Rocket Launcher Install

  • Rocket Launcher Install

    • Ok, I downloaded the Modulus Rocket Launcher theme and did a new install just like instructions said.
      Activated the theme but there was NO demo content.
      Is there a sample Preset Configured template that a new Rocket / Grantry user can uses to get started?

      Thanks,
      Randal

      Hi
      and welcome to the forums

      Okay lets start from the beginning so we're on the same page when describing things.
      For Joomla 2.5.x and 3.0.x we offer 3 installation packages:
      1. RocketLauncher which contains:
      • the latest Joomla core installation
      • the template itself
      • a mix of Rockettheme extensions
      • the Gantry framework which is like the Control Panel for the template.
      Don't confuse the Gantry framework which is for our Joomla templates, with the actual Gantry template.
      This package needs an empty folder on your server and you will get your Joomla core installed, the template and the Gantry framework. During installation choosing to install "Sample Data" will make the installed site look like the demo. However with our newer templates the "Sample Data" step is SKIPPED as it's automatically done for you.

      2. Bundle
      • the template
      • the Gantry framework
      This package is used when there is a previous Joomla installation with a non-Rockettheme template installed. After installation you have the required template and the Gantry framework. No "Sample Data" is offered as your Database already contains site content information. There are no extensions offered with this package since they have to be installed in folders outside of the Rockettheme template folder.

      3. Template Standalone
      • which is the template itself.
      This package is used when there is a previous Joomla installation with a Rockettheme template installed. Since Gantry would have been previously installed, it's only required to install the template (although upgrading to the latest Gantry is highly recommended). Again no "Sample Data" is offered as your Database already contains site content information and the same situation for extensions as the "Bundle".

      So of 1), 2) or 3) which have you installed?
