I’ve been trying to upgrade to JAT3 and Purity II forJoomla 2.5 but whatever I try (be it upgrade or re-install) I lose styling for modules:
– in ‘right’ the rounded-corner boxes are missing
– in all modules, the module title does not display and padding between module content and position boundary is lost
– the login form on the mega menu loses pading and the ‘create account’, ‘forgotten password’, forgotten username’ links have changed from white to blue.
When upgrading the plugin, the styling is lost at that point (i.e. before the template is upgraded). I’ve tried uninstalling both the old plugin and template and installing the new versions but the same error happens.
Please see the attached images showing the difference in styling between pre and post-upgrade.
I see the change you made to the Default layout – the modules titles in user1 thru’ user5 positions now show. However, there is an unwanted horizontal line after each module’s content, the default font size is larger than on the ‘live’ site, the login form on the main menu has no styling, and the modules in the ‘right’ position have no borders with rounded corners.

Your site missed “/templates/ja_purity_ii/html/modules.php” file. To resolve problem, I copied “modules.php” file from T3 base theme to that location, add “jaxhtml”, “jarounded” styles into blocks in “Default” layout in Template Manager of JA Purity II.
Thanks for your help Stork11. This begs a couple of questions:
– why was the modules.php file missing following a ‘clean’ install of the latest version of purity II
– why was it necessary to add ‘jaxhtml, ‘jarounded’ styles into default – should not the installation have done this?
– will other users encounter these problems, or should there be a fix in the Purity II installation files?
It’s not an issue of JA Purity. “xhtml”, “rounded” are position styles of core Joomla. “jaxhtml”, “jarounded” are the ones of T3 framework.
If user would like to use JA position styles, he/she needs to do a custom work. That’s copy “module.php” file to template folder as above, then edit the style in edit layout screen.
