Hello again. I gave up trying to fix this problem before. But now I've just re-installed blankie on a fresh website - and I'm having exactly the same problems again.
1. How do I get rid of the line with logo+user3 ?
2. Which file (and path to the file) are the definitions for the layout design?
3. If I want to use my own logo, what is the filename for the logo and which folder is it in? And where are the template definitions for the logo (such as text, font, height, etc.)?
4. If I want to limit the height of a particular horizontal layout (e.g. logo+user3, or advert1+advert2) how do I do this? If the content of the modules exceed the height limit then I want the text either to be truncated (what's the setting for this?) or a vertical scroll bar to appear (how do I select this?).
Please list the files (and which folder to find them in) that need to be edited.
The new (modified) website I'm trying to design is
www.thailandmentor.com
Many thanks (again)
Gary
I've found some of the answers already:
1./2. In the file templates/hot_blankie/index.php there's a line to define $layoutdesign:
// template layout
$templateWidth = $this->params->get("templateWidth", "960");
$layoutdesign = $this->params->get("layoutdesign", "+row_style1+top1=7=0,top2=3=0,top3=2=0&
+top_menu+logo=2=0,user3=10=0&+row_style2+advert1=7=0,advert2=5=0&+row_style2+left=2=0,joom_content=5=0,right=5=0&+hot_map+user1=12=0&+row_style2+bottom1=4=0,bottom2=4=0,bottom3=4=0&+row_style3+copyright=6=0,bottom12=6=0");
I changed +top_menu+logo=2=0 to +top_menu=2=0 and then set Top Menu to no-menu in the template layout settings in the joomla administrator template editor.
BTW - there seems to be a small bug in the template editor. Even though I changed the template width to 1032, it's still 960 in the index.php file above. If I go back to the template editor, it's still 1032 - so there must be some other file where this setting is saved... (!)
