Invoice theme help please

Question asked by Natalie Collinson 9 years ago

I am wanting to use the default ClearBooks invoice theme of Tango Mango, however, there appears to be some errors within the formatting of this theme.

When previewing the theme you see:

  • Blank space to left for logo
  • My company details and client details in centre
  • Invoice details to the right

... all nicely aligned.

However, the moment you upload your own logo, it pushes our company name downwards and across to the right and forces client details even further down the page.

I've tried re-sizing our logo bigger, smaller, square, rectangle - no variations appear to make any difference.

Additionally, in the preview version in the footer it shows line 1 to be our company details and line 2 to be Company Number & VAT no, however, in the live version, this appears to be an extended single sentence with a messy wrap around.

It seems that others have raised this issue previously (eg. https://secure.clearbooks.co.uk/community/ideas/4774/invoice-template) however, I'm unable to find any work around solutions for this.

As this is one of 5 standard default themes - and a theme I'd really like to utilise - I'd be most grateful for any guidance anyone can offer in resolving these formatting issues.

Many thanks!

Unless you're a CSS expert I doubt you'll get too far with this.

However, I do believe Clear Books are rehashing the invoice section so there's some kind of tool that makes designing your own nice and simple.

I hope i'm right, looking forward to it if so.

Thanks Kevin, but with the default standard themes, eg. Tango Mango - there doesn't even appear to be a CSS section to edit.

This would seem to be a styling formatting issue with the core template - although, I'm very much hoping I'm wrong and there is a user solution to this.
