I currently only have LHS modules published on the RSEvents pages, but if I published RHS modules too then I am guessing the space for descriptions would be limited. As it is, with only LHS modules published I would still prefer for the text to wrap under the guest menu which would give much more width and lengthy descriptions would take up less page length.

Is there a CSS fix to make this happen at all ? Or will it be considered for a design update at some point ?

well it's any module. I had published in the Left Hand Side a module displaying links to other pages on the site. I have unpublished them and obviously there is now more page width for the course description.

The point is that under the 'Guest Menu' of the RS Events decsription form is white space. This is wasted space. If the text of the description wrapped under the Guest Menu it wouldn't be wasted.

If modules are published in left hand side and right hand side there is left very little page width for the description. So it seems ideal that the description wraps under the 'Guest Menu'.

Hello,

You will have to modify the design html file (it is found in joomla\components\com_rsevents).
First cut this lines from where they are:
<div id="rsevents-event-description">
<p>{EventDescription}</p>
</div><!-- rsevents-event-description -->

And paste them under this lines:
</div><!-- rsevents-col-left -->
<span class="rsevents-clear"></span>

Like this:
</div><!-- rsevents-col-left -->
<span class="rsevents-clear"></span>
<div id="rsevents-event-description">
<p>{EventDescription}</p>
</div><!-- rsevents-event-description -->

And you won't have any wasted spaces.

Regards!

I guess the HTML file has changed in an update ? as I can't find the code indicated. Is there an alternative way of doing this with the new HTML files ?
