I noticed that the text in the search module seems a bit off, might need a bit of padding so it fits in nicely

I was just going to leave it like that but since you've noticed I decided not to be lazy and fixed it :laugh:

Thanks!

May I just ask if there's any chance I can see these message myself so that I'll be able to debug? Thanks again for your time.

great template, here are some suggestions...
(tested with ie7 on your demo server)

Put a minimum size it can be shrunk to, as shrinks to the point where it breaks..
when you change the text size, it defaults back to blue, not the colour you are on.
when you change colours, it defaults the font size and does not stay to what you have chosen

and this is being really picky... just want you to know...
the font size change buttons don't have a transparent background, so when you resize the thing small enough, because of the change in colour of background, they look like they have a box around them

In all though, its very smart looking!

Use last SVN, full debug and errors on.
API has changed.

See the native file

Code:

<?php if ($this->params->get('link_category')) : ?>
            <?php echo '<a href="'.JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($this->item->catslug, $this->item->sectionid)).'">'; ?>
         <?php endif; ?>

yours is

Code:

<?php if ($this->params->get('link_category')) : ?>
            <?php echo '<a href="'.ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($this->item).'">'; ?>
         <?php endif; ?>

Those are really nice feedbacks, thanks a lot. I've been thinking if the real time colour theme switcher is really useful, other than confusing... I believe the option to choose a value for the parameter is handy enough. And I think few users would bother to use the real time colour theme switcher anyway... Therefore I've removed them so the text sizers would work properly

Also changed the css file to give the fluid width a minimum width value, quite nice this way. Moreover in this way the background of the text sizers wouldn't show up

Thanks very much for checking it out for me.

It's really weird because I didn't touch that part of the native file. Anyway I've changed the codes to be as it should be and hope it's working now. If it's still not working I guess I'll just lose the articleauthor class feature.

Cheers.

New update 1.0.3

Used Joomla! logo for the template.

Added a parameter to control Logo style - can choose plain text or background image as logo style.

Good to know! Although I can't notice anything here. May I know which browser you're using? I've changed the CSS file and hopefully it's gone by now

Was IE7, but looks as though you cured it.

In IE6, it seems that there is a problem with the "latest news" and "popular" modules though. They are not lining up properly.

Hi, thanks very much for pointing it out. Did you mean the icons are not lining up properly with the news items? If so the problem has already been fixed! Thanks again. :pop

I meant what Mat-D-Rat had posted, it seems like you got it fixed anyways. Also, the rss feed entries icon's png transparency isn't working in IE6.

BernardE · **Posted:** Sat Sep 22, 2007 7:38 pm

Wow! This is really a beautiful template - great work.

tourisme.solidaire · **Posted:** Sat Sep 22, 2007 8:51 pm

Your template is very great

When I wanted to modify some parameters in your template I have seen in the part "detail" the template_thumbnail ?.....
I don't understand how do you do ?...
Properties of your picture = http://www.redevo.net/libaidocuments/or ... mbnail.png
It's a good idea,can you explain ?
Thanks

MuffinDCC · **Posted:** Sat Sep 22, 2007 8:54 pm

You place that in your templateDetails.xml inside

tourisme.solidaire · **Posted:** Sat Sep 22, 2007 8:59 pm

Where is it ? I don't see it in the xml file

Code:

tourisme.solidaire · **Posted:** Sat Sep 22, 2007 9:03 pm

in templateDetails.xml

Code:

<description>REDEVO_APHELION_DESC</description>

and in language file en-GB.tpl_redevo_aphelion.ini

nice Job
Thank

MuffinDCC · **Posted:** Sun Sep 23, 2007 4:28 pm

Just some notes from testing

1# The favicon is missing - the image and reference in index.php
2# One untranslated string
COLOUR_THEME_DESC

Great template

Thanks!

Didn't know that we have to include favicon :-[

I've added it and add a reference in templateDetails.xml
Had a typo with COLOUR_THEME_DESC which has been corrected

New zip file uploaded!

MuffinDCC · **Posted:** Sun Sep 23, 2007 8:56 pm

Glad you got it fixed

I really admire your design, it seems to me that it contrasts perfectly. Example being the darker shades of the header and background to the light, white areas of the mainbody which works very well in my opinion. The glossy, graphical module styling is an excellent design feature of this template. Module styling such as this is what I love to see in a design, just has that added definition. Also with the module design, the bottom shadows was a great extra that balances/completes the module themselves.

Everything seems to compensate each other in your design, some small elements that I would change but that is pure personal taste and nothing more.

Just a recommendation with your templateDetails.xml - Joomla 1.5 has a neat feature that allows you to use the syntax instead of listing all your files as . Therefore, you only need to use the tags for the root template files and images/ for the rest (using images/ as my example).

Definantly a thumbs up from me

Hi libaizhuo

On the demo site the font size switcher the large and middle size fonts are the same. I seem to remember that they were different at one point.

Keep up the good work, this is a good template. My kids love it!!

Hi libaizhuo

On my wish list would be suckerfish menus! Also can I align the top menu items to the left rather than the right.

Keep up the good work, this is a good template and I hope it makes the final 5. My kids love it!!

Sorry for duplicate posts...manage to quote the previous entry rather than edit it!!

Thanks very much indeed for taking so much time writing me feedbacks, I really appreciate that!

Good tip about the templateDetails.xml, I've updated the zip file again... It's really nice and neat this way. Cheers!

I realized the difference between large font and medium font is not obvious enough, so I've changed the css file to make the large font a bit larger

Thank you for pointing that out!

By suckerfish menu did you mean suckerfish menu for top menu or left menu? I'll develop it once I have some time, cheers.

Personally I'd like to see it on the top menu, but if it could work on the left menu as well that would be brilliant. I guess I could get it working eventually, as I managed to do that on my exisiting site, but this is not my area of expertise, and you could do a much better and professional job!!

RedEvo · **Posted:** Mon Sep 24, 2007 11:58 am

The template needs to work well on a standard install. I think this excludes things such as suckerfish. Might be wrong.
