Hello,

Love your templates, like, freaking love them :)

So much so went out and got a life time subscription!

Have installed one on http://www.americancandy.com.au, but alas, a plug in that I wanted to use on the site doesn't work...

see: http://americancandy.com.au/index.php/amazon

The plug in allows me to insert Amazon Categories and Products into this amazing theme...

However when I contact support on the forum them tell me that "your current joomla template isn't bootstrap compatible (or 100% compatible)" and that I should "contact a template developer to fix their style and layout (divs) errors".

With your professionalism in the area, I'm sure this wouldn't lie with you. Am I correct in this assumption?

Many thanks for any help you can provide...
Thanks
Ross

Our templates just don't use bootstrap so this styles are not included to avoid loading unnecessary CSS files. You can include bootstrap files to template files by using this tutorial >> http://www.perfect-web.co/blog/joomla/62-jquery-bootstrap-in-joomla-25

Thanks so much BKRZTUK

I've installed the plug in and have read the tutorial page.

Afraid, I haven't delved this far into adjusting template code before, always only from a design pov...

Would you please be able to tell me of which files in the template directory they are referring to when they talk about

Bootstrap JavaScript
Bootstrap CSS
IcoMoon
Bootstrap plugins


Thanks really appreciated...

If you want to add bootstrap to template you need to make changes only in template/index.php - you will find there declaration for jQuery and you need to copy this code there to include bootstrap.css and others.
