I am fairly new to Joomla and in the process of setting up our site – I have decided not to have a logo at the top of every page and instead use the slideshow to incorporate my logo . Firstly I need to know how to exclude the logo from every page.
Secondly my home page slide show is 690 x 250px in size and the slideshow that I wish to use on all the other pages is only 690 x 161px. The problem I have is the space on all the other pages is too big for the smaller slideshow meaning that there is a big gap between the smaller slide show and the content below – I need to know how to close this gap – do I need to create a new module position to achieve this and if so how?

Thanks

Please find below the steps to get the logo and slideshow customized:

For the issue #1: open the file: templates/ja_helio/index.php file and remove the following code:
[PHP]
<!– BEGIN: HEADER –>

<div id=”ja-headerwrap”>

<div id=”ja-header” class=”clearfix”>

<?php

$siteName = $tmpTools->sitename();

if ($tmpTools->getParam(‘logoType’)==’image’) { ?>

<h1 class=”logo”>

<a href=”index.php” title=”<?php echo $siteName; ?>”><span><?php echo $siteName; ?></span></a>

</h1>

<?php } else {

$logoText = (trim($tmpTools->getParam(‘logoText’))==”) ? $config->sitename : $tmpTools->getParam(‘logoText’);

$sloganText = (trim($tmpTools->getParam(‘sloganText’))==”) ? JText::_(‘SITE SLOGAN’) : $tmpTools->getParam(‘sloganText’); ?>

<h1 class=”logo-text”>

<a href=”index.php” title=”<?php echo $siteName; ?>”><span><?php echo $logoText; ?></span></a>

</h1>

<p class=”site-slogan”><?php echo $sloganText;?></p>

<?php } ?>

<?php if ($this->countModules(‘top’)) { ?>

<div id=”ja-login”>

<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”top” style=”raw” />

</div>

<?php } ?>

</div>

</div>

<!– END: HEADER –>
[/PHP]

For the issue #2: create 2 slideshow modules,
– one with dimension 690 x 250px: assign this module to show in Homepage only by selectting home menu in the menu assignment parameter (Click on module title to access this setting panel)
– other with dimension 690 x 216px: select all menu other than “home” in the menu assignment parameter

Then, open the file: templates/ja_helio/css/template.css and find codes:

#ja-topsl {
color: #FFFFFF;
height: 250px;
margin-bottom: 25px;
}

replace with:

#ja-topsl {
color: #FFFFFF;

margin-bottom: 25px;
}
