Hi guys,

Some questions about JA Purity III customization (Magazine display). I’ve already checked this forum but the previous answers wasn’t helpful to me.

1. How to display a custom HTML module above or below the "MORE NEWS" column?

2. How to display a full screen slideshow in Masthead position (or any position above the main content and below the navigation bar)?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Here is my solution for the first point:

1. Install the free version of Module Anywhere from No Number
2. Create your custom HTML module, save it and note the ID
3. In your template manager, open the file /html/com_content/category/magazine_featured.php
4. After the line 150, add this:

           {module xxx}
               <br />

5. Save and close

6. Refresh your frontend

   (where xxx is the ID of your module)

   In this case, your custom module will be displayed above the "MORE NEWS".
   To display it below the "MORE NEWS" section, insert your code after the line 162

   Enjoy!

Hi,

Thanks for your sharing.

For the masthead position, it belongs to the masthead block and in this block it shows the output content inside a container which is defined with a width value depending on the screen resolution. So if you want to show fully by default, you can open the associated file of this block: root/templates/purity_iii/tpls/blocks/masthead.php

<div class="page-masthead">
<?php if ($mast_title) : ?>
<div class="jumbotron jumbotron-primary">
    <div class="container">
        <h1><?php echo $mast_title ?></h1>
        <p><?php echo $mast_slogan ?></p>
    </div>
</div>
<?php endif ?>

<?php if ($this->countModules ($masthead_position)): ?>
    <jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php echo $masthead_position ?>" style="FeatureRow" />
<?php endif ?>
</div>

and remove the div tag with ‘container’ class

<div class="page-masthead">
<?php if ($mast_title) : ?>
<div class="jumbotron jumbotron-primary">

        <h1><?php echo $mast_title ?></h1>
        <p><?php echo $mast_slogan ?></p>

</div>
<?php endif ?>

<?php if ($this->countModules ($masthead_position)): ?>
    <jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php echo $masthead_position ?>" style="FeatureRow" />
<?php endif ?>
</div>

Hi,

Which 148px height are you mentioning? As I can see the slide on above page has 400px in height now.

The 148px height are with DJ ImageSlider (see the frontpage now).

As I can see that height is generated in DJ slider, could you check its backend settings and see there is setting for height there?

Or share the credentials of your site so I can take a look.

Hi,

It seems that you’re using Horizontal slideshow and set with 120px for height, is that ok now?
