In my template configuration I chose Show Font Tools – Yes. They aren’t showing. Are they not included in the template? If not, what do I need to add and where do I add it.

Thanks

Ok if I have to choose just one of my 3 questions posted… I would consider this one the most important. Anyone know how to get the text tools to show on the site?

Maybe you have not changed your file permission for the params.ini to 755 or 777 for changing these. you should get an error when not, red text, or green text saying “file is writeable” above the admin area…When this does not work eithe, you can change it manually in the params.ini. When finished, chmod to lower aps again, not 777, at least 755, you know.

File is writeable. Am able to change everything else. I don’t think it’s written into the template file from what I can decipher of it.

In any JA Template the params.ini controls those aspects of the site. When you change something directly via an editor, the changes will apply too. Sometimes we have errors with some modules and so on, with parts of the site, when the folders of those or the files are not chmod to any higher access permission than usually planned. This is due to the server configurations, that vary from server to server in how they are configured.

It really isn’t written into the JA Cooper template. No reference to Font Tool in JA Cooper template index.php. NONE.

It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Anyone possibly have an answer for this?

For instance Teline II has this in the index.php in the body tag

fs<?php echo $tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_FONT);?>

And this further down in the header area…

<?php if ($tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_USER)) { ?>
<div id="ja-usertools">
<strong>Text size</strong><?php $tmpTools->genToolMenu($tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_USER)); ?>
</div>
<?php } ?>

Tried adding that to index.php in Cooper, but does not work. I am guessing because I have to do more than add that code. Problem is I don’t know what else I have to add or what files other things need to be added to. It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.</blockquote>

It is located, code wise, in the template_tools.php.

Can I have a hint where to find this file? A hint what to modify? It’s late 2am I’m tired been trying for hours and hours to figure this out. I am cranky and don’t want to play 20 questions anymore.

First the file location:

/templates/ja_cooper

File is called:

ja_templatetools_1.5.php

First of all, have you like I said, manually changed it in the params.ini in the same location before coding anything?

In that file, when no is chosen, the code should look like that:

logoType=image
logoText=JA <span class="template-name">Cooper</span>
sloganText=1st Feb JA Template
ja_font=3
ja_color=carbon
usertool_font=0
usertool_color=0
janews-dateformat=d M y
menutype=mainmenu
ja_menu=split

When enabled it should look like this:

logoType=image
logoText=JA <span class="template-name">Cooper</span>
sloganText=1st Feb JA Template
ja_font=3
ja_color=carbon
usertool_font=1
usertool_color=0
janews-dateformat=d M y
menutype=mainmenu
ja_menu=split

So, I made a try, I changed it in the admin to yes, showed if it was changed in this file to 1 and it was not, so this is a common thing, change it to 1 manually now.

The result is: No changes, it does not show up at all…sorry, I have the same issue here then!

To add template tools, you will have to move more than just one code snippet, also CSS style and so on…I thought this template has the same template chooser module like JA Quartz, but seems not to have such.

Problem was not permissions or params.ini, problem was that tool was not written into template as I said. Just needed a clue what to write.

Now I have to go figure out the css so it displays right…. but it works. Text gets big, gets small. That was very important for my site.

Was a chore to figure out what to do… which files to edit and what to edit, but looks really nice now and best of all it works! 😀

How can someone solve things, tell everyone that he solved it -BUT NOT SHARING THE SOLUTION?
