Hi there, on the demo site screenshot here: http://cloud.stackideas.com/images/easyblog_images/67899/a1sx2_FIT_elegant-1.png in the top right hand corner there seems to be a module that shows a nice notification icons like email and notifications etc.

I tried activating this on my site here, in position-7 and I get: http://i60.tinypic.com/20b08xg.jpg

I am not sure if I am using the correct module firstly and secondly if there is any custom styling needed to get that clean look and thirdly how to position it to the left of the dropdown menu appearing on the profile login module when logged in? Thanks in advance.
Hi James,

The icons you mention has been deprecated, EasySocial 1.4 is using fontawesome icons now.
For the modules position issues for you can replace the attached theme.css into /templates/elegant/css/theme.css

Hi James,

Not really what module you are using there on your site but in order to display a nice notification bar in a module, you can use mod_easysocial_notifications module.

if there is any custom styling needed to get that clean look

It depends on the current look and behavior with your templates. If there are any styling conflict, you need to tweak it a little bit to make it look nicer. However by default the styling is already looks like the demo site and you don't have to heavily modify the module styling in order to achieve it.

how to position it to the left of the dropdown menu appearing on the profile login module when logged in?

I'm not quite sure if I understand you here. Can you elaborate more on this question?

Thanks Ezul, ok so I provided my site details here and if you login and look in the top right you can see what I mean here. The notifications module should be to the left of the dropdown for the login and not under it of course. I hope this is now clearer. Thanks

Hi Chang, thanks for this but the type of icons is not really what I am talking about here. all I am referring to is the following screenshot attached. As you can see when the user is logged into the site the icons in the top right appear directly under the small user profile image and dropdown, of course they should be to the left of this small profile image and dropdown and not directly underneath it. I assume you can see this? I hope I am explaining myself clearly now.
