Hi there
I have had a few support chats with Manh which have proven to be very useful.
I design and build Joomla sites and have done for 10 years. I usually build approx 15 sites a year and my work can be seen here: https://redelevencreative.com/index.php/portfolio
Up until now I was employing a BS4 template built for me by a good mate, Roberto Segura. It works fine and I edit module positions direct on index.php. However, I do feel it is dated and lacking areas like a good off-canvas menu, mega menu etc.
I am more of a designer than a developer and in the past a lot of Joomla devs have put me off going with a framework. However, I think they have moved on so much over the years and I really like what you’ve done. I think for me, the best approach would be T4 BS5 Blank…then I can adapt accordingly.
Before I take the leap though I have a few questions. I can post these individually in the forum if you prefer.
Again, many many thanks for building something amazing!
A lot of my sites are pretty small and I can predict maybe only made up a few different page styles. It looks like it could happen that I end up with maybe 2/3 template styles…but they could all be the same except for LAYOUT SETTINGS & MENU ASSIGNMENT…ie. everything else down the left column in T4 could be globally the same?
When I set a background image for the page and make the text white the off-canvas menu is white text on white background - is there a way of colouring up the off-canvas background (guess I could use a css class?)?
If I don’t have a site logo and instead use Site name and Slogan…how can I colour those please?
Is it possible to use SVG code for the logo?
In T4 BS5 Footer you are calling in 4 modules. Could that be a BLOCK with the same html as you would normally put in your custom module? What is the benefit of using a module as opposed to a block for this section please?
Is there anywhere I can see ALL of the T4 BS5 Blank module positions - like a demo with some content in each module position maybe?
Is it possible to specify em rather than px in your padding/margin settings?
Is it possible to get the headers (which contain the logo and menu) full width - ie to the far left and right of the screen?
On the off-canvas navigation, at the bottom, there is a list of social icons - where are they loading from please?
I see on some of your templates you are using movement with css classes such as t4b-animate fadeInRight - is that something I can use on T4 BS5 Blank - is there a set of classes?..or can I install this and if so how please in the T4 template? https://michalsnik.github.io/aos/
I really do appreciate any advice you can give me.
Kind regards
