How to change Website Title

Ok, Just got my template up and running.
How do I change the name and logo on the top of the site from "League News Joomla Template" to my own website name.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks you joined to Gavick club recently.

first, some template configuration you will find there: http://www.gavick.com/documentation/joo ... on-joomla/

second, should be possible from template configuration --> http://www.gavick.com/documentation/joo ... -features/

third, please read our customization tips from here, they may help you in next steps: http://www.gavick.com/documentation/cat ... -template/

More about changing logo:
1) you can always replace our logo image with yours : templates/gk_league_news/images/style1/logo.png
//If you are using Style1//

or use this URL
templates/gk_league_news/images/style2/logo.png
//If you are using Style1//


By default we use this resolution for demo logo

height: 80px;
width: 170px;

So if you want to add bigger then that logo ... you have to override two lines of css.

About site title in browser title bar -->
1) Check global configuration settings
2) Check names written in Menu Manager for items.

Super
Thanks for your help Pawel

I suggest to use also this option from Joomla Global configuration

Ok Thanks very much for your help.
Could you suggest where I could find broad Instructions for using K2, I have no problems creating articles with Images, But I have major problems getting my articles to appear on the home page, and also sorting them into categories.

Many thanks

There is a big problem with K2 documentation ... there is no such a think, sure you can find few articles and movies on youtube - but I couldn't find more. All books about Joomla don't write about this extension more than one-two pages.

p.s.
Maybe I should think to write such a book or longer article for Net magazine. Who knows.

Probably that's why also some people use modules to show articles from K2 on home page rather than component view.

I think you are right Pawel, it is very hard to find documentation.

It takes days of trial and error to figure it out, I am only beginning to figure it out now.

Here is something you might be able to help with.

When I post a new news item to the "Latest News" section of my website (which is GK4 News Show) , it doesn't appear on the homepage for a couple of hours although it appears straight away in K2.

I have checked the time setting and thats ok
I have checked the publishing time/date and thats ok.

Any help, thanks

In NSP there is tab called "Data source" - there you will find helpful settings "Time offset" - this should help sometimes. /// click on image//

Thanks Pawel
I tried changing the time offset but this made no difference, but I tried changing the date of publishing under the "Author Publishing status" tab to a day previous to todays date and the article appeared straight away on my homepage.

I think this confirms that there seems to be a conflict between the time setting for K2 and the time setting for nsp.
Can we fix this as it is not practical for me to have to change the date created for each article I post?

Thanks again for your help

Hi

Sorry. I thought the post I've send You a link to is a detailed already:

modules\mod_news_pro_gk4\helper.php

You need to find:

Code: Select all

$this->config['time_offset'] = $params->get('time_offset', 0); // time offset for timezones problem

and replace it with:

Code: Select all

$this->config['time_offset'] = 24; // time offset for timezones problem

Please send me an FTP access and I'll make this change for You.

Ok thanks for your help
I seem to have it fixed now

Thanks

Hi

Great to hear that I think there is a second option for that in the forum to remove date relations with module at all and was going to propose it next, but this one is much much better
