker? I\'m wondering if the theme template is somehow affecting this.

gordonmedley - That button has a style class name of \"button\". Your template must be affecting this. Either modify your template\'s css file (look for .button ) or add code to DT Register\'s CSS file at:
/components/com_dtregister/main.css

If you need specific code for this, let us know.
