First of all: which Joomla version are you using? There's no problem using more than one menu in the same position. As well as there's no problem assigning these menu modules to certain pages. Using module sufixes you can style them differently, which can be a plus when it comes to designing an user interface. Look at this example: you have a site with four menu itens: home, products, services, contact. Products has two sub-menu itens: Product A, Product B. Services has three sub-menu itens: Service 1, Service 2, Service 3. You decide to create separate menus for products and services containing these sub-itens: menu-products and menu-services. From the menus you create the modules with a similar name mod-menu-products and mod-menu-services. Now you assign these modules only to the menu itens related. That means, mod-menu-products will only be visible when your visitor enter the products area of your site and visits either page of Product A or Product B. Same for mod-menu-services. If you have further questions, just ask. 2012/5/31 Janet Sullivan > Hmmm.....not sure I understand what you are telling me....can you > elaborate, or use an example? > I can send you the link to the site that I am building if that would > help.... > > I tried using different module positions for the various menus, but had > difficulty getting all the menus to show > in the the right place on the page...that's when I opted to put the menu > all in the same module position.

I just discovered I installed the plug-in version, but they have a module version which would allow positioning so that might solve the problem to get it flush-right.

I was easily able to remove a bunch of stuff from the back-end for the 'newbie' user without having to make any code changes. I also disabled some modules that cluttered up and could possibly confuse a newbie. I have one task that remains: I've been able to remove many things from the webpage for the 'newbie' user, but the EDIT for the 'newbie' profile still displays and is enabled. I would like to remove the EDIT option from the web page. I don't want the 'newbie' to change any of the settings for their profile. How could I best accomplish this? I have looked in the code for the Mission Control template, and I could put in a check if the user is not Super User then the EDIT would not appear, but I can't help wondering if there is a better way or if I have overlooked a way to not display the EDIT option? I could just assign the custom modified Mission Control template for the 'newbie user' and the default Joomla admin template for the Super User, but wanted to check on my approach here first. Thanks!

The Administrator would change their password if needed. Their e-mail address wouldn't change, and they would be registered by the Administrator. This would be for only one or two non-technical users at most, so there wouldn't be much for the Administrator to do past setting up their login to the back-end. A template override would be a good approach but it didn't look like this was available to do for this feature. But I'm new to the Mission Control template so I certainly could have missed something.

Message-ID: <4FDB7020.6020402@wolpow.com> Joomla is a great platform as we all know. It does not hurt to add another major Platform or two. The NYC Drupal Users Group Presents a free event (though it would be nice to donate something) DrupalCampNYC 11 - The Unconference Do you Drupal? Do you wonder if maybe you should? In keeping with a long-running Drupal NYC tradition, our next unconference (DCNYC11 for those keeping count) will take place on Saturday, June 23rd in its long-time home at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn! Registration for this event will be FREE, but we suggest a donation of $25.00 to help us to continue funding these types of camps in the future. What is an unconference? In an unconference, the event content is suggested and chosen by the actual attendees on the day of the event. First thing in the morning, we all gather to find out what everyone wants to talk about, set the schedule, then allocate the rooms that we have rented/reserved. There is usually a nice mix of talks covering a variety of skill levels and topical areas including development, theming, and business. Visit http://dcnyc11.eventbrite.com/ for full details and to register!

Message-ID: I'm making a simplified version of the Mission Control admin template by Rocket Theme for a newbie. It's a requirement. I need to make changes to the menu top of the page. When you go to the Article Manager: Articles Across the top right of the page is: New | Actions | Edit | Featured | Check In Below Article Manager: Articles there is: Articles | Categories | Featured Articles I need to remove Featured from the top right menu and Features Articles from the left side under Article Manager: Articles. As far as I have gotten is in index.php, line: 64 1.
2. displaySubMenu(); ?> 3.
If I remove the line of code for $mctrl->displaySubMenu();, none of the three menu items below display. But I don't know where these values are being set. Likewise, I don't know where $mctrl->displayToolbar() is being set for the top right either. I'd appreciate help with these two places. I'm new to the Mission Control template and until now, I've not had a reason to modify an admin template for Joomla. Thanks!

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I stand corrected. While that medtho didn't work for me with the EDIT of the Profile, it did work for Features! It removed it from display on the page and there is no link to Features. Excellent! Thanks! I should point out to anyone else interesting in doing this, that this isn't secure because the HTML code and javascript for this button is still available in the View Source. However, that isn't a concern for me since the newbie would be logging in from an .htaccess secured back-end. My main concern was to remove things do the newbie doesn't get very confused or mess up things. By the way, I did an override to remove other things from the page. But I guess this being part of core Joomla, it simply wasn't available for overrides.

