I am not as familiar right now with the “script path and interrelationships” in Teline III, so I have trouble finding these:

Welcome to Frontpage — found in the “head” of the page. I want to remove this “Welcome to Frontpage ” so that all that shows in the head of the browser page would be the “Name of the Site“, if the visitor enters the Homepage. For example, not the current default:

Joomlart : JA Teline III Sandbox v1.1 — Welcome to the Frontpage

but instead, just:

Joomlart : JA Teline III Sandbox v1.1

YOU ARE HERE: HOME This is related to the Breadcrumbs. Is there a way to remove this in the HomePage so that it only appears in the inner pages. This is redundant if not oxymoronic, in the Homepage.

Also, I do not want the term “YOU ARE HERE“, but I do not know yet what term to use. Where may I change this.

I wanted to change the location of these scripts:

Day and Date Script

“Update” script

Edit: I found the Module for Search

“Search module” — is this more a script like it was done in Teline II?

They do not seem to be modules, more like scripts??? Where are they located, (i.e., what files are they located in, if not modules?) I want to place the “Update” script for example at the very bottom, just below the “Designed by” and Joomla GPL statement”. What files do I have to modify to place them in the proper location.

I want to free the header also of the “Search module” and the Day and Date Script. I want to place the search as a simple link (not as a “module script”), elsewhere. Possibly the same right aligned position as the Day, Date, just below the “Magazine menu” position (this will be a new position.

Thanks, in advance.

You can find the you are here in templatesja_teline_iiilayoutsblocksmainnav.php file:

<div class="ja-breadcrums">
<strong>You are here:</strong> <jdoc:include type="module" name="breadcrumbs" />
</div>

The Update, Headlines and Day of the week can be found in: templatesja_teline_iiilayoutsblocksheader.php

You can put those things in the footer.php file i think you can find in the same folder.

I installed the Title Manager plugin i found on Joomla.org for showing the name of the site only.

Only for the Search script/module i don’t have a solution yet. It doesn’t look good when you get the results because JA News is still there. It’s also in the header.php file mentioned before. But i can look it up for you when i have some time again in the weekend.

To change the Page Title, follow the following steps:

1. Go to mainmenu (detaul menu) Under the Menus in Backend Administration page.
2. Home
3. Parameters (System)
5. Change the details as desire in the Page Title.

Hope this answer the above quated question.

That’s right, but he doesn’t want any page titles, he needs only the name of the website to show.

The breadcrums in Teline II shows only in the inner pages, articles, sections, categories, etc. but not in the Homepage because it is obvious that you are “Home” when you are in Homepage.

Thus, there must be a conditional script so that the breadcrums will not show in the Homepage. This is missing in the Teline III script.

It is just the update that I placed down the footer. I have not decided yet where to place the day-date. I used to placed it just below the Magazine menu together with a link to search, in a separate “new position”,

<em>@zipper 144958 wrote:</em><blockquote>I installed the Title Manager plugin i found on Joomla.org for showing the name of the site only.</blockquote>

Indeed, since I started using Joomla 1.5.x, I have been adding this. I don’t know why it is even a plugin. There should just be a hack somewhere in the header where the script for the “Page Tile” is just added in the “Head”.

This leaves the issue: Where is “Welcome to Frontpage“. Rather useless addition, as far as I am concerned.

As I noted, I found the “Search” script also in the header.php. I removed that. I plan to place a link to Search elsewhere.

Thanks again.

Thanks premg,

Indeed, as noted by zipper, if you install and activate the plugin “065_plugin_1.5_website_name-May2008.zip”, which is needed in any Joomla 1.5.x site, the name of the website appears in all pages. This used to be added simply as a script in the “head” of the index.php in Joomla 1.0.x.

If the aforementioned plugin is not installed in any Joomla 1.5.x, if you bookmark a site, in this case, the title of the bookmark will not be your “Website name”, but “Welcome to Frontpage”. How will you or your visitor know that it was indeed a specific webpage?

What I wanted removed is the useless “Welcome to FrontPage“. What the heck is that? If it had been OK, it was:

“Welcome to (Website Name)” based from the “Page Tile” as you designated during the installation, then it would have been more appropriate.

So, I still have to find where the text “Welcome to FrontPage” is located, and remove it.

Cornelio,

In Main Menu you find Home… go to Parameters (System), Page Title
In Magazine you find Home… go to Parameters (System), Page Title

Change the “Welcome to FrontPage” to what you like…

Hope that help

Ara

cgc0202;145008 So, I still have to find where the text “Welcome to FrontPage” is located, and remove it.

Go to Menu manager> Magazine menu> Home and under Parameters (System) change Page title to whatever you want.

Cornelio, putting so many questions and requests into one thread is a not a good idea.

Please make separate topics for each question as it makes it easier and less time consuming for people to assist you and also makes it easier for others to find the information they are looking for.

Thanks aratype and Scotty,

The detailed route path helped quite a bit. I just deleted the “Welcome to FrontPage”, together with the plugin mentioned above, it is now OK.

Point taken. I thought they were all pointing at the same location around the header. As it turned out, with the initial leads, as I examined the scripts further, I found the solutions to the other. It was much easier in the much simpler index.php of Teline II.

Anyway, most of the issues raised here are resolved, thanks to everyone. The only issue yet to be clarified is the breadcrumbs (apart from the “You are here” which I already deleted) is the removal of the “breadcrumbs” ((or for it not to appear) in the Homepage. So, I will place that as a separate thread.

Thanks to all who responded.

Marked as solved. As said by Scotty , “one thread per problem” makes it easier to stay on topic and follow the conversation.

Cornelio, avoid clicking “Require Help From Staff + Mod/Admin: ” if you do not intend to provide your site login info with it. Its easier for us to login and correct the problems and then give the explanation of steps taken.

and i would also like to request you to make a short tutorial series about teline as you seems to know much more about the same. That would be a boost to the JA Community especially for the Teline users.

Arvind,

I always provided a link to my Teline III Sandbox, just like above (provide below also(:

Joomlart: Teline III Sandbox v1.1

in all the posts I have so far posted, once the stable version of JA Teline III v1.1, came out.

Most of the questions I am asking right now do not require access to my own Admin page itself, since I have not yet changed anything that led to a question that deviated from the JA Teline III Demo page. However, I always provided the link to my Sandbox site (see above), or a more specific link to the issue, so that anyone who reads my post will be able to see what I am talking about.

I am familiar with Teline II. I am still getting familiar with Teline III. It is quite complex relative to Teline III, so I am starting to get used to it, right now.

As my questions are resolved or answered, I am happy to collaborate with someone who can create “visuals” — like Chris and I used to do in Teline II — to create Teline III tutorials intended for beginners. Chris, being English used to edit my initial write-ups, too.

Arvind, if you provide the photoshop visuals. Others are welcome to collaborate, too.

Cornelio
