    • hi again,

      you will have to add the code:
      <img class="floatleft" alt="frontpage" src="images/stories/demo/frontpage/painttruck.jpg" width="300" height="255" />

      with your text editor switched off or with rokpad, otherwise the code may get stripped out by joomla's default editors.

    • I have followed your menu instructions to the letter and my menu is still coming out vertically. www.tcountry.ca/blog

      One thing I noticed is that I tried to change the position setting to 2 in the navigation position. The params.ini is writable until I try to do a save. Then is changes to unwritable even though I didn't change the permissions.

    • I have spent hours on this thing, what am I doing wrong?

      gator1120.hostgator.com/~lagrace/

      My color on the bottom part is off
      MAIN MENU is showing up behind the logo.
      and the rokstories are not showing up.

      I am sure I followed the instructions to a T, but maybe I am just tired...

      hi there,

      this is a known joomla bug which seems to appear on certain servers only.

      very often the changes actually do get saved, even if the params.ini says it is unwritable.
      worth to give this a try.

      if it does not work, you may try to enable your ftp layer in the joomla global configuration.

      if this doesn't help as well, then you can try to add some changes to ../administrator/components/com_templates/controller.php

      find below codes:
       
      // Try to make the params file unwriteable
      if (!$ftp['enabled'] && JPath::isOwner($file) && !JPath::setPermissions($file, '0555')) {
       
      and change to:
       
      // Try to make the params file unwriteable
      if (!$ftp['enabled'] && JPath::isOwner($file) && !JPath::setPermissions($file, '0755')) {

    • Although I got most of Grunge duplicated, I still have some small problems. Any help would be very appreciated. I have the following troubles:

      1) Grunge doesn't seem to change the font when I change it in the Template page. I would like to have the same font as in the demo page for the menus and content.

      2) The RokStories module seems to have problems loading. Only when you click on the arrow it shows the first article. But the rokstories picture on the frontpage still does not load.

      3) In IE 8 i got a Javasrcipt error corresponding with mootools

      4) Any other differences you see comparing with the demo :mrgreen:

      You can see the page at: http://www.schmugglerallianz.de

      Thanks a lot for any help!

    • Hello kate05

      Can you tell me how to move the position of the RokStories slide show?

      I would like to move it more to the top.

      Thanks
