I use the size modif for K2 add item pop-up, it's very useful...

 

And for your template, really cool, maybe I'm going to buy it, if you know a place to buy it cheaper than 45$ ... ^^

 

 

BBC : Yes I think, it's the value in px which separates the border of pop up from the edge of the screen... but I'm not sure, the most important is that's work :)

 

Edit : And I forget to say that 'padding': 0 is the width of the black border of the modal box, so you can pu 'padding':1 , 'padding':2 ....etc

 

If you want to hide the close button, you also could add the parameters :

 

onShow:$('sbox-btn-close').setStyles({'background': 'none'}),

onShow:$('sbox-btn-close').setStyles({'height': 0}),

 

It's not really clean but it works, and you have a lot of others setting for modalbox...

@juju: You're right, 45$ is not so cheep for a template. But coding such a template on my own would be really time-consuming, because I'm not really good in coding :D

I made my active running template on my own (-> www.robin-nonnweiler.de). I learned a lot during this process, but I have too little time to do this again :D

Problem is if Google index your K2 Items as iframed. Visitors land at links without menu and navigation.

It needs to be more researched. More information not so old.

Ok, so it is not such good as I thought before.

Maybe there are some solutions to solve this problem.

There is not penalty for using iframes. But, K2 Items are major content at the website.

 

For some popup mail form, online form, some images, etc.... it is OK. Google just ignore it.

 

This tweak presented here definitely give real K2 Item URL in source code. So it is easy for spiders to index Items.

But if you C/P those URL´s in browser you get an Item without menu, modules and navigations.

 

And so will be almost your whole site indexed.

I wouldn´t advice using Iframes for K2 Items. For some fancy secondary things is OK.

WOW

 

What did I miss!!! I wake up and now I see all of this is there ! Does this work 100% so I can do all of this ? If yes, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU - I waited months for this...

Yep, seems to work but I dont get the css settings coming through - is this the Modalbox for JCE you were refering to ?

Look back one-two pages. There is a URL where is explained how to easy get styling in modal box.

Thanx!!! This one ?

www.theartofjoomla.com/reference/17-templates/60-the-popup-template-file.html

This tweak with Items in modal box can work well.

Spiderf find real (full) URL´s, follow and index them. (need to be checked if Google doesn´t threat "iframe" still as extern domain. Because of that i said you need to read more new information, not something back in 2003-2005)

 

And you need to find at Joomla forum if is it possible (with .htaccess, some ad to this code in tweak, or with robots.txt) force spiders to disregard that "&tmpl=component" at the eend of URL´s.

 

If it is possible then you have real indexing, Items as it would be without popup, with navigation, menu, modules, etc...

 

If someone find your site at Google, click on it and land in Item as it is in modal box. Then there it ends. You lose a viisitors, because he/she cannot go nowhere else in your site.

 

Yes, this one. I tested it works. Took me 5-10 minutes.

Some few classes needs to be fixed manually.

Maybe some explanation. When you follow info from that link, copy some code in that file, paste it under and put a path to your K2 CSS (default CSS, or template override CSS). Don´t delete rest.

sounds confusing but I will try it - thanx BBC

It is easy. Just copy one existing code in component.php for CSS. Paste it uder this code and change path in link to point to yur K2 CSS file.