The 2.5 versions are far more code heavy than 1.5. The Warp framework has added another layer to figure out. I am pulling my hair out trying to make a custom background work in Symphony. YooTheme says you can create a "styles" folder and override the CSS, but it doesn't work. As for the regular HTML overrides, like com_content and com_contact, I have noticed no or very little difference between the two. It is not a problem.

Some users that need to modify custom templates, might find it easier to avoid frameworks like this and build a template from the ground up.

That is what I done too. I got tried of spending time trying to work with commercial templates and two years ago created my own "minimal" Joomla template that borrows from the 960 grid system CSS framework and some code from Matt's Construct Framework. There is no javascript, Mootools, and jQuery, just a basic stripped down layout with about a dozen module positions and a Suckerfish CSS horizontal menu. Then depending on the project, I can add Mootools or jQuery menus if requested. I am currently updating my framework template with the Twitter Bootstrap framework, which has jQuery features, but they are very basic. Matt, do you know if the templates shipping with Joomla 3.0 with be based on Bootstrap? - - - Steve On Thu, Jun 21, 2012 at 5:23 PM, Chris French wrote: > I agree with Matt, Years ago I found the tempting frameworks very useful > but as i started to develop my own templates I found them very frustrating > to develop custom code into. > > I now always just use joomla native templating > > Chris > > > On Jun 21, 2012, at 1:57 PM, Matt Thomas wrote: > > One aspect worth noting, regarding frameworks, is that many of them were > originally created to make it easier for user's to modify and customize the > template through an administrative interface.

You can stop the sending of the registration email through the back-end with Joomla 2.5. Not sure if this option was available for 1.5 or not: http://learning.cloudaccess.net/knowledgebase-documents/98-joomla-functions/user-manager/228-how-to-select-the-new-user-account-activation-process.html There are 3 New User Account Activation options to choose from in the Users Configuration area. These include the following: - None - no activation is required and the user can log in immediately after registering. - Self - users will receive an email that offers instructions and a token that is needed to activate the account. - Admin - an administrator of your site approves the account. =+=+=+= If it's set to None, then the user won't get an e-mail. Self was the default. Admin might be an option, but I don't know if it sends the password through or not. The problem I see with using None, is that unless Captcha is used for registration the website might be left open to a 'bot' doing something nasty like registering a zillow bogus users. Hope this helps! David Roth On Fri, Jun 22, 2012 at 7:04 AM, Robert Rynkiewicz < brynk at joomlaconnections.com> wrote: > Dear NYPHP SIG: > > I have a client with Joomla CMS 1.5.X and Virtuemart.

I don't recall if there is a better way to do this in 1.5, but you can just edit that file, or consider using something like http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/languages/language-edition/13147.

"PHP Version >= 5.2.7No" It looks like it's complaining about the version PHP which is installed on that server. See if you can through find out the version of PHP being used through CPANEL or if you have shell access enter the command: php -v and see what version of PHP is being used. I think Joomla 2.5 requires PHP 5.3 or later.

A reboot of the server would not affect anything that was installed. Do you mean you reprovisoned the server? If you are using a cloud server and you did not make a new image, then you have wiped out any changes. You need to upgrade php. I suggest you just upload a php info to the server and run that. | | SW On 6/22/2012 9:51 AM, Kenny Berwager wrote: > Hello Everyone, > > I'm working on a new clients website and they had issues with their main domain which required a reboot of their server.

I was so focused on Joomla, I didn't consider that Akeeba might have a requirement of what version of PHP it was using. I'm not that familiar with Akeeba and thought perhaps that was the shared web hosting's panel. Anyway, to help solve your situation contact the web hosting service and see if that can upgrade the PHP on there to a later version. Hope this helps!

If you take " %s\n\nUsername: %s\nPassword: %s\n\n\n" (located in that file) and remove any of the "%s\n\n\n" variables. Joomla CMS will not send the email. It seems to just fail. I assume it is something to do with the coding and perhaps an array of values. At least when I tried it. Perhaps I will try again. Seems as if there is not much on this topic out on the Net yet I would think it is not new ground to be covered. Is this some kind of BIG secret that only money will loosen ones lips or fingers?

It looks a little TOO much for my Joomla knowledge, as I'm not a programmer. :-) -- Helvecio "Elvis" da Silva Rio de Janeiro - Brasil - helvecio.rj at gmail.com http://www.helvecio.com - http://blog.helvecio.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
