Thanks for the reply, I changed wht you mentioned but if you look on this page http://strongmoverstampa.com/newstrong/index.php/joomla you will see that the menu is not centered and is off to the left. Also in the bottom some of the module content overlaps.

Thanks fo your help.

Hi incept,

Send me access on ftp and access in phpmyAdmin (or name sql, user name, password, host name) via my page. I will install for you the demo version, where everything is working correctly.

Hi Woo_Doo

Great template….I am having one small issue though. It seems as if the layout breaks on interior pages. I posted a link below for you to check out.

Thanks for your help.

Hi incept,

You need change style in style1.css
On line 13, so
background: url(../images/style1/main_reapet.png) repeat-y  center top !important;
Should be so
background: url(../images/style1/main_reapet.png) no-repeat  center top !important;

hi woo_doo,

i was install with quickstart (quickm) in www.bahteraministry.com, but i can see image scroller, and i try version 1.7, 1.6, 1.5 the same? please check out and help me. thank you.

Alex

Hi Alex,

What you mean β€œbut i can see image scroller”? I do not understand your question. All works is well on your demo.

This is a fantastic theme. Very professionally designed and developed. I’ve built sites for clients using Drupal and Wordpress several times, but this was the first BIG Joomla site I put together … Woo_Doo made my life A LOT easier with this theme. We tweaked the base theme a bit and played around with some of the positioning, but at the core of the site is this theme. Clean, polished, professional … my client couldn’t be happier! The client site is here.

Thanks a million for the great work, Woo Doo!

Hi hopperscott,

Thank you very much for your beautiful comment!

Hi! I have had trouble getting the theme to install as per your demo. I would like to do this and then go and customize. Currently I am partway through your documentation and putting in the correct settings. I am getting the following error….Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in ….../public_html/libraries/gantry/core/gantryplatform.class.php on line 104

Would you mind helping me out as to what could be the problem? I am installing into an already installed Joomla on BlueHost. Several of the menu items and pages that you advise to be customized are not already in place. Are you recommending these menu items be created or is there an assumption that some sample pages already are in place?

thanks for your help!

Hi ktreyn,

Please send me via my page, link to your site and access to the admin panel

Hi Woo_Doo,

Is 1.7 available ? Ik already installed your 1.6 theme. Maybe you can tell your userd the best way to upgrade tot 1.7 ?

Hi AceKng,

Yes, version 1.7 is available.

1. Update to version 1.7 Joomla!
2. Update Gantry Framework for version 1.7 Joomla!
3. Replace folder template via FTP

P.S. Before the beginning of any changes make a backup copy of a site and dump databases!

I noticed another strange permissions problem with my virgin quickstart install:

Yj-Piecemaker complains from the joomla admin interface Module Manager: Module Yj Piecemaker CANOT MOVE FILES . We have tried to move few images from /var/www/joomla/modules/mod_yj_piecemaker/images/ folder for your default setup but folder is not readable or writable. Please fix the folder permissions. Thank you! Copy failed Copy failed Your default setup is done! First 2 slides have their default values loaded.

Although the module appears to be setup correctly it does not display on the home page

In general directories are set with 755 and the files within are 644 which seems secure to me.

Images for the Yj Piecemaker are located in your-domain/images/yj_piecemaker

All rights to the files depend only on your hosting

I am developing a joomla 1.6 website with your nice template on a Turnkeylinux Joomla16 VM hosted locally on my laptop. I used FileZilla to sftp to the VM, delete all of the contents of /var/www/joomla directory and replace them with all of the contents of your 1.6/quickstart directory. Installation was easy, and I made a MySQL database using Turnkey’s Webmin before step 4, skipped ftp config, and installed sample data. Used filezilla to remove the installation directory and pow! got a great looking QuickM website!

However when I enter the admin backend and click on template manager to try and change the style and background colors of the wd_quickm_theme template I get this error: β€œ500 – An error has occurred. Unable to use given directory. Check file permissions.” The red label β€œMaster” is next to the wd_quickm_theme.

When I check permissions of /var/www/joomla/templates with filezilla the wd_quickm_theme permissions are the same as the other templates such as beez_20 which I can edit.

Any tips on this one?

PS: please do not email me directly with your answer. I would prefer that you answer publicly here so others also might benefit from your wisdom. Thanks!

Hi DrFunn,

To solve this problem, I need to see your SQL database and template files. Send me a link to your website, access to the admin panel and FTP access. And I will try to help.

I have been using this template for about a month now and I seem to be having problems with the Yj Piecemaker module. the first time I was having issues with it. Itwasn’t even working at all… I had paid someone on the outside to fix it and it was working… now all of a sudden it is working… but the space where the module is on the home page is staying on all my article pages, and any other page I have it link to off of the main page. without even showing the banners… i have tried shutting it on and off… shut it off to all pages and saved it.. turned it back on only the home page and saved it but it is still showing that big blank space… can you assist me?

Hi Tjshakan,

Please send me a request via my page

The YJ Piecemaker module from the script won’t work with Internet Explorer. IE users need to update their flash player, but there is nothing to tell users they need to update.

To fix this, go in /modules/mod_yj_piecemaker/tmpl/default/default.php

and change the div tags to this:

<div id="piecemaker"> <p>Please update your Flash Player</p> <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"> <img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" /> </a> </div>

Hi omidy2k,

Try to find the answer at a forum of the developer, I don’t carry out technical support of other developer.
http://www.youjoomla.com/joomla_support/yj-piecemaker/
If you have questions concerning a template, without problems, I will answer.

Hello, How do i turn off the font used in this template? and simply use text as article titles? I need this for both the menu as well as the article titles. I need it for SEO purposes.

Hi omidy2k,

Please send me a request via my page

It’s ok.. i figured it out. I removed the cufon script located in the template’s index.php and it’s working great now.

It is an error can arise at repeated installation of a database. Remove a database and create anew.
Or problem in System Requirements for Gantry.

It is desirable to create a database in advance. At installation to specify her. And press β€œInstall Sample Data”

Hi, hoping to purchase this theme, can you tell me when 1.7 is likely? within a week? Also, I intend to use right-to-left language as well, will I have an issue with fonts? for example Chinese or Arabic? cufon supported?

Hi Vyker,

No do not. But you can disable cufon and use Google font. I shall try to end of the month to release version 1.7
