    Olympiad Page with Juxta

    Posted 14 years 3 months ago
    • Website URL : turkceolimpiyatlari.ca/ - turkisholympiad.ca

      Additional Extensions (Components, Modules, Plug ins): Flexi Pages, NextGen Gallery

      Custom Development:
      Wrote a random php function to rotate background images, There are 6 background images shown randomly. Mixed some default styles.

      Other Features:
      I will add a form plugin for contact us, cforms II

      Any specific areas of my site that I'd like feedback on:
      I developed the page on Mac, I d like to get feedback from different browsers and OS. For example rokstories isn't working properly for my FF but it is OK for windows FF and safari.

      Additional Comments:
      I am open to plugin suggestions, is there any better option for NextGen gallery? I don't like you need to click on the image to close image. There is no cross (close) sign while looking at single image.

    • Looking good overall :)

      On this link it's kind of funny:

      turkceolimpiyatlari.ca/about/turkish-language-test/

      "There are 50 questions in the Turkish Language Test; it consists of grammer, listening, reading and vocabulary sections."

    • This is great! Nice & clean, lots of information, but no clutter.

      May I ask if the random background image implementation was/is difficult to do? It really is a clever effect (and I love those kids peeking out from the sides!) and if it's not too complex, I'd like to do something similar on a festival site I'm starting to put together.

    • Juxta truly is a versatile template. The more time I spend looking at it, the more options I see.

      This template certainly worked well for the Turkish Olympiad. Nice job.

      Sue B, you'll notice posts to this item go back some months, and you're looking for some thoughts on the background now (so just in case Oguz doesn't get back to you). If you use your Developer Tools in Chrome, or FF, you'll see an image Zemin_04. This was substituted for the template background.

      Not difficult at all, and effective.

    • I agree about the versatility and I'm finding it fairly simple to modify etc, caminkingston.

      My request was more about the 'static' background, in that, when you scroll, the kids stay put - which makes it have that much more impact.

      I've been checking out some script at WP.org and various places, but I didn't want to reinvent the er, background :)

      cheers!

      When you do figure it out, please post it so we'll know. Thanks in advance.

    • Great looking site Oguz. I'd love to know how you added the background rotator, I'm trying to add one to my site but don't have any idea where to start. Would you care to share your secret?
