• To insert your logo, you must create a new module (option "custom html"), insert your logo inside (with the wysiwyg editor). Choose the position "logo" and publish it. The logo is automatically centered.

How to configure your menus ?

The dropdown menus (main menus):

There are 2 drop down menus : the first on the left side and a second menu on the right side.

On the demo, I created and published 2 menus (with 3 parent items in each of them). The first on the left side and the second on the right side.
The width of each menu items is fixed. So I recommend you to displayed 2 or 3 menu items on each side of your logo. It's not possible to display more parents items.

Drop down menu on the left side :

To obtain that, you must select your first menu in module manager and enter these settings :

• position : "menu_left"
• Always show sub-menu items : "yes"
• none Module class suffix

Note for mobile devices : the type of all parent items must be "external url" (don't use the type text-separator). Choose the type "external url" and enter the character # in the url field :

Drop down menu on the right side :

It's exactly the same settings with the module position "menu_right" :

• position : "menu_right"
• Always show sub-menu items : "yes"

Bootstrap

The template is build with Bootstrap 3.1.1.

Tip : don't forget the option "Menu assignement"

This option is available for all modules and templates. It's a very powerful option and I recommend you to use it !

With this option, you can published a module or a template only on selected page(s). And you can duplicate any module or template.

So if you want modify the settings of your template only on few pages, it's possible and very easy with this option.

Tips for the user modules

In the template manager, you can choose the width for user1 and user3. The width of user2 automatically adjusts.

So, if you publish only one user module : publish user2 (for a width of 100%).

If you publish two users module : publish user1 and user2, or user2 and user3.

It's the same thing for user4, user5, user6 and user7, user8, user9

You can put all your custom code in the file "css/custom.css".

This does not affect your site, but if you want remove this link, you must edit the file "index.php" and delete this code line 608 :

<?php echo $js ; ?>
