Customize the contents of the ddSlick Dropdown widget

    Asked on May 31, 2015 at 12:12 PM

    Can I change the widget to go from right to left, i.e.:

    1. the arrow's dropdown on the left side

    2. the images on the far right side of the line, and the text to the left of them

    3. the entire menu should be on the right side

    (basically, everything is mirrored)

     

    I've added the following code and it fixes the regular dropdown menu but it has no effect on the widget.

    .form-all{ 

    direction: rtl; 

    }

     

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, it seems like the ddSlick widget cannot be styled using custom CSS code as of the moment, it's design is loaded at the widgets server and is embedded on an iFrame.

    I will escalate this to our developers to see if they can add a custom CSS code area inside that widget. Unfortunately, I'm unable to guarantee that this will be implemented. 

    For the meantime, I would suggest using the default drop down field as this is easily customizable using CSS codes, although this doesn't have an option to add an image on it. 

    Regards.

    Hello, 

    You can now customize the widget layout using the Custom CSS tab as shown:

    Try pasting in the following code to change the widget orientation to RTL: 

    body {

        direction: rtl;

    }

    Let us know if that helps. 

    Thanks!

    Thanks, but it still doesn't work.

    Took a second look and while the text is now RTL, I would like for the entire box to be moved also to the right.

    Another problem now is that the arrow on the dropdown menu needs to be moved to the left, otherwise it blocks some of the text.

    Thanks!
