Hi,
I'm building a site using the Shop&Buy template, and I've set up the three boxes below the main slideshow using News Show Pro GK5 just like the demo. But I would like to customize the box links, and make them point to a menu item instead of the article. Is this possible?

Probably the best solution is just to use default Joomla mod_menu module, with News Show Pro module links may redirect only to articles/products.

OK, thank you. I guess that's the easiest way. Can I add some kind of custom CSS to the modules in order to render image and text similar to the demo, or do I have to write my own CSS style?

Mod menu usually have some base styling in our templates by adding suffix '_menu' - please check module variations page. If you want to make it similar to main menu you need to create you own rules.

OK, I ended up using mod_custom, copying the code from the existing GK News modules and changing the link.
Code: Select all
<figure class="gkNspPM gkNspPM-CenteredTitleOverlay active">
        <a href="/jobs"><img src="images/jobs.jpg" alt="Browse Jobs"></a>
        <figcaption>
            <div>
                <div>
                    <h3>
                        <a href="/jobs" title="Browse Jobs">Browse Jobs</a>
                    </h3>
                    <p>
                        <a href="/jobs" title="Browse Jobs">Browse our catalog of available jobs for you. Find one that suits you and apply directly online!</a>
                    </p>
                </div>
            </div>
        </figcaption>
    </figure>

The content is static, so this works for me.

Yes it is the best solution until the content is static as you said :) in other case mod_menu is probably better solution.
