Jomsocial as default / home page

I want my community to open on the Jomsocial frontpage when going to my root URL www.artcirclus.com

If I set it as Default page it looses the formatting that is has if it's not default. I tried to add the Frontpage suffix to the Menu ID in the template, but it does not make it better.

The way it should look is they way it is in Gavick demo when going to Jomsocial: https://demo.gavick.com/joomla25/university/index.php/jomsocial

The way it looks on my site: http://artcirclus.com/

When logging in and then going to http://artcirclus.com/ is now really looks funny. The top section is gone and the menus collide.

Please login with: test and gavick123

Is there suffix' I can add in the template to fix this or how I get this to look correct again - as in demo, but just with the Jomsocial as the Default page.

Thanks.

Hi

In our demo I can see a css code generated by template which is gone in Your site. Try add it manually:

Code: Select all
#gkContent, #gkPageContent {
    margin: 0 auto;
    max-width: 1240px;
}

Hi

I have added the code in the Custom CSS code field in advanced template settings and it did help some, but still does not look like the demo and when Jomsocial is not set as Default.

When Jomsocial is not set as default page it all looks fine.

I am still struggling getting Jomsocial set as default page using the University template. I hope someone has an idea how to solve this.
I have setup a duplicate site for testing purposes as I need to make other changes and additions to the main site.

Please go to http://www.arteefex.com/ to see the problem with Jomsocial as default page. The test user is active here as well:

Please login with: test and gavick123

I use the latest template and have made no changes to the css. Only added additional custom code in the advanced setting for the template:

.joms-select {
padding: 1px 5px !important;
}
.mfp-bg {
z-index: 99999 !importnt;
}

.mfp-wrap {
z-index: 100000 !important;
}

.joms-landing__action {
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) none repeat scroll 0 0;
}

.jomsocial-wrapper .jomsocial {
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) none repeat scroll 0 0;
padding: 0;
}

#gkContent, #gkPageContent {
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 1240px;
}

Hi

I need Your help. I'm comparing this and I think it looks the same:

http://www.arteefex.com/ and https://demo.gavick.com/joomla25/univer ... /jomsocial

- except for a background on top
Code: Select all
.cFrontpage .joms-landing__action {
    background: #f2f4f5 none repeat scroll 0 0;
}


please point me to what You want me to check.

Hi

Yes you're right, on the frontpage it looks almost like the demo except for more space on the top before the login module.

If you then click on any of the Jomsocial profile you will see this difference.

https://demo.gavick.com/joomla25/univer ... on/profile

http://www.arteefex.com/301-art-circlus/profile

Or open My Groups you get this: http://www.arteefex.com/301-art-circlus/groups

However do you then open the actual group, it looks corect, like the demo: http://www.arteefex.com/groups/viewgrou ... tographers

I've added the code you sent and it got the format back on the login module - perfect, thanks!

Thanks for helping out! :-)

Hi

Thanks - it did the trick for the profile page, but broke the "home" page http://arteefex.com/home

It's the header bg that breakes. I added another menu "work" which is similar to the "home" page, but without the header module. http://arteefex.com/work

In the template settings these Suffix:are entered for the "home" page:

frontpage bottom3-grey bottom4-grey bottom3-bar bottom4-fullwidth

I guess the frontpage Suffix brings the header module to the top edge and that's whats breaks when I enter the code you sent.

Hi, trying to follow along here as I am getting a similar squished menu item and such when I make the Jomsocial the default Home.

What was the final override.css that you used?

I love the edits that you made to your website.
