Joomla Templates

hi i was wondering how do i get multiple clouds to work when i make a new one it displays the same info as the others even though the links are set for different info i think it has something to do with the swf file could you please assist me with setting this up by providing some input on how to do this i would like to set up 4-6 seperate clouds any ideas how i can do this

Hi, I would have to get my colleague to look at this but he is unavailable until Sun.

You could open the mod_joomulus.zip and change the name of the module in the .xml file - cal it Joomulus 2 - possibly rename the zip as well.

Then install this as a separate module.

Just thinking out loud - cannot promise it will work

well i wish that would have worked i tried that yesterday the result is a set of boxes that dont show any clouds in them at all

ok - when you do that perhaps also do a find 'mod_joomulus' on the other files in the mod_joomulus zip - there may be a number of file paths thatneed to be updated.

I could be off the mark with this - perhaps it won't work - The Joomulus dev is in on Sunday.

ok so that kinda worked but not really ...lol so i get the clouds now but both the same i think it has something to do with the flash movie i will fiddle with it for a while but please pass this on to them to work on i would like to figure it out when ever possible ...
oh and by the way you have a really nice product here just wanted to let you know

any update on this

just wondering if you got any where with this

It's the mod_joomulus.php file that's responsible.
The following code is in place to ensure only some things happen once like the closing base tag.

//check instance of helper class, basic singleton
if (!is_object($joomlushelper_instance)) {
// does not currently exist, so create it
require_once (dirname(__FILE__).DS.'helper.php');
$joomlushelper_instance = new joomulusHelper($paramsArry);
$mainframe->addCustomHeadTag("<!--[if IE]></base><![endif]-->");
}

removing line 14 out of the code that only gets applied once solves this. I tried to code joomulus so you could have more than one instance of joomulus on a page for what ever reason, but failed to check that the params were independent. I've updated the joomulus download with the change or just copy and paste the following code over the above code
//check instance of helper class, basic singleton
if (!is_object($joomlushelper_instance)) {
// does not currently exist, so create it
require_once (dirname(__FILE__).DS.'helper.php');
$mainframe->addCustomHeadTag("<!--[if IE]></base><![endif]-->");
}
$joomlushelper_instance = new joomulusHelper($paramsArry);

hey thank you very much now i will be able to fully utilize the awesome mod you made thank you
