I am using the Senecio template so I am posting this ‘dumb’ question here. I have read the ‘read me’ info above and also the document that I downloaded with the senecio template. It appears that maybe the Teline template was used as a base document to create this document? Sort of confusing to read and see Teline references but I am still following. Now for the question. I did not know that you could create a ‘user’ module with ad-hoc text! I am so excited about that. But now I am trying to style it and I am having problems. I am getting confused with the info contained under ‘Typography’ and the info contained under ‘Module styles and Icons’. I was able to successfully use the -default iconx logic with my user created module in the user 3 position. That is way cool. How do I use the effects like box-hilite? Would this only be a style that I apply in my wsiwig editor on the fly?

I have never really understood how the -modulestyle logic works but I’m inching along. Could someone refer me to a great tutorial that really breaks this down with clear examples (lots of them) ? Many thanks and thank you for this website! I am a satisfied member!

If you want to use the module “styling”, then you would have to enter this in the “module suffix” field ( when you click on a module to edit it. This is the only place you can apply the module styling to it.

Then again you can create a new module and input css, javascript and other “fun stuff” into it. Just remember to use the non-wysiwyg editor to input the html text. If you use a html editor when trying to add html/javascript code it will mess up the module. Not a problem, it will just not show the module as you want it to appear like.

Hope this did help you somewhat. I would also suggest to go to tutorials.joomlart.com to read more about what you can do in Joomla and with Joomlart templates. Also, there are a few good tutorials on Joomla out there as well. It is one brilliant system, once you get to know it a bit.
