Hi,

The column on the left is actually created with a background image that repeats vertically giving the column effect.

You would need to create a new template based on the theme you have downloaded and apply this to the Fireboard section of your site.

The content area also has a fixed width so you would need to modify this in the CSS.

I would duplicate the template folder - then in the duplicate change the name of the template in templateDetails.xml to fireboard-theme or something similar.

Then you would need to open body.png in an image editor and replace the grey area on the left with white {not the 1 pixel grey border on far left} save your new image into your duplicate template images folder as body.png to replace the old one.

open your duplicate templates index.php and remove the left <div> entries:

<div id="left">
<?php mosLoadModules('user1', -2); ?>
<div id="leftInner">
<?php mosLoadModules ( 'left', -2 ); ?>
</div>
</div>

Then open layout.css and change the #content width to something like 830px - you can tweak this later to get the width right - you are basically adding the width and padding values that have been removed from the left column so that #content takes up the full screen width.

Upload your template to your sites templates directory - go into your joomla admin - site menu > template manager and "apply" the template to your fireboard menu.

Voila!

If all of this seems like to much work we do custom template development - this modification is probably an hours work.

Ola,

Thanks for your time and respons of my added issue.

Ok, i did what you have been published.

I think something not doing well by me...
You provided the following:
Then you would need to open body.png in an image editor and replace the grey area on the left with white {not the 1 pixel grey border on far left} save your new image into your duplicate template images folder as body.png to replace the old one.
You see I not understand it wel...
See here: http://test.vipyammer.com/index.php

The whole template must be stay intact (Left frame and Content Frame). Removed the entries from the index.php and changed the layout.css (#content to 830px) but as you can see still the same (Yes I know...the body.png was set wrong).
When clicking on the Fireboard button (On the TOP) still the FB showing only in the content frame...

What did I wrong...

Still want to continiu with this super free template!

PS: Soor for my poor english. I'm Dutch
I'M attached the body.png...Maybe you have some little time to correct this as you sad...
File Attachment:
File name: copy_of_body.zip
File size:417 bytes


Hoppefully you are able to help me out with this...

Greetings,
Vipyammer
