hey everyone
I am using the steak house template. However, i have a few difficulties in changing template. I am new for joomla

Firstly, how can add background picture on the front page?

Secondly, i cannot arrange the space between lines. For example, the contact us module, i tried to change phone number and need to write additional information, but the space between text and phone number is too much. How can i write it properly?

Thirdly, I try to write menu module on single line. As far as i understood, this module consists of three parts such as title+sub text and price. I dont want to use sub-text and price in another line. Is it possible to write title and price in the same line?

Finally, i unpublished one of the module, but it remains space between modules? how can i fix it?

I am also adding screenshots which i tried to describe, i will be appreciated with any help

Hi

1. Frontpage background can be manipulated by adding this class:

Code: Select all
.frontpage #gkHeader {
    background: url("../images/header_bg.jpg") no-repeat fixed center top rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
}


or simply replace /images/header_bg.jpg image with Your own.

2. You can change the spaces between lines of a big icon text with this css code:

Code: Select all
.box.big-icon a {
    line-height: 100px;
}


3. This will look bad, but try please try:

Code: Select all
.gk-menu dt {
    float: left;
    margin: 0 10px 0 0;
}


4. This will help:

Code: Select all
.gk-special-menu li:nth-child(2n+3) {
clear: both;
}

ALL CHANGES NEEDS TO BE DONE IN OVERRIDE.CSS FILE, JUST REMEMBER TO ALLOW USING OVERRIDE IN TEMPLATE SETTINGS.

Hi

I do not know about the link, You should ask on joomla forum about that.

While You are making changes to some custom html modules You need to disable using editor, becuase joomla editors does not do HTML5 well. This module is one of them. Please disable editor in user settings, revert the previous code with original (You can find it here: https://www.gavick.com/documentation/jo ... figuration) and make changes again. Images will stay where they were in demo.

Hi

I'll try explain in steps:

1. In joomla panel go to Users Manager than select Your user and in Basic settings set Editor to NONE
2. Go to module from question, edit it and copy the orginal code inside which can be found here: https://www.gavick.com/documentation/wp ... frame=true
3. Make Your changes and save.
