Add a new style

I would like to add a new style based on style3 but with other colors.
I already copied the css- and imagemaps from style3 but that's not enough to make it available from the backend.
What else do I have to do to choose style4 from the backend ans are there any other files I have to copy from style3?

Hi,

First of all you have to add the option to the templateDetails.xml file:

Code: Select all

<field name="template_color" type="list" default="1" label="TPL_GK_LANG_TEMPLATE_COLOR" description="TPL_GK_LANG_TEMPLATE_COLOR_DESC">
   <option value="1">TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_1</option>
   <option value="2">TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_2</option>
   <option value="3">TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_3</option>
</field>

then you have to edit the styleswitcher (if you use it) in the layouts/blocks/footer.php:

Code: Select all

<div id="gkStyleArea">
    <a href="#" id="gkColor1"><?php echo JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_1'); ?></a>
    <a href="#" id="gkColor2"><?php echo JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_2'); ?></a>
    <a href="#" id="gkColor3"><?php echo JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_3'); ?></a>
</div>

and finally - style the #gkColor4 element in the template.css file (of course if you will use this option).

Please remember to create also:

css/typography/typography.iconset.style4.css
css/typography/typography.style4.css

files.

Works great, tnx.
Now, only TPL_GK_LANG_COLOR_4 has to be added but... in which file?

In the template language file

right.
But where is the templates languagefile?

In the languages/en-GB directory - look for en-GB.tpl_gk_restaurant.ini file.
