Virtuemart/Joomla - way confused
www.randasresale.com
I want to edit the background colors of the main sections, I want to figure out why I need all this nonsensical newsflash stuff, I want to figure out how I can lay this out better (cuz it looks like a mess to me) while maintaining order. I've been browsing around the virtuemart and joomla forums all day and I'm not really getting very far, except when I'm playing around with it. I'm just afraid that I will screw it up and not be able to get it back. |

Re: Virtuemart/Joomla - way confused
I have a feeling it has something to do with these modules and their positions, because I'd like for the newsflashes to display a bit more also, instead of just the few lines that they do, I'd like them to display more.

If you follow the copyright link in the templates on PSU's demo you'll be able to find the sites that offer free templates . You can change the appearance, display order, etc. of the front page and different sections by clicking on the different items in the front page manager, section manager (the newsflashes are in the front page manager). If you go to Site>Template Manager you can edit the HTML and CSS of the different templates (select a template and then click the edit html button or edit CSS button)

Re: Virtuemart/Joomla - way confused
You can also turn off modules (like the newsflashes, etc) from the modules>site modules manager.

Re: Virtuemart/Joomla - way confused
I hope I can figure this out. By the way, do you know what this means and should I change something?
Following PHP Server Settings are not optimal for Security and it is recommended to change them: PHP register_globals setting is `ON` instead of `OFF` Please check the Official Joomla! Server Security post for more information. |
