and beta releases cannot be upgraded. So far we have logged 2 minor YJSG bugs that are already fixed but we will delay the upgrade until Joomla 3.2 RC is out ( due October 30th 2013 ) to make sure that we catch all possible issues. If you are using Joomla 3.2 beta to test your website and see that your YJSG based template has issue , please do not be alarmed. We are tracking all current Joomla changes and will release an update when we are absolutely sure that you will not have any further issues when Joomla 3.2 comes out.

But due to the script options and reliability on 3rd party system , some of your questions were unanswered, emails got lost, support system was abused by non-members and you were able to get faster response trough support forum instead of the live chat feature. To make sure that all your questions are answered on time, in few weeks we will be rolling out a ticket system for our members. Until then live chat is disabled and if you have any questions please use our support forums. 

and as you can see we did as much as we can to make this experience transparent for all our users. Some of you might have experienced page load lags or login glitches but everything is better than actual server down time.

Since the attack is still ongoing we had to make executive decision and start a server move. This is still in process and we are hoping to make it painless as possible to all our members and their clients.

After the move the worst case scenario could be that some of you ( the ones that signed up on the DNS resolving day ) experience account loss once we are on the new network. Please do not be alarmed by this but give us few hours to reconstruct the users database and restore your account info.

 

Note that none of the data is lost, is just that the DNS resolver can bounce you back to the old server instead of new one. This process usually takes up to 24h. Once we are ready to move, you will see a notice on our homepage and we will post info on our Twitter and Facebook pages.

 

Current login issue fix:

If you experience not able to download issue, please go to your member page click on this logout button

and than  login again. There is possible stubborn cookie that is not letting you logout, if the option above does not work, close session, clear cache and login again.

We hope you understand that we doing as much as we can to make all this as easy as possible for you, and to ease your pain and assure you that we are still on track,

here is preview of our new template.

Please understand that the new template will be released after we have moved to our new server. We would also like to thank everyone that gave us huge support in the past 10 days and is devoted to our cause.

 

Thank you for understanding.

3. Go to your new template demo admin area ( your_domain_name/administrator )
4. In Template demo administration go to Components->Joomla Update

 

5. Once you are in In Template demo administration Joomla Update look to your top right and click on icon options

This version is a crossroad between further YJSG development and brings some very exciting features that you can take advantage of.

The YJSG website is packed with an extensive amount of helpful documentation articles that will help you customize and use our YJSG Template Framework.  

 

What is the delay then?

As some of you know our team spent some time to help implement a new feature in the Joomla CMS. Since the wait is over, we can now include the proposed code in our templates and release them to you. Beside that, we are updating all our Joomla 2.5 demos with upgraded extensions for Joomla 3.0 so that conversion from Joomla 2.5 to Joomla 3.0 is as painless as possible. Silviu is refining our YJCompression plugin that will help you speed up your website load time. 

 

We hope you understand that we are on track and that you will get your new toys as soon as possible. This time we will not give any dates but we will do our best to rush things out for you. Instead of releasing templates one by one, all demos, templates and YJSG new website will be released at the same time.

  

Please do not be alarmed if one or two templates are released in mean time. Once the YJSG v1.0.14 is out all you would need to do is one click reinstall to update your templates to new version. 

Best regards YJ Team.

 

we did not have default core template overrides examples except the documentation on how to make one.

To make things easier for you and provide small help to anyone who would like to change the default core extensions markup , I have made template override packs for Joomla 3.x core extensions wich includes overrides for core components and modules.

Pack 1 is default template override with no markup change. Pack 2 is also default template override but without calls for Bootstrap. Please note that in order to completely disable Bootstrap when using Pack 2 you also need to remove call for Bootstrap from your template index.php file.  

You can do this by commenting out folowing  line from your index.php:

JHtml::_('bootstrap.framework');

 

How does it work?

Just download the pack your need and move it to site_root/templates/template_name/html folder. Extract the zip and now you can control the layout of core Joomla! extensions from your template overrides folder.

To see example go to your website and find the page where module login is published. Now open site_root/templates/template_name/html/mod_login/default.php file and add some text.
Refresh your web page and your change will be visible.
