I would like to make my K2 content page (my landing page) look like my Yootheme dot com Avenue's Orange option.
I.e. the date box with a hanging out-dent, and the "read more" as a button.

Yootheme.com Avenue Template - Orange Style
See screen cap below:


It currently looks like this:


Can you help me make the appropriate edits, or point me in the right direction? to customizing my category?

Thank you in advance,
SCOT

I would suggest buying the template.
Getting code from a commercial template would be against their TOS.

Hi Krikor,
I have a valid subscription. (I should have said that first.)
My problem is applying the template to the K2 content. (Or visa-versa.) Just really learning how to wrap my head around this. I just can't find any specific K2 + Yootheme instructions/tutorials.

If you can point me to any K2 customization tutorials or CSS overrides, or Menu overrides. I'm understanding what they mean in theory, but need real-work examples to work from.

Yootheme support, sadly, is useless. :-(

I wish I could help you but I do know the specifics of that template, nor the YOO framework.

I would suggest that you install the template's quickstart package which has all the modules and menus already setup.

Already done.
Can you tell me, in K2 what file(s) need to be edited to customize categories or themes?
Or point me to the appropriate wiki/tutorials?

I am sorry but since I do not know the specifics of the template I can only point you to K2 generic documentation.
This might help you: www.joomlaworks.net/blog/item/194-k2-inheritance-sub-templating

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any way to get hold of him (I have tried Twitter, Youtube and Gitter). Even the extension listed on JW only has links to the domain, which is currently down for almost a week.

I would really like to purchase this, but not sure how else I can do.
