OK, so my department decided hire a contractor to help with some website work and he decided to use Joomla because it’s supposed to be easy for editing content and etc, although IMO it would of just been easier to do the whole CSS/HTML crap. There’s like three of us on this project but I know enough CSS/HTML that it shouldn’t of had been a problem.
Now, the template itself as three different colors but the images and everything should be the same (again, aside from color differences). Isn’t there a way to change how the template looks like in Joomla when browsing under a "category" of the menu? Continue reading Ugh :wtf: halp joomla→
I bought a domain a couple of months ago. I thought it would be a cool name for a vaporizer store. Vapire.com . no website there, don;t bother.
fast forward to Monday of this week and some guy is trying to buy the domain from me. Out of the blue he makes an offer of 1k. I look up the guy and he owns a change of vaporizer stores on the east coast, including one in manhattan. Their current domain name is horrible.
How much would you counter offer with? or would you just take the 1k?
I’m going to be doing a site for a friend. He has a cover band that plays locally, so he wanted a website setup. I tried to push him in the myspace for artists direction, but he says he is too old and his peers are not the myspace generation. So, I’m going to do it in wordpress and teach him about wordpress, so he can update it with out my help.
Anyway, are there any good themes for artists or anything? He basically wants an about page, updates, events, mp3 player on teh side bar. I know I’ll ahve to customize whatever I decide to go with, but was just looking for a good base to start with.
I know basic PHP (enough to do database driven sites, barely), but have only worked inside existing CMS’s for years.. Drupal, WordPress, etc..
Now i’m getting LOTS of requests from a certain niche market to make their sites, but Drupal etc is overkill.. so I want to make my own little system..
So, I have different elements on the navigation menu selected depending on what page a visitor is on. For example, on the home page, the nav looks like this:
but on the Try it free page, it should look like this:
i’m using CSS to do the selected effect.
However, I want to have a common header.php file across all my pages; how do I automate what navigation element is selected based on what page the user is on with one common header, without having to manually change it for each page? Continue reading How do I automate what’s selected on my navbar?→
