At this point it will be best to migrate to Joomla 3 as J2.5 will be obsolete by January 2015.

You can start by acquiring SP Upgrade extension to automate the migration. See http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... tion/15609

If the Seminar Manager extension in use is OSG Seminar Manager found at http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... rses/18600 , then there may be a migration application available.

Free templates can be a bane as the developer may not have taken the time to make it flawless. If you join one of the top template clubs, they may have free templates and those will be properly configured, just without the many bells and whistles, and in my opinion, are the best. Keep It Simple!
