several questions for boutique template

Hi,

I am really satisfied with the template and overall functions. I managed to change some things to my needs already using override css. (background pattern, font sizes header sizes etc.)

However, there are some issues I could not resolve:

1. print button: boutique logo still on print preview
2. email button: mail could not be sent without any more information
3. k2 user: when logged in with my account > all in German (wanted). When logged out > all login process in English without option to change (just default and English which is the same ;) ) Also, here is missing the "login with FB" option (which is not working anyway, posted that before in GK FB Board)
4. "your account" on right top of page > how to change those words? Could not find it in module managment, where I found it after a while (login position not documented).
5. when logged out "become a member" is showing even if login module is disabled ??? Why in English again? As mentioned all is set to German on my page.
6. I created a Menu item "Blog" with k2 articles assigned. I wanted 2 columns and 10 items per user to show with introtext. But there is only 1 column showing :( Also, is there an option or recommendation to have an archieve of all k2 articles sorted chronologically and searched for by month? e.g. I want to see all articles from august last year?

My configuration:
German Language files for joomla and k2 installed, template and joomla version latest. No caching activated, no merging of css nor javascript.

Any help - topic for topic - would be highly appreciated!

Thanks,

Bjoern

I'm afraid adding on overrule.css (in this case) it will not make any effect. You need to change on ../gk_boutique/css/system/print.css

That's not from us. You can search on joomla extensions some 3th component that provides you extra fields on contact form.

You need to translate k2 language file. Search on K2 website if there's already translation to German language. About the Facebook button, did you enable on template parameters ? Also be sure that you add correctly Facebook API code.

Our template have language support, so you need to copy en-GB.tpl_gk_boutique.ini from en-GB language directory, paste it on you native language, change prefix of file name and them you can start making your own translation.

It doesn't have anything with login module, but with GK Register module on "register" position.

You need to create a link type "Latest items from (one or more) users or categories " on menu and on content source set "Number of columns".

1. Thanks. will do that!
2. I did not explain well: I do not want to add further information. It´s just the message when I want to send the mail: "could not be sent" thats all, no further information WHY it could not be sent.
3.When I am logged in, all IS in German. I want to the module to appear in German by default. FB login is not offered in K2 user. That´s what I meant. Just when i type in a wrong password e.g. the fb login option is displayed. I did configure FB in template and extension correctly.
4.Again here: I am logged in with German language and when clocking on "Your account" I am welcome in my language and the "sign off" is displayed in German. It is just the two words "your account" that are not translated even when using the german language, right?
5. Thanks! will check that.
6.That's what I did! Still it is not DISPLAYING the 2 columns. Any idea for the secound part of the question?

UFF, thanks for helping so far :oops:
