Background images

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hi,

I can't seem to locate the background images for the lower two background images on the template. Can you please direct me in how to change them?

Thanks

Hi

I can't seem to view the site with those details

Inside the template settings > with the image if you click the pencil to the right of the row do you see an image in the row or container settings?

Hi

Thanks.

The site password works now. I can't go into the folders in the template settings. I can get to the template settings but there is no response when I click the images folder.

You can add an image to the container (I just include this for completeness )

Do you mean the images in these sections of the site?

2017 BWA - REFORMATION 500 PROGRAM

and

WISE WORDS ...

Yes, I think I am figuring it.

What is the optimal size for the images though?

This is always a hard question to answer as it depends on the subject of the photo e.g. abstract work better than say people

Also it is a trade off between image quality and file size

If an image is too small it will pixelate

It is a bit of trial and error really

I personally do use

kraken.io/web-interface

To compress image file size

Thanks. Is it possible to have a video where the Zentools2 Grid 1 is on the front page? Can this be done in the current Zentools setup?

With Grid1 do you mean to replace the entire module that is there at the moment?

Yes. I mean. Can I replace the module with simply publishing an article or another module that can display just a video? If so, module suggestions?

Hi Again,

Depends, a little where the video is coming from

If it is a youtube or vimeo clip you could embed the iframe

Are you familiar with using iframes in Joomla?

Cheers
