Hi All,

I’m a newbie at Joomla and after playing around with the online JoomlArt Demos here I am surprised to see that they implement a menu system that allows linking to a new page with a different layout than the frontpage (?). How is that done ? So that a new layout can be defined for an article (different side menu, module positions etc.).

And I was under the impression that the standard menu system allowed a link to a Content section then Content Item, but the menu system on the online Demos (and breadcrumbs) show more levels (more than 2) than I thought was possible ?

Any help in clearing that up for me would be greatly received.

Thanks 🙂

D.

Yeah, you can assign a page to an individual template. This means that you can have multi template for a joomla site.
We use our coded tools to change color and font size for the template. You can see the tool is a bottom right icon at Utahia demo
