Mighty templates: Social Network like facebook template Send Print
Monday, 15 March 2010

Status Done

Hello,

1- Are you planning to develop a template for social networks like Facebook one??

2- If NOT, I think we could find more Mighty Users interested in this besides of me

Maybe we can PAY the custom delopement as a group, all people that are interested in a social network template like facebook one?

99% of templates are overloaded and not designed to focus on users published articles, comments, activity etc..

Thanks!

I didn't expect it so soon!.

I have already installed it and it is faster and cleaner than Yoo Theme we were using.

I'll let you know all issues I detect asap.

 

Issue:

I will provide you links to check it, but comment box (without editor) and microblog box (in profile block) are not shown.

 

Thanks for this template and regards

Hello Carlos, The problem was related to Joomla assigned template, when you do install upgrade it just copied another and do not delete old, was not aware about this also. So to fix issue just turn off assigned menus and removed old template, than made the same assigns to new template and it worked, please try to check this once more and report back. Apologize for search module above, was not made override to it yet so for better appearance try to turn off the search button, for next versions this trouble will be fixed. Also for a while better set left width in pix not % there is also some deals with. That's seems all, any comments and suggestions would be very grateful, and thank you very much for your help! Best Regards!

Hello Carlos, See what you meant, the buttons looks different because developers not include standard classes here, think better idea would be make the option use mighty buttons or not, like we do have for checkboxes and radiobuttons, for sure will include it for next template upgrade. For now as solution you may try to turn black buttons by slight modification of MightyGear.js file which is located into ...(template root)/js/ directory. Just find out here line: if ($chk($$('input.button') || $chk($$('button'))) ) this.rounded(); and just remove it. Best Regards!

Hello Carlos,

Thank you for your comments, that's really appreciated.

1. The menus, it would be grate to have more extended formatted menus and more over we must to provide them, but sorry this hardly ever will included now, very probably for next versions, like redesign. But anyway nice idea, will think how it could be done in best way. For now you may try realize it like custom module variation.

2. Yes, as developers of Mighty components we much 100% support them into our templates, We will try to make couple Resources templates in Dominator's style in short time.

For ordering lines, probably I missed something but I could see, please could you give more instructions for best understanding.

3. Here I need provide some explanation, the gray buttons this is links with standard class .readon, black buttons this is links and button elements with class .button, this is also standard Joomla's class. All this views done with Javascript, so in new version which will gone shortly we will include settings to have or not such formatting.
3.1. Will be configurated to have .readon buttons like or not in next version
3.2. Will be fixed shortly soon
3.3.,3.4.,3.5. The same as 3.1. the configuration option is coming soon.

4. for tabs, in Dominator there is no deals with it, so the problem is related to tabbers plugins, please try to check configurations syntax and so on. Also again seems this trouble was solved as I was not able detect any issues, please correct if I am wrong.

Best Regards!

Hello Carlos,

 

Good point for menu, will for sure implement simular for our templates, as for images think you may try standard joomla's option for assign images to menu, but remember enable them into menu module configuration as well.

Unfortunately was not able to get images you mentioned, please if you may to follow them at email info-at-mightytemplate.com

Also the tempate with mentioned changes is already out, make it as new version 1.1 so you may as well try it.

Thank you for all your help and support, really really helpful!

Best Regards!

Dima, you are FAST.

I have seen new grey buttons and classical filters and ordering line.

So, the only things that are  in TO DOS are

> menu modules more formatted

> option to instead of buttons show text

 

One question, if we modify now CSS, and you upgrade dominator after, we will lose CSS, but we can just copy paste them after new Dominator is updated isn´t it??

Thanks Fernando Alonso :)

Hello Fernando,

 

Thank you for your comments and all help yet another time. Sorry for not instance reply here.
Yes the menu modules thing which must to be here, by the way made some formatting for tabs/sliders and shorty soon today later will upgrade template.

For option to have text instead buttons on read more, suppose this is already added as "MightyStyle read more" if I missed something please correct.

Yes, you are right, the custom added CSS will be lost in upgrade, so best way is backup it before and paste after in for example style css file.

Best Regards!

Hello Carlos,

I am sorry for not quick reply, so guess me not resiving Fernando any more :)
Thank you for all your posts, quess that little bit sooner the new dominator version will be out. For now you may do fix for own in follow ways:

1. Drop  down menu appear, this is due to settings of the mainmenu module, there is parameter 'Always show sub-menu Items', set it as yes. This should solve issue.

2. Gray buttons this is .readon classes, eg this is all read more buttons. They may be be as well turned off, but this will turn all .readon classes, so if you would like to not use it just on module, the better way would be using the custom module override, like we do have forexample here:
/templates/dominator/html/mod_poll, you may read more about cusom overriding on Joomla forum there is good topics here with all explanations.

3. Turned off black buttons, indeed, it is better to make it more native to Dominator style. As our designer idea this is black background and white buttons :) but anyhow you may customize it at template CSS file, for uncompressed one it is line: 57
input.button,input.submit,input.reset,button {
color: #ffffff;
padding: 0 9px;
text-decoration: none;
border: none;
}
you may change here color, background and other stuff

4. not quite sure where the issue with scrolling any menu at top as sub, please could you provide some specefic info that may helps, progably this is browser dependens or whatever?

The same not quite undersnad issue with groups and links, please can you clarify?

Best Regars!!

PS: While testing just make turn option wich discussed in 1. so submenus now works as expected, soon some tutorial will be added where everything will be cleared. Thank you for help!

Hello Carlos,

2. If you meant the

Noticias de la feria
Actividad
Mi actividad

links which is basically in one line and you supposed to make them in three? Or I missed here something? Sorry for not understanding.

5. Got what you meant, yea, it could be good to have this hover styling and yes for next version it will comes in standard. For a while I could suggest you follow trick:
near lines 154 - 169 of the uncompressed template CSS there is follow rules:
#navigation ul.menu li a,#navigation ul.menu .separator {
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 9pt;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
height: 40px;
padding: 0 15px;
background: none;
top: 0;
}

#navigation ul.menu li.active a,#navigation ul.menu li.active .separator
{
background: url(../images/nav-active.png) repeat-x 0 0;
margin-right: 2px;
}

modify them like:
#navigation ul.menu li a,#navigation ul.menu .separator {
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 9pt;
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
height: 40px;
padding: 0 15px;
background: none;
top: 0;
margin-right: 2px;
}
#navigation ul.menu li a:hover,#navigation ul.menu .separator:hover {
background: url(../images/nav-active.png) repeat-x 0 0;
}

#navigation ul.menu li.active a,#navigation ul.menu li.active .separator
{
background: url(../images/nav-active.png) repeat-x 0 0;
}

and now hovered menus will be darken, that's not perfect but for a while next version with script-CSS solution will appear you may use this.

5. There is issue with module index.php, to quick fix go to /templates/dominator/index.php, find out line around 121-125

<?php if ($this->countModules('breadcrumbs')):?>
<div id="breadcrumbs">
<jdoc:include type="module" name="breadcrumb" />
</div>

and change them to:

countModules('breadcrumb')):?>
<div id="breadcrumbs">
<jdoc:include type="module" name="breadcrumbs" />
</div>
<?php endif;?>

That's my fault and for next version it will be resolved, thank you for find out bug.

Best Regards!!

Hello,

This is what happens:

I can create modules in positions user1, user2 and user3 (content list)

But If create a new module also in user1, I get a fatal error.

 

Does this happens also in your Dominator test site?

 

Above I wrote a bible just to let you know how to check the problem in my project...

Thanks for your support!

Carlos
