Here is the instructions…
The configuration field use 2 format:
Format 1: [Masshead option=”com_name” view=”view_name” layout=”layout_name” task=”task_name” id=”id” title=”Title” ]Description here[/Masshead]
Format 2: [Masshead Itemid=”page_id_1,page_id_2,…” title=”Title” ]Description here[/Masshead]

Here is the sample code…
<blockquote>[Masshead Itemid=”238″ title=”Explore” background=”images/stories/masshead/mh-5.jpg”]View all featured of the template.[/Masshead]

[Masshead Itemid=”294″ title=”Joomla!” background=”images/stories/masshead/mh-1.jpg”]Content Management System[/Masshead]</blockquote>

How do I identify where to find the “238” & “294” in the new categories I have created?

Please explain the code sample in more detail so I can modify it and find the variables.

If the code looked something like this I could would know what to do

category_id=3&Itemid=508

that’s what the URL shows.

Thanks,

You just use the item ID 508. You get this from the menu ID.

Hope that helps

I want to have a different picture for each product category. So here are the identifiers that I can see.

category_id=3&Itemid=508

category_id=11&Itemid=508

category_id=2&Itemid=508

category_id=1&Itemid=508

508 would use the same image for all…

Thanks

508 is joomshopping and as far as I know you cannot change the picture for each category. There is another thread here in Tiris where someone else asked. Would be cool I admit.

Sorry!

Thinking about this and I haven’t tried, if you put categories into a sub menu under the shop menu then you would get an ID for that category. Whether it would only work when you clicked via the sub menu I don’t know.

You could try that and If that works would you post back so that I and others know please?

Merci!
