Hi,

This is my first ever post in this forum, even though i have found help here many times before.

I have a fresh install of corporate 2, 2.0.8. I used the quickstart package and i haven't changed anything yet, but i can't get the image show module to change background image when i change styles in back end. Everything else (font color and the bar below the image show module) change. I previously had an older version of this template installed (ver. 2.0.4) on the same machine and that was working fine.

I have tried to delete cache client side and server side but nothing changes.

One thing i have noticed is that is that the red background image loaded is located in /templates/corporate2/images and not in /templates/corporate2/images/style1 as expected.
A copy of the red background is located in /style1 but that is not the file that gets loaded and displayed.

Any Ideas?


Regards

Hi

The easiest will be to replace file /images/header_red_bg.jpg with the propper color from /images/styleX/ folder with changing name.

Hi,

That is the quickfix i already use, but it doesn't help in getting the style switcher going again. The template will remain in that color i choose when i replace the image file. There must be something wrong in the code or file structure of the template, van it be fixed?

Hi

I believe this was addressed to our programmer and the fix should be already in the update area. If not than it will soon be there.

I have changed the images as suggested and also simply copied green style2 css file into style1 (red).

The problem is that the background color which is set in the css is not changing. On loading it is still red for a bit.

Any suggestion on what to change in which css file?

The website is temporarily online: http://mhtank.de

By the way, I really love that template. I am redoing my parents website and I have never been that quick with a project;-)
Love gavicks clean style with just the right amount of clean coded gimmicks that keep a website loading fast!

PS: You have a small bug in the new design of your website. Check "From our Forum" at the bottom. Text is overlapping.
And you still have the joomla favicons.

Hi

This is our fault. We apologize.
Please open style1.css file and find this line:

Code: Select all
.gk_is_wrapper-style1{background:transparent url('../images/style1/header_red_bg.jpg') no-repeat 0 0}
.gk_is_wrapper-style1 .gk_is_preloader{background:#ec3200 url('../images/style1/header_red_bg.jpg') no-repeat 0 0}

replace with
Code: Select all
.gk_is_wrapper-template { position:relative; background:transparent url('../images/header_red_bg.jpg') no-repeat 0 0; }
.gk_is_wrapper-template .gk_is_preloader {background:#ec3200 url('../images/style1/header_red_bg.jpg') no-repeat 0 0}


Basic change is replacing ".gk_is_wrapper-style1" with ".gk_is_wrapper-template".
You need to do the same on style2.css, style3.css and style4.css files.

This will be added on next update (2.0.9)

Meanwhile, i attach the files.
Download, unpack and replace files.
Important! Be sure to clear cache on your browser.
