Understanding Quickstart Build.r Demo + building a 'stack' webpage : questions 6 & 7

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

Hi Paul,

here comes the final round of my questions about 'stack':

6) what are the names of the different categories which have been used in the 'stacked' example on your site ?

7) Should I create a stacked webpage by myself, would it be really required to create a category, what if i do away with that? and a new Menu ?

(I want to have another Background Image than the one on the previous page with the Gif Animation Background >> so I would need to create a new Category, and a NEW Menu ? Right? With a New Style Template ?? How to find the Module Container with 'stack position' in the Style Designer when choosing a new Style Template for my webpage with 'stack' ?)

Hopes this clarifies a bit..

Regards,
Nicole

Hi Nicole,

Joomla works through the use of menu links

Modules and templates are assigned to these menu links

With any site it is best working via

1. Article Categories
2. Articles
3. Menus
4. templates
5. module creation

A quickstart is a demo site so it works best for your individual site if you rename the categories and menu links to fit your sites content

You do also need to delete the alias field if renaming links / categories

These fields will automatically repopulate with the next link content - the alias fields are used in the website url for the webpage
