Some of you might have seen session errors. Everything is fine now. If you have trouble please advise.

you might need for it. And there is plenty of them. But since recent Microsoft website ie6countdown.com came out where they bash their own product and urge everyone to update, it is time for us to simply play along. We gave our best shoot and it is time to move on.

It is time for us to advise our customers to stop supporting one of the worst browsers ever made. It is time for all our developer club members to advise their customers to click on a upgrade button.

All our templates have the IE6 upgrade notice especially YJSimpleGridbased ones. So please turn it on in your template settings  and advise your visitors to upgrade. Understand that we will not cut all existing patches for IE6, but rather just not add new ones. All our templates have ifie6 options and ifie6 css files. You are more than welcome to still use them.

But from today's date we will not have any special hacks for IE6 and we will not add any new ones for all our future products.

We all went crazy when Joomla was going from 1.0 to 1.5 to 1.6. Everyone was upgrading without thinking twice about it. So why not push the IE6 upgrade? We all know what type of product it is , and we all know that there is so many better options like Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome.  You still want to stick with IE , fine, get  IE8 or IE9. It is compliant and has none of the issues like IE6.  

or you can simply use the edit HTML in your template manager.  

Now you see a bunch of code and lines that you might not understand but here is where every web designer or web admin should start.  Learn what  tags are and how you can use them http://www.w3schools.com/ .

Lets start coding:

You need new module position let say under your top menu . Many coders use notes while coding , you can see example here at Youjoomla . Here is a partial code from our Younews index.php

<!--top menu-->
<div id="top_menu">
    <div id="horiznav">
        <?php mosShowListMenu($menu_name); ?>
    </div>
</div>
<!-- end top menu --> 

As you can see the notes are very easy to find and you know where the code block ends.  So now we will first add new div container for our in works module position.

Right under <!-- end top menu -->  we add 

<div class="newposition">
</div>

That was easy. Now let us test text paragraph inside our newposition div class  and refresh our  frontpage to see if we did it right.

<!-- end top menu -->
<div class="newposition">
    <p> This will be my new module positions </p>
</div>

and save index.php
After the test we simply add Joomla module call instead our paragraph. Like this :

<div class="newposition">
    <jdoc:include type="modules" name="user10" style="xhtml" />
</div>

and save index.php

Note!

style="xhtml":
will generate module output as simple div wrap with class .moduletable. 

<div class="newposition">
    <div class="moduletable">
        <h3>Module Title</h3>
        MODULE CONTENT
    </div>
</div>

style="rounded" :

will have output with 4 additional divs that can be used for rounded corners module style and class changes from moduletable to module

<div class="newposition">
    <div class="module">
        <div>
            <div>
                <div>
                    <h3>Module Title</h3>
                    MODULE CONTENT
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

style="raw" : will have output with no div wrappers and no module title :

<div class="newposition">
    MODULE CONTENT
</div>

And test again . Please publish simple module in user10 module position. If the module position user10 is not available please open templateDetails.xml and find <positions>  tag . Right under tag

<positions>

add

<position>user10</position>

and save templateDetails.xml. Is module  visible ? Yes ? Great job!  You can continue with styling your module class by adding 

following styles to your templates.css file

.newposition .moduletable{
color:#ff6600 ;/*orange text color :) */
}
/*rounded corners*/
.newposition .module{ 
color:#ff6600 ;/*orange text color :) */
}
.newposition .module div{
}
.newposition .module div div{
}
.newposition .module div div div{
}
.newposition .module div div div div{
}

Now let us take this a step further and make this module collapsible ( module and module div wraps appearing on assigned pages only ) . All we need to do is add small php code snippet before your module code div wrapper:

<? php  if ($this->countModules('user10')) { ?>
<div class="newposition">
    <jdoc:include type="modules" name="user10" style="xhtml" />
</div>
<?php } ?>

All done! Now call your friends and tell them that you are Joomla Template Developer :) . Cheers!

on August 16th 2011, we have decided to keep both  (1.6 and 1.7) demo version in our download sections. This way you get to choose if you would like to install Joomla 1.5 , Joomla 1.6 or Joomla 1.7 demo websites.

We also tested our current Joomla 1.6.5 demos and they are all easy to upgrade to Joomla 1.7 by using default Joomla one click update ( since Joomla 1.6.5). We hope that this will help you better understand all existing Joomla versions and give you the choice to run the demo by using you favorite Joomla version.

Please note that some Joomla 1.5 Template Demos are still in upgrade process to Joomla 1.6/1.7. The conversion tracker can be found here and for more info about Youjoomla Upgrades Roadmap please read this post.
