    • Hi
      I'm a newbie to RocketTheme Templates

      This question is about the Camber Template

      1) There is no mywidth.php in the feature folder.
      2) I don't know how many columns ther are in the Camber template. (I guess 6 - because there are maintop A, B, C, D, E and F)
      3) How do i change the width of the sidebar a and sidebar b (I use a 3 column layout)

    • 1. this thread is about changing the width of gantry templates in total.
      For example from 960px to 1200px. Do you want to do that?

      2. Nobody wrote that you find mywidth.ph in the fetaures folder! please read the first post of this thread. You can download it from that post. Once downloaded and placed in the features folder you should not change it unless you knoe what you are doing.

      3. Camber is based on 12 columns. You really really need to learn more about Gantry.

      wich leads to ...

      4. Read/look at the docs my friend:
      www.gantry-framework.org/documentation/joomla/configure/layouts

    • Just like to say a huge THANKYOU for coming up with this.
      Being able to download a free copy of quasar and try this mod swung the balance when choosing which template club to join.
      I would recommend putting a link to this on the gantry site or making it part of the core code...

    • Sorry if I have missed this, but there seems to be a width-changer for

      - 12column templates and Joomla 1.5
      - 12 column templates and joomla 1.6/7

      but is there a width changer for
      - 16 column templates and Joomla 1.7?

      Hello,

      thank you both for your work in making this available in various versions...but I was looking for the 16-column version for Joomla 1.7
      I have come across the others versions cited in this article, but not this particular one...

      In fact, I don't know whether it has actually been put together...If it hasn't, would it be possible to do so?

    • well David wrote how to do that for 12 columns in 1.5 and for 16 in 1.7.
      There's really not much left to do for you to do the 16 column version for 1.7.
      We can't really do everything for you. (I'm writing this on a sunday morning)

      David did the 12-column for 1.6/7, if anyone had done the 16 column for J1.7, I guess I would have found it by now...
      I am not a developer, a software engineer or anything, but I guess I'll have to give it a go...

      It's weird though that on a Sunday morning you took the time to read the topic and give this response (as if I had said that I wanted it "NOW" in the first place), but didn't have the time - and decided for the future you wouldn't have the time - to check a file made for either 12 column for J1.6 or 16 column for J15 and pinpoint any needed changes, which wouldn't just serve me (as it's not a template and project specific issue) but probably many others like me......

      Makes me think what kind of topic/question were you looking to respond to that Sunday morning...where's the module manager? how do I customize the poplogin's login and logout text?

      Moreover, it's "true" that if you provided that solution, you would have done "all" my work, that I am just waiting around for you to take care of everything, that the past 10 months of my subscription I have taken so much out of your time with my "endless" series of questions, that I have made full use of my subscription by using one Rockettheme 2009 template and one extension on a live site...
      I am asking that much of individual help I guess

      I do think it's one of those times and cases where not replying at all would be a better choice than leaving this kind of comment behind...really, not dealing with it, because of work load or boredom, is fine...you don't have to do it...but you also don't have to leave a dismissive comment like that either

    • heh I guess you are right ... sorry about that. I'll try to build that thing for 16 columns in 1.7.
      I guess that's for Syndicate right?

      Perhaps you can keep in mind that this widthchanger is a personal project wich originally was in the member-submissions-forum. Not sure why it has been move here. But its really a feature I did myself and shared it here. David was so nice to jump in.

      It's nothing official.
      Bit as I said I'll try to wrk something out.
