Hide logo in main page

Hi to all!
I am using this beautiful template for my own CV. It's very nice, but I would like to make one change, and I don't know if it would be possible.

I would like to use the logo image in all pages except the home page, that is embebed in the background of imageshow gk4.
So, is it possible to remove the logo image only in main page adding code in override CSS?

The other possibility is creating a new position for a hmtl module, and place the logo inside, but .. If possible, I prefer change CSS, and not main template (for easy upgrading later!).

the site is in construction. you can see it in http://demo.amparopeiro.es

Thank you very much!

Can you please create a mock-up graphic on how you want this as you are referring to a image (logo) which is in imageshow GK4 background in homepage so if you are in other pages how would you see that image ( logo ) as it will be covered by your content in other pages.

So if you can post a graphic so we can understand better of what you want to accomplish.

See you around..

Thanks for the answer. I guess Is not possible what I want ..

I enclose screen capture of main page, without logo And other page, with logo. The logo is the text Amparo Peiro.

As you can see in the capture 1 with big images, there is no logo in top-left. In the second capture, you can see other page with logo.
If I enable the logo, it is showed in both pages, and I don't want the logo in the first one, that is main page. I only want the logo in the others.

And also, I wold like to change the position of "loading" text when it has been loaded (the top margin for it is too big)

Hope I have enclosed the files ok!
Thanks for all!

It is absolutely possible : ) , just follow below steps and you are good to go.

1 - Find Home Page menu itemid:
Go to Joomla Admin > Menus > Main Menu.
Find Home and follow its own line and at the end you will see its id number , in my test it is "101"

2. Setup PageClass for Home menu item id.
Go to Joomla Admin > Extensions > Template Manager > Select "gk_the_real_design - Default" Click to edit settings.
On the right Find and click on " Features "
Find "Suffixes for pages" towards bottom under "Features Section"
In "ItemID/Option:" enter the number you find in step1, in my case it is "101".
In "Suffix" i entered "homelogo". You can name it anything you want just make sure following css is also same name as what you enter in this section.
Click on Add Rule button. Now you will see below in your rules.
"ItemID 101 - homelogo".

3. Adding css for our pagesuffix.

Find File: "/templates/gk_realdesign/css/override.css"
Add below css code in there.

Code: Select all

/* Disabling logo in homepage only */
.homelogo h1#gkLogo { display: none;}
/* Moving anything after Main menu 30 pixels down in homepage only  */
.homelogo #gkMainMenu { margin-bottom:30px; }
/* Changing loading text position higher - change 10 percent as you require  */
.gkIsWrapper-gk_the_real_design .gkIsPreloader span.loading { margin-top: 10%; }


4. Enable Css Override Option:
Go to Joomla Admin > Extensions > Template Manager > Select "gk_the_real_design - Default" Click to edit settings.
On the right Find and click on " Advanced Features " and Enable Css Override to " On ".

You can use above example for any itemid ( page ) you require. Any questions post in here.

See you around...

normanUK, thank you very very much for your help !!!

It works perfectly, and I have discovered a new function in the template. Definitively, I adore gavick and its templates. Although I don't developpeved comercial sites, only for friends, family and 2 ONG's for free, I like the few sites I construct were "customized".

Overrides is for me, one of the best tips in the templates. Using this, at same time I am learning CSS, php, without previous idea and for adapting to the sites usually I only have to change override.css, that is nice because I can upgrade the template without effort.

I didn't know this function of the template, but now I will be able to do a lot of customisations in my CV and avoid me the use of 2 different templates in the site, because I have 2 diferent sections: my CV and the portfolio ( sites under joomla for my friends.)

Both question, perfectly solved and running!

No problem at all.

See you around...

Hello normanUK

I am trying to do the same thing (hiding the logo in main page only) for FEST template.
I tried all the steps you mentioned above and modified the override.css file. But I still see the template logo getting loaded in the main page also. How do I avoid the same?
Thanks for your help.

I am attaching my template.css and override.css files.

@melkoteinc, sorry I was away due to an operation, if you still need help on this let me know.
