Joomla Templates

Great template!!
I do have a problem though. I am attempting to run The RokBox plugin from RocketWerx www.rocketwerx.com/products/rokbox/overview with the template but am having problems. The plugin will work with every other template I have activated but as soon as I activate tranparentbliss the rokbox links stop working and the link turns into a standard link that opens the image in a new regular window and not the rokbox window. Like I said if I switch templates it works as it should
My site is here www.k6gph.org
I also have a test server at home and have the same results there. Mootools.js is supposed to be run in order for rokbox to work and I do see the script call if you look at view source.
I have made some mods to the template. I grab backgrounds directly from their remote source and not off of my server. I have removed the right 3rd column. I also expanded the main center column. I changed the transparency values of the content backgrounds. I added a footer to the bottom where the google adsense resides. I am running in Legacy mode to accommodate the video section, I switched back and forth with no change in rokbox.

Hi,
I'm taking a punt that the issues is a conflict between the RokBox script and the template CSS switcher.
We're actually rebuilding this template and have made many improvements including the style switcher now being a module so that it can be moved around - if you can wait a day or two we shuld have this version up.

In the meantime you could try disabling the style swicther and see if rokbox works.

Never thought of the css switcher. I will remove it and try a test. Will not be able to do so until tomarrow sometime as it is getting late here. Running on pacific time.
Will try and get it done somewhere around 6 am pst and post back with the results.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I bit the bullet and did it now, I think the switcher is removed. Look at my test server, below is a link to the page in question. The bottom row is rokbox the upper row is "Simple Image Gallery" by JoomlaWorks. The SIG works fine. RokBox still does not work. Here is the link to my testing server k6gph.kicks-ass.org/joom/index.php/techn...- information/10.html

Here is the RokBox code I am using

{rokbox album=|Tiger Tail|}images/stories/tiger2/*{/rokbox}

Hi,
I had a quick look - couple of things - template switcher still working so jscript could be conflicting. Secondly, what does RokBox actually do? SIG looks great - is RokBox the same type of thing?

Yes RokBox is basically the same thing. OK, on my live site I removed the modded TB and uploaded a fresh install of the template. The page is here k6gph.org/index.php/technical-information/10.html
If the switcher is still running now I must have installed it somewhere else also. I might have to upload joomla again to fix that. My testing server template is still the modded one. k6gph.kicks-ass.org/joom/index.php/techn...- information/10.html

I messed around with rokbox a bit in the past, it seems to either work great or cause loads of problems... it has some great features, but atm it's not very useful for the average user...

took me ages to figure out that it doesn't work with capital letters in directory names... or filenames/extensions.

From what I can see, if the css switcher from Dreamweaver Joomla Template Kit - www.m65.net is installed you will see this code just above the opening body tag


I also see this style sheet changer


Is that the switcher for the bacground or is it someting else? And is that the switcher you said to disable and if so how do I do that?
As a note I put my modded transparent bliss 2 back up at k6gph.org.

Being able to move the style switcher to another location or even to a dedicated page would really rock. I think you have one of the greatest templates out there for my application.
I would like to add two or more images to the switcher. I think I know how to go about it as it is now but if you change it to a module that will throw me out. As for the rokbox I have decided to go with the Simple Image Gallery instead. Looking forward to the next version of Transparent Bliss!
