Hello,

First of all I want to tell you people you made a great template again.
Thanks for the effort.

I have 3 questions (also see the attachment)

First question:
I have alot of white space between the article on the frontpage and the next module position
How can I change that?

Second question:
There is no "login" thing showing on the frontpage and other pages.
Only the "Register" is showing.

Third question:
Where can I change the language of the register form and the login form?
I want to translate the whole thing into dutch.

Thanks for the answers.

Stijn :silly:

I assume ...enabled login :)

For translation of Register...look inside your language file for Register, if you do not have it there, add it....as this is code calling it:
Code: Select all
<?php echo JText::_('REGISTER'); ?>



PS: can not help more without URL...as I write this again and again and again :)

Find this code inside
Code: Select all
htmlcom_contentcategoryblog_item.php


inside template directory:

Code: Select all
<tr>
      <td colspan="2" ><table width="100%" class="read_block">
          <tr>
            <?php if ($this->item->params->get('show_readmore') && $this->item->readmore) : ?>
            <td><a href="<?php echo $this->item->readmore_link; ?>" class="readon<?php echo $this->item->params->get('pageclass_sfx'); ?>">
              <?php if ($this->item->readmore_register) :
            echo JText::_('Register to read more...');
         elseif ($readmore = $this->item->params->get('readmore')) :
            echo $readmore;
         else :
            echo JText::sprintf('Read more...');
         endif; ?>
              </a></td>
            <?php endif; ?>
            <?php if ( intval($this->item->modified) != 0 && $this->item->params->get('show_modify_date')) : ?>
            <td class="modifydate" valign="middle"><?php echo JText::_( 'Last Updated' ); ?> ( <?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->modified, JText::_('DATE_FORMAT_LC2')); ?> ) </td>
            <?php endif; ?>
          </tr>
        </table></td>
    </tr>


And change to this:
Code: Select all
 <?php if ($this->item->params->get('show_readmore') && $this->item->readmore) : ?>
    <tr>
      <td colspan="2" ><table width="100%" class="read_block">
          <tr>
           
            <td><a href="<?php echo $this->item->readmore_link; ?>" class="readon<?php echo $this->item->params->get('pageclass_sfx'); ?>">
              <?php if ($this->item->readmore_register) :
            echo JText::_('Register to read more...');
         elseif ($readmore = $this->item->params->get('readmore')) :
            echo $readmore;
         else :
            echo JText::sprintf('Read more...');
         endif; ?>
              </a></td>
            <?php endif; ?>
            <?php if ( intval($this->item->modified) != 0 && $this->item->params->get('show_modify_date')) : ?>
            <td class="modifydate" valign="middle"><?php echo JText::_( 'Last Updated' ); ?> ( <?php echo JHTML::_('date', $this->item->modified, JText::_('DATE_FORMAT_LC2')); ?> ) </td>
         
          </tr>
        </table></td>
    </tr>   <?php endif; ?>

do you have cache on?
PS: when we speak about index.php with regard to template, it is always file inside templates/template_name/

Hi

Did you set the login form module on the login module position?

For any other help configuration, you now can check the respective HelpFile of this template.
Please, donwload again the rest files package.

Cheers ;)

My login was not working either. All I did was activate the GK Login Module in the LOGIN module position.

Since I installed this template on an existing installation of joomla, i could not get all the benefits of a clean QuickStart install.

So I had and still have many things that need to be fixed.

But login is working now.

Hi

If you have the respective HelpFile of the Car Magazine template,
you can see references to all the modules used on the demo and also
some screenshots of their respective parameters configurations.
This may be a very good start to built your website, without the QuickStart version.

Cheers ;)

Hello!

I have a problem with the Read More link not displaying correctly. It would almost seem to be to big for the button graphic.

Could you help identify the problem please? You can view the problem on my home > blog page http://www.royalbushtigers.com/

Thanks in advance!
