Screenshots

 

What a blast, both my first overseas trip and my fist international conference as well. This huge opportunity was not to be wasted.

Janaro is a flexible, zone based, multi-variation and fully responsive Joomla template, built for a wide range of websites, from corporate/business presentations to content-heavy movie, film or food portals that usually display high resolution imagery.

Setting up our Demo

As you can see the template offers three different homepages. On uses modules, K2 content modules and one uses the component view. Since there are 4 different K2 templates you can create numerous variations of these pages.

The Front-page and module positions

The template positions of this template offer a quick and efficient setup.
You have the Hero position where you can setup the Featured or the slideshow module. The nuJanaro_AboveContent, nuJanaro_Content and the nuJanaro_BellowContent positions which you can publish full width modules like the Editorial and also a sidebar nuJanaro_Right.
Finally there are the nuJanaro_Breadcrumbs, nuJanaro_Search and two positions for the menu.

Template functionality

From the template’s settings view apart from the colours, you can also control most of the template’s functionality.

• Select your site’s width
• Choose between three predefined home templates
• Choose between three template variations
• Use your own colour variations or use one of the ten predefined ones
• Enter your social links
• Select the main text and header font.
• Upload three different logos

All these settings are located in template’s parameters.

Template and color variations

Apart from the ten predefined colour variations in the quick start packages we have included three template variations based on our color and font variations to suit your content’s needs.

The default template - which is ideal for a cinema/ movie based content.
The Music variation - which uses a darker palette is excellent for music/ art related content.
The Food variation - which used serif fonts and a lighter palette making it ideal for cooking sites.

Using the template of your choice

Once you download the quick start Go to Extensions -> Template Manager and select the template you want as default.
Not using the quick start package, no worries.

• The musicmad template uses the following settings:
• 1500 pixels for site width
• Dark Yellow color variation
• The Gentium Basic font for text
• The Alfa Slab font for headers and the smaller font size settings for the headers

The cooxmad (food variation) uses the following settings:

• 1500 pixels for site width
• Light Turquoise color variation
• The Quattrocento font for text
• The Playfair Display for headers and the smaller font size settings for the headers

Choosing between horizontal and fly-out menus

The template has two different menu styles. The only thing you need to do for choosing is to publish your menu in the nuJanaro_Horizontal_Menu position for a horizontal menu and the nuJanaro_Menu for a flyout menu. It is advised not to use both menus at the same time.

Choosing the right logo for your site

The template offers the ability to upload multiple logos. The standard one and two variations of it.
You have the option to use an inverted logo that appears over the Hero section. This logo will be visible only if the Featured module is published.
The other option you have is to use a smaller logo for your K2 items. This smaller logo will appear over the main image on the top right corner of the site.
If a variation is not present the default logo will be used in all views.

Using a text logo

Don’t want to use an image, we’ve got you covered. You can use a text logo and you do not have to worry about the color. The template will determine the color of the picture and it will assign the logo automatically a lighter color if is needed.

Image Placeholders

This template uses a placeholder image. If you want to change the placeholder simply replace the image at: /templates/janaro/images/placeholder.png

K2 sub-templates and categories

Default template.
The default template can be seen by clicking on the Using K2 link. It is better suited for news listings.

Movies template.
This is a category template specially built for your movie or special item listings.

Grid template.
This template is self-explanatory. This is a template for your grid listings.

Item templates.
There are three specific templates for items that full utilise the power of K2.
The box office, the top10 and the poster (check the demo where both template are being used).

The box office template is used for producing a box office inside your item while the poster template is specifically designed to accomodate vertical (portrait images) eg. Movie Posters. Finally the Top 10 template is used for producing your top 10 charts.

Depending on the number of columns and the presence of a sidebar, you can choose the appropriate image size.
If you have a sidebar present or you are using multiple columns for your layout you may choose the medium image size.
Otherwise you can use the Large size.

K2 Extrafields

This template uses K2 to its fullest extent. The extrafields are use to produce a truly fully functional movie oriented portal.
With these extra fields you can:

• Display Additional Movie details such as cast, director producer, the poster image, etc.
• Display a top - 20 Box Office either as a module or within the K2 item.
• Display reviews, with an avatar and a link to the source.
• Display a Top 10 chart
• Display Ingredients, cooking time and recipe related info
• Display release info and rating about a music album

The extra fields are separated to five different groups.

• The box office which is used for the top - 20
• The movie details
• Music Fields
• Recipe fields
• Top - 10 which are used for creating Top - 10 charts.

You are free to change the labels of the extra fields but the aliases should remain unchanged because they are rendered directly in the template.

K2 Content module templates

• BoxOffice - for presenting the latest Box Office
• Top - for creating top 10 listings
• Default - the module’s default template
• Editorial - the module placed under the Hero section
• Featured - the module that is used on the Hero section
• Frontpage modue - it produces a category like layout so it can be used instead of the component.

Additional Module Settings.

Two modules need specific module suffixes in order to have the exact look and feel as in the demo.
The leaderboard banners need the “bannerArea" suffix.
