Module Positions

This template has support for 22 module positions. All module positions are collapsible. If no modules are published on some module positions, those module positions will automatically collapse.

Reflection Effect

We integrated reflection script with this template. So, you can add reflection to your images without editing them in Photoshop.

Beside that, you have full control over the reflection height and opacity.

How to add reflection effect to the picture

Add class="reflect" to any image you'd like to have reflection effect, and you are done!

To control the effect's height, use class="reflect rheight25". In this case, height of the reflection will be 25% of the image height. You can also, control opacity of the reflection. Use class="reflect ropacity60" and opacity will be set to 60%. You can also combine height and opacity, in example class="reflect rheight25 ropacity60".

<img class="reflect ropacity60 rheight25" src="images/stories/demo/reflection.jpg" alt="reflection effect">

SEO Friendly

You don't need a nice website if Google can't index it and position it higher in search results.

Even SEO beginners know that H1 and H2 tags are important and that Google spiders look for them when indexing your page. Joomla itself doesn't put headings in H1 and H2. With this template, it does!

This feature is automatically enabled in the template. You can check HTML code of the demo home page. You will see that big heading is in <H1> tag, while sub-heading is in <H2> tag. Without this template, these headings are in default componentheading and contentheading Joomla classes. Important note is that Joomla core files are NOT hacked, so you won't have any problems with upgrading, when new version of Joomla is available.

Hot Menu

This template has a fast-loading jQuery based top menu with nested sub-menus. Sub-menu opens with a nice animation effect. Core Joomla files are not hacked. Module position User3 is reserved for the top menu. Please type "nav" in Menu Tag ID. Menu type should be set to "list".

If you like classic vertical drop-down menu, instead of horizontal, please type "nav2" in Menu Tag ID.

The vertical menu placed to the left side column here is a classic static Joomla menu with support for sub-menu items. You don't have to change default menu parameters for this menu. Menu type should be set to "list". You don't need to type anything in Menu Tag ID, Menu Class Suffix or Module Class Suffix fields.

This information is not important if you are installing template using our HOT Start package. In this case, all parameters are set.

The top menu acts as a horizontal menu with submenu displayed below it, also in horizontal layout. Only one sublevel is allowed.
