Layout Template

Hi,

So I'm pretty new to joomla, but finding my way around pretty well using templates. I just bought MC Pro, by problem is that the album format used in the demo is not a template in the component, I'm not sure how to get it as organized as you as CSS is not my forte. Would you be able to send me the CSS you used for the demo so I can tweak colors, styles etc.. but keep a similar layout?

Thanks!

    the css properties will have to be setted by you.. ours ar in several different css files. but you'll find it easy :) just install the new layout and everything will look much better :)

    best,

    I installed the new layout (like the demo) but the comment section is much larger than 50% which is deform the entire page.
    Can you tell me on which page I can fix it?

    components/com_muscol/assets/comments.css

    there you'll find CSS styles for comments. you need to decrease the size of the textarea for comments (line 82 approx)

    Hi Germi,

    I installed the demo layout by replacing the default_album.php with the default.php (Renamed it to default_album.php, as well as without), and I get a page 500 error; with SEF on or off in case that had effects on it.

    I am trying to reproduce the demo page, but the closest setting that I see is the album view, that does not give me the search form, although it does give me the search bar. I checked the setting in the menu for the component and (the global one), and the setting for the search form is set to true. So I don't know why it does not show.

    I am also considering to use a component loader for module position, and then load those modules within an article with module loader. Not sure if the double wrapping would work.

    If you have any suggestion in this regard, I appreciate it. Thanks.

    The 500 page error was due to missing default.php file, that is different than the default_album.php. Both in place, I still don't see a search form. I'll try to revert back, as I have to fix CSS styling to get it back to what it was.

    On other points, if you can let me know possible paths, I appreciate it. Thanks.

    let's see: what demo layout you installed?

    you need to replace DEFAULT.php file, NOT default_album.php. on folfer /views/albums/tmpl/

    Yes, thanks Germi. I did put both in the directory, but still no search form. There was some text on the side that needed css styling. So I reverted back as my main interest was to get the search form with other modules.

    Is there a quick way to put the search form as a plug-in in an article? That way I can put other modules next to it. I have seen some inclusion extensions in the JED, Not sure if they are useful here. I might try them.
