Bug in Profilr Update 1.0.2?

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

Dear Anthony,
Thank you for updating the Profilr template enabling now to create up to 10 Panels. However, when I try to apply "module" in panels above 7-10 there is the problem to apply a appropriate model position, because positions for these panels do not exist (e.g. panel7-10 or background7-10). Do I have to create these positions by myself? How can I do it?

Best wishes,
Michael

Hi Michael,

You can just type the position into the box and it will work.

I will add the background positions for the next release but the panel positions don't actually exist in the templateDetails file, they are custom positions that have been used in the quickstart package. You can add a module to any position and then use that position name in the template settings so you aren't limited to panel7 panel8 etc

Regards,

Rob

Looking again, it seems that the background positions are optional as well so they can probably be removed from the xml file as all positions are essentially custom positions.

I'll check with Anthony.

Amazing! Now all bugs I know are fixed. Well done by a great team ;-) Maybe now it's time to optimize some design features? For example, I recognized that galleries and slideshows work perfectly for pictures in landscape mode. However, if one considers to add also images in portrait mode they do not really fit in the layout. The only workaround until now is to use only those portrait mode pictures that look still good after they've automatically cropped by the template. Do I have to open a ticket for this?
Anyway, overall I'm really satisfied with this nice template created by your team!

Cheers,
Michael

Ok Great news Michael.

Using images of mixed ratios is a bit of a design challenge actually.

It's hard to get portrait and lansdscape images fitting nicely in a gallery without some compromise. The design of this template doesn't really lend itself to using mixed image sizes.

You could edit portrait images directly and add a black background around the portrait image so it is centered in the viewport but our advice is to use similarly ratio'd images for display in this template.

Best of luck with the project.
