1. How can I change Clarion's "FP RokGallery Feature" module to display 4 images instead of just 3? I can't edit the module because the page isn't loading properly for some reason. See image:

Please log in or register to see it.
2. How do I change the background box behind the Description for images in RokGallery. My site address is http://www.elimar.ca .
Right now we're using a shade of green for the overall template's accent color. Is it possible to change the color of just the Description box without affecting the accent color of the whole site? Also, is it possible to change the color of the Title text used in RokGallery?
Thanks!

Hello,
1) Looks like you addressed this first issue, correct? I am seeing 4 images in the slideshow.
2)In the /templates/rt_clarion/css/ directory create a file called rt_clarion-custom.css.
Add the following code to that file:
/*RokGallery Description Background*/body .rg-ss-caption {background-color: (yourcolor);}
/*RokGallery Title*/html body .rg-ss-title {color: (yourcolor);} - Kind regards,
Reggie

- No, the first issue still exists -- I am referring not to the large banners, but to the smaller thumbnails immediately below. Please advise.

I tried your instructions for changing the background color but it didn't work. How do I know that the template is calling this new CSS file?

Before we can go any further, you need to start by updating Joomla!, the Clarion template, and our extensions. I noticed, however, that allow_url_fopen is disabled, so you'll need to begin by enabling that setting. You have a couple options.
1. Speak with your hosting about enabling allow_url_fopen. Once they enable it, make your updates.
2. Create a php.ini file containing the line:
allow_url_fopen = 1
Now save this ini file in the "administrator" folder & try running your update. - Kind regards,
Reggie

I'll also note, when you update any of our extensions or templates, they will eliminate any core extension/template file changes. So, if you have made any custom changes to our template/extension files, you should manually update by using a Difference / Merge tool.
For more information, please see:
www.rockettheme.com/blog/coding/395-upda...-after-customisation
(Note: This tutorial can be applied to extensions updates as well.)
If no changes have been made to our template or extension files, please update via Joomla! Extension Manager and RokUpdater.

I sent a request to my hosting provider about modifying the php.ini file to allow for "allow_url_fopen"...
In the meantime, I have another question:
How can I remove the square with the template accent color that would have shown through the default logo (which I'm no longer using), located in the top left corner?
Thanks in advance for your help.
