Simplicity frontpage head

I'm just a new mem here so maybe this question will be asked again by me but I can find so I will ask here.
As the design of this theme, the Get Started Today button and its text input seem like no any function there. But the position is quite reasonable. Remove it from design is so shame. So I want to put there the search form which is already have in joomla framework. So I want to ask how to implement search form to this position?

So the frontpage header should have:
big foto
sometext
text-input [Search]

Thanks da team

Hi,
if you look at CusomHTML module published in header position you will find:

Code: Select all

<form class="gk-form">
<div><input type="email" /> <input type="submit" value="Get Started today!" /></div>
</form>


So you can try publish search module in header position. But one thing you need to do is override view for search and add class 'gk-form' to <form> tag as you can see above.

Code: Select all

<!--           This is Search Module -->
<form class="gk-form" action="/holiday/index.php/template/search" method="post">
<fieldset class="word">
<div>
<input type="text" name="searchword" value="" />
<input onclick="this.form.submit()" type="submit" value="Search" />
</div>
</fieldset>
</form>
<!--           This is Search Module -->


This is my code. Everything seem like cool. Except I want to put a placeholder (code as placeholder="sometext") for same looking with the demo "Email address...". But when I put placeholder to <input/>, after update the code, then placeholder disappear. How can I add this?

Sorry I can not edit the previous post. I would like to ask about frontpage video. As change size to tablet or mobile, it's so big for the screen. How can we make it responsible size by max-width + height auto?

Hello,

Any body help?

It looks that is some problem with light box from k2. Please go to /html and rename com_k2 foldr name for a moment and check if still is problem with article image. If issue still exist please try reinstall k2 component. Do backup before, just in case.

Hello,

I tried both way (rename + reinstall k2 2.6.6) but still not working.

Please try ask on K2 support forum community.

For other template, k2 sbox-window seem work well on mobile devices. So my question is can I copy k2 comp from other template (like magazine) to this template?

Hi KonradM,

After some trials, I'm assure that the problem cause by your theme. Not from K2.
1. For Magazine template, you still use K2 Comp 2.6.5 and Simplicity is 2.6.5 too. But Magazine work well for sbox window but not for Simplicity.
2. I tried to install quickstart Magazine and sbox-window in k2 article work well. After that, I installed simplicity template only (for install ready site). Then the results still same: sbox-window not work in k2 articles. Instead of open a lighbox, it go directly to cache folder (mobile/tablet version, desktop still work fine)

It should be a glad if you can fix these bugs for next upgrade of this template.

At the moment, I will disable the lightbox image in k2 article and also forget the video on frontpage too.

Hope soon will get your updates.

Many thanks.
