how to creat K2 category separate template

Hello.
Can anybody help me with K2 category template creation.
For example now at my site there are two category: "Новости" and "Фотогалерея".
I want to make separate css styles for the first category "Новости".
I tried as was suggested at different forums.
But nothing don`t work.
What I made:
1) I installed plugin CSS4K2.
2) I go to the folder medic.com/www/components/com_k2 / templates - copy it and rename it to my_styles.

3) Next I go to the folder medic.com/www/templates/finance_business/hmtl/com_k2 / templates / the default folder is already here, I insert here new folder my_styles.
4) Inside this folder (my_styles) I create my own style sheet my_styles.css.
5) In the category parametres - there is available to choose template, and I choose my new template my_styles.

It didn`t work.
I`m trying to do this several days, but can`t.
What I`m doing wrong?

Should I rewrite all files in templates/finance_business/hmtl/com_k2 / templates (I mean to rewrite generic.php, profile.php, register.php, user.php by the files from /components/com_k2 / te mplates ) ?

And I tried to do it by adding Page Class Suffix, but I don`t know it , can anybody help me.

I make a video what I do all my steps. If it not difficult for you to watch this video.

Hi

I do not know this plugin. Anyway when I need a k2 style override I simply duplicate a template located in /HTML/com_k2/templates/default and giving it a new name which will display as a new template. That right inside files you are interested of changing I'm adding CSS and make php/HTML changes.

I have the same question.. I need to make some custom K2 field layout overrides - I go to this folder:

Code: Select all

templates/gk_musicity/html/com_k2/templates/default/

copy all files (item.php etc) to a new folder and make changes:

Code: Select all

templates/gk_musicity/html/com_k2/templates/myk2layout/

and then what? where do I specify that this new "myk2layout" layout must be used?

Hi

Templates for K2 needs to be choosen in K2 category settings. Basicaly You edit category information and select new template so this category and it's items will be using files from newly created folder. But please remember that this cattegory cannot inherit setting from another category, because it will not work and template used for the category above will be taken.
