Multiple Layouts Setting
I. Default Layouts
JA Medicare comes with various types of layout that definitely benefits any business site. We don't use any 3rd party extension to work out these layouts, instead we believe in the power of Joomla core - Joomla com_content to come up with these.
II. Build up your own page
To assign a layout to a certain page, please follow our instruction below.
Step 1: Clone the default style
When you install JA Medicare template, there is only one style: the default style. However, you can create an unlimited number of different styles for your template as needed.
Why do you need to create a new style?
To have multiple layouts on your site, you need to create multiple styles. Each of these styles will be assigned to one layout.
So what is the difference between template and template style? - Check this out
To create a new style in ja_medicare, open the template manager panel, select ja_medicare - Default style then hit the Duplicate button.
On the demo site, we have already duplicated a number of styles for different layouts.
Step 2: Assign layout to the newly created style
Open the new style then select the respective layout that you want to assign to.
Now open the menu item that you have assigned to the newly created style to configure it, you should be selecting the correct menu type for it.
Matching layout with menu type:
Please note that each layout will go with its own menu type only, so please make sure you select the correct menu type for your layout.
Page | Layout | Menu type | Template Stype |
---|---|---|---|
Home | features-intro-1 | Featured Articles | ja_medicare - Features Intro |

Step 3: Assign style to each menu item
This is called "style override". The menu item that is assigned to a specific style will get that style overrided the default style.
There are 2 ways to assign style to menu items: in the style back-end setting or in the setting panel of menu item.
#1: In the style back-end setting

Get typography displayed on your site
JA Medicare provides a variety of typo on hand that will absolutely save you time. These typo do not only make your content look neatly done, but also go well with the theme scheme. We have put all the typos used in JA Medicare onto the typo page (which are located in under the Typography menu item).
Note:
JA Medicare is built on the latest version of T3 Framework which integrates Bootstrap 3 at core, hence, JA Medicare does support all Bootstrap 3's typo.
Step 1: Get the typo markup
There are 3 ways you can quickly get the typo markup from:
#1: Using Firebug
#2: Using quickstart package
We provide a Quickstart package, which includes the sample data that will help you replicating the Medicare demo as is for your site. Once you successfully install the site, you can easily get the typo's markup from the articles and custom HTML module.
#3: Using demo builder
Once you successfully build a Demo using Demo Builder which we have shown earlier in the Download and Installation section, you can easily copy the typo markup from the articles and custom HTML directly from the back-end.
Step 2: Add markup of the typo to your content
You can add the typo markup to the article's content field or custom HTML module.
Turn off editor:
Please make sure you turn the Editor off if you are going to add HTML code to your article content. To turn off, please navigate to Sytem >> Global confoguration, select Editor - None in the field Default editor.
Step 3: Get the typo displayed on the front-page
Create a menu, assign to the article we added the typo markup to.

Recommendation
The above userguide should help one in replicating the Demo site settings for the template and extension on their site.
Recommended :
If you are new or are confused, we recommend installing Quickstart on your localhost and use it as reference for the configurations. This is the best way to work with any template. Links to all the resources are provided above. We suggest you to carefully go over those in order to take the maximum advantage of our products.
Support :
Please raise your support queries in the forum and make sure you follow the support guidelines. We would need to spend more time to get back to you, in case the support guidelines are not followed.
