Title: how do they get that 'look'?
Post by: j0seGZ on December 06, 2007, 04:04:32 AM

hi all,

i just uploaded the imagazine extension and installed on a default joomla 1 template.

i'm half way through the guide but my front page looks nothing like one of the sample mags.

i'm just wondering: do i need to install a nice template regardless, or can i use the component's settings to manage the layout and colours?

thanks all
:)

Hi j0seGZ,
Edit your issues and try changing layouts and styles from tab design.
I suggest you to read this:

Layouts (http://www.ijoomla.com/ijoomla-magazine/version-2.0/layouts/)
Styles (http://www.ijoomla.com/ijoomla-magazine/version-2.0/styles/)

Regards,

Hi similar question here. I want something that in the end looks like spannered.org - so sat vegetarian.net and onlinedatingsites.info as the example sites would be close enough.

Any ideas?

thank you

i appreciate those replies and i will read through those tutorials - i'm just a little confused about selecting different styles, esp since i don't know what each looks like

the look i was after is simply the one in the yatch example (featured site)

if anybody has any idea of the layout number and any other info i would be very grateful - but thanks anyway for the replies
