Using Transparent Bliss 3.0: Some questions 2 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 0
Hello!

I just renewed my membership to get Transparent Bliss for my actual homepage project: gammaray.org.dd14436.kasserver.com/

First time for me doing a page with joomla, although I've tried it out a year ago.

Some questions that someone might be able to anwer quicker than I find the solution while working on the page:

    - How can I center the logo on the full page?

    - How can I add a footer with Copyright information of the band page, etc.?

    - How can I get back the stars and the onmouse over color in the menu from version 2.0?

    - How can I "higher" the middle and right column on the same level than the menu?! I don't want to have so much space between the logo and the page content!


I am heading for any answer that might help!

Thanks!
Harald.

Hi Harald,

the logo is only configured for the left site. Please use to center it the headwrap. I have add a picture where you can see the result. ;-)
To do this, search in the css at first:

Code:

#logo {
background-image:url("../images/logo.png");
background-repeat:no-repeat;
height:90px;
width:417px;
}



Change it to:

Code:

#logo {
width:417px;
}



Then search the headwrap:

Code:

#headwrap {
height:90px;
margin-bottom:10px;
width:980px;
}



and change it to:

Code:

#headwrap {
height:90px;
margin-bottom:10px;
width:980px;
background-image:url("../images/logo.png");
background-position:center;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}



Now you have centered your logo, and the space between the logo and page contend is correct.

To use the old Menu style, search this lines:

Code:

ul.menu {
padding-bottom: 15px;
border-top-width: 1px;
border-top-style: dotted;
border-top-color: #666666;
}
.menu li, .menu {
display: block;
list-style-type: none;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-indent: 8px;
line-height: 21px;
}
.menu li li a{
text-indent:18px;
list-style:inside;
list-style-type:disc;
}
.menu li a {
display: block;
height: 20px;
padding: 3px;
position: relative;
left: 1px;
width: 172px;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
border-bottom-style: dotted;
border-bottom-color: #666666;

}
.menu li a:link, ul.menu a:visited {
display: block;
color:#E8E8E8;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
.menu li a:hover {
display: block;
background-color: #000;
color: #FFF;

}
ul#mainlevel a:link#active_menu, ul#mainlevel a: visited#active_menu {
background-image: none;
background-color: #FFF;
color: #000;
}



and overwrite it with this lines:

Code:

ul.menu {
padding-bottom: 15px;
border-top-width: 1px;
border-top-style: dotted;
border-top-color: #666666;
}
.menu li, .menu {
display: block;
list-style-type: none;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
text-indent: 18px;
line-height: 21px;
}
.menu li a {
display: block;
height: 20px;
padding: 3px;
position: relative;
left: 1px;
width: 172px;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
border-bottom-style: dotted;
border-bottom-color: #666666;
background-image: url(../images/star.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 4px 50%;
}
.menu li a:link, ul.menu a:visited {
display: block;
color: #FFF;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
}
.menu li a:hover {
display: block;
background-color: #88cfff;
color: #000;
background-image: url(../images/star-hover.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 4px 50%;
}
ul#mainlevel a:link#active_menu, ul#mainlevel a: visited#active_menu {
background-image: none;
background-color: #FFF;
color: #000;
}

I am also working on a couple of small updates to this template that will be released in the next couple of days - there will be a new footer area and customisable copyright parameter as we have in the new blackbear.myjoomlatemplate.com/

Some more questions that appeared while working... 2 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 0
Well, because the former webmaster of the page I am working on (www.gammaray.org) sucks, I had to copy all old news and guestbook entries today, because he said he has other pages in the databases so that he couldn't make any copies of the db's for me! That sucks, doesn't it?!

Working hard on the page because of that I got some more questions that maybe might be answered here as well.

    - How can I add a image border to the stylesheet so that every image get a grey border f. e.? I tried to look for sth. like images, but there aren't any definitions yet, where I could add it! I think that there are two possibilities: a) add it as a style to the tinymce Styles and b) automatically add a boarder to any picture on the page.


    - 2nd thing is that I could make it that there submenues appaering on the menu like possible. "Members" and "Discography" should have a submenu that opens. Like on this customized template: www.homecookingforsmarties.com/ It already works but soesn't show up as a submenu...


    - I am adding a lot of old articles at the moment, because I am importing the whole old news from 2005 to 2010 and I don't want to have to time always displayed on the date stamp! I could remove the edited notice, but all postings still have "Tuesday, 16 March 2010 00:00" I do not want the time to show up ever.


The temporarely link still is: gammaray.org.dd14436.kasserver.com/

Hello Helloweenie,

yes, with your old site sucks. But your old webmaster can select and export individual tables if he wants. ;-)
Your old site was a typo3 site, that makes the import from the tables not easy.

Now to your problems:

I would be use the JoomlaFCK WYSIWYG editor. See: joomlabear.com/3-joomlabear-template-support/3953- wysiwyg.html

When you have installed it, go in the backend in the Global Config and set it to the default editor.

There are several possibilities to setup styles for images. One fast way is that you add in the template.css from TtransparentBliss
for example this lines:

.image {
border: 10px solid #FFFFFF;
}

Then go in a article, you see the new WYSIWYG editor ;-) , and select there as Stylesheet: Default.
Mark an image in select the Style: image

Now you have a border to your image.



You mean the Accordion Menu? They use the SBD Accordion Menu for Joomla


To disable the time from an articel, you must modify the file "en-GB.ini" (find it under language/en-GB/)

Please overwrite the: "DATE_FORMAT_LC2=%A, %d %B %Y %H:%M" with: "DATE_FORMAT_LC2=%A, %d %B %Y"

Unfortunately that is for all articel on your site. And when you add a Joomla Update, it can bee that they update the language files and you must remove it again.

GermanBear

Trying to update / install the new editor, I get this message:



* Warnung! - Die Datei kann nicht verschoben werden!
* JFile::read: Unable to open file: '/www/htdocs/w00c752d/tmp/ bot_JoomlaFCKeditor_intl_2.6.4.1.tgz'
* Unable to read archive

:-(

I did not manage to add any other module yet, it doesn't work!

Ok, I think the problem is that thas is a linux archive .tgz. Your server can not unzip it.

On Joomlaos.de in Germany is the extension as .zip.

You understand German?

Please try this: www.joomlaos.de/option,com_remository/ It...ileinfo/id,3739.html

Re:Some more questions that appeared while working... 2 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 19
seems to be a problem with the rights. Please go in the backend and see under:

Help >> System Info >> Directory Permissions

if all folders are writable.

Have you already installed extensions??

Ja klar kann ich ein bisschen Deutsch! *Scherz* ...

Ich komme aus Hannover!

Es scheint an den Verzeichnisrechten (Schreibrechten) zu liegen, ich stelle das grad mal um und probiere es erneut!

It worked out, giving other directory permissions in the system, I could install the plugin but now when I activate the new editor and deactivate Tiny... I only see white pages clicking on an article to edit!

Seems to be still quite tricky to extend joomla?!

I'am not understand why it not run. I have installed it several times without problems.

I found this:

1). Find fckeditor.class.php in your fck install directory;
2). Find string oFCKeditor.Config["UseAspell"] = '. (function_exists("pspell_check")) .';
3). Replace it with oFCKeditor.Config["UseAspell"] = "'. (function_exists("pspell_check")) .'";
