Virtual template hack?

I would like to use the CSS for the layout of the categories and page displays from bike store in Game news.

i do not want all the features of the template to change ie. I want the game new menu and background just the css of the page to show the nice page content display

I have found the bike store vm css file in bike store but I am not sure were to put it in order to change the display in game news

please can you advise.

thanks

Hi,

First of all please specify which category layout do you want to move? The Joomla! com_content category, the K2 category or the VirtueMart category?

hello

i would like the page which looks like this one
...http://demo.gavick.com/joomla16/jun2012 ... ult-layout

and

http://demo.gavick.com/joomla16/jun2012 ... ke-helmets

I have assumed that they are virual mart category and item views.

I have installed gknews module on the front page and made a menu item, I configured the GK news to have the id of the menu item and to take content from virtual mart categories view.

I uploaded the vm css form bike store to the css folder of the game news template but it did not do anything I can see.

This is page with gk module pulling content from vm into the front page

the module is called
we research and source innovatice rescources

the menu item STORE takes the font page from the VM

thnak you for your help.

Sorry but there is no styling like this for the News Show Pro module - these styles was prepared only for the categories view in the VirtueMart and implementing it in the NSP module needs a code created from scratch.

In general styling for the NSP module is placed in the gk.stuff.css file.

Hello

thats not a problem

I only used gk new instead of vm as I guessed this was the display means- as your gk module states its works with VM.


I can use the VM categories view instead as a display means. So in this case if you can tell me were to put the vm css style sheet within the site directory or what else I need to do that woudl be helpfu;

So I am wanting to apply the vm styles from bikestore to the vm styles in new game

thanks !

In the layouts/head.php file you should add line:

Code: Select all

$this->API->addCSS($this->API->URLtemplate() . '/css/vm.css');

Then of course you should move the vm.css file to the GameNews css/ directory. Additionally please copy from bikestore the html/com_virtuemart/ directory.

Thank you that worked well:-)

Can you advise?
Also I would like to match the font to the template for the headings of the cats and products.

Thank you!

Very strange - in this case I can only recommend changing the padding for #gkPage element from:

Code: Select all

padding: 30px;

to:

Code: Select all

padding: 30px 30px 60px 30px;

hello

were do I find this?
path?

thanks

The #gkPage selector is placed in the css/template.css file in the template directory.
