Print button print whole page not main content

[Ben_360fusion]

Hi,

I have an issue with the print button included in the article section along with the pdf, facebook and twitter buttons.

When printing it prints the whole website including header, left and right nav and footer.

Should it do this? I hoped it would just print the main content. Is there anyway I can get it to just print the main content just like the PFD button only shows main content.

I don't really want to have to get people to view a pdf and then print that as it isn't very intuative or simple enough for people.

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but couln't find the topic it was in and I've checked the demo site and this is the default action on there too.

Is there any way around this?

Any help appreciated.

Hi Ben,

Unsure if I have misunderstood, but is as simple as creating a print.css file with a media type of print.

The get rid of the bits you do not want like:

#header { display:none; }
#left { display:none; }

Cheers, Gary.

Hi Gary,

Yes, it really was that simple. I had a css file for print but this was just the default one that comes with Contao. I assumed that this is how it would be set by default.

I've hidden all content i don't want and it works a treat.

Many thanks
Ben
