This is video tutorial configure Home page

1.      Configure to display articles in category of Joomla & K2

In Joomla & K2 pages we used the following class suffixes:

To change module class-suffix you need go to Backend: Menu--> Main Menu--> Find & Open Menu Item you want to add module class suffix.In Ciao template you can find Menu Item Type: Category Blog(Joomla Category) and Categories(K2 Category). Then navigate to Page Display tab to change module class suffix on Page Class option:

Example: We change module class- suffix of Ciao Coffee which items are displayed on K2--> All Categories--> Ciao Coffee menu.

Below is the explanation for each class suffix:

 ciao-bg-brown: using this class suffix, module’s background will be brown color

Then in frontend it will be brown color as below:

 

 

If you want your background is different color, for example, blue, for item’s background in category Ciao Coffee, you just need to change class suffix: ciao-bg-blue

ciao-bg-blue: using this class suffix, you’ll have background color as blue color. This is also our default class suffix. When you download template and install it, the default color of items in K2 and Joomla pafe is blue.  

E.g.: Joomla-->Ciao Teas

 

 

To change the background of items in category Ciao Teas, go to menu Ciao Teas then change class-suffix. For example if we want to change the color to red, we’ll only have to change class suffix: ciao-bg-red

ciao-bg-red: using this class suffix your background will be red color

E.g.: Joomla-->Ciao Cake

 

 

·        

ciao-bg-purple: using this class suffix, your background will be purple color.

E.g.: category Ciao Books

 

  2. How to configure modules displaying at sidebar-2 position in Joomla& K2page

In these modules displaying at sidebar-2 position, we use these class suffixes:

  • bg-red

  • bg-yellow

  • bg-purple

  • bg-green

The detail of these class suffixes is described below:

  • bg-red: allows displaying background in red color

E.g.: module Recent Post has class-suffix: bg-red

Frontend

You can changecolor of background by changing class-suffix in module.E.g.: Module’s class suffix: yellow

  • bg-yellow:  allows displaying background in yellow color

E.g.: module Recent Post

Module class suffix: bg-yellow

  • Frontend

  • bg-purple: allows displaying background in purple.

E.g.: module Recent Post

Module class suffix:bg- purple

  • bg-green: allows displaying background in green color

E.g.: module Tag

Module class suffix:bg- green

  • Frontend

You can do the same with other modules:

                Module position: sidebar-2

Module Recent Comments
