I am trying to do some very simple things but I am getting really confused. I went to the forums for JA Fagus and read the installtion part on configuring the template.

It says to change menu edit ja_fagus/ja_vars.php and edit line 39 for $ja_menutype=1 or what ever menu you want.

Wnen I open ja_vars.php on line 39 I have.

$ja_left = $this->countModules( ‘left’ );

and I dont even see $ja_menutype=

This never seems easy to me.

In your Templates/Ja Fagus/Ja vars.php

look for the following

# BEGIN: TEMPLATE CONFIGURATIONS ##########
####################################
#support extra color themes
$ja_color_themes = array(‘default’,’green’,’blue’); // You can add more color array if needed
$ja_header_images_wide = array (‘header1.jpg’,’header2.jpg’,’header3.jpg’,’header4.jpg’,’header5.jpg’);
$ja_header_images_narrow = array (‘header1-n.jpg’,’header2-n.jpg’,’header3-n.jpg’,’header4-n.jpg’,’header5-n.jpg’);
####################################
# Change the width of the template
$ja_width_default = ‘wide’; // ‘narrow’: 800×600; ‘wide’: 1024×768
# default color
$ja_color_default = ‘default’; //blank for default, else pick one of in extra color themes $ja_color_themes
#font size default
$ja_font_size_default = 3;
# Enable users option
$ja_tool = 6; // 0: 0: disable all; 1: Screen tool; 2: font tool; 3: screen + font; 4: color tool; 5: screen + color; 6: font + color; 7: all;
# Choose your prefer Menu Type
$ja_menutype = 2; // 1: Split Menu; 2: Son of Suckerfish Dropdown Menu; 3: Moomenu
# END: TEMPLATE CONFIGURATIONS ##########

Everyrthing you need is there I have coloured the menu for you.

Hope this helps 😉

Here is everything in my template/ja fagus/ja_vars.php. How can mine look so different than the one you have?

Wow all your edit details are missing…

if you have not made any changes to your template I would download the template again and replace the code from the new download with your existing one.

Ceck that the edit details are in the Ja vars.php cut/copy and paste over your

this is the start of mine

Well lets not do any of the stuff we have just said because this seems to be a 1.5 template issue

Your template is the 1.5 version and mine is not…so everything I have just tried to explain to you is gobbledegooke

Go to Extensions>Template Manager>Mark Ja-FAgus and press edit, there you get some options to edit the template.

Menalto do you think two user guides are required now?

[Menalto Friend MenaltoJoin date: May 2007Posts: 4736Downloads:0Uploads:43 Thanks: 2 Thanked: 531 times in 361 posts]

#239553

Well, many things is required here now to be honest. And a new userguide is one of thoose things.

Another guide would be great…but this may go beyond that…

When you switch to blue in the control panel– everything does change except the the main menu highlight links in position left. When you look at the css file, it just lists the default rust color throughout.

Even when you keep the 3 color option and switch between colors, it does not seem to effect the link highlight in that main menu.

It should automatically change, and definitely should change when you go to a one color template.

So the question is why won’t it change, and how to make it change…

Inquiring minds want to know.

To restate the problem:

JA Fagus for Joomla 1.5 does have a working splitmenu. Also, it only offers CSS, Moo, and Split as options. Split is the only one that does not work.

Alicia has posted a different problem about the color scheme options.
