How to display the slideshow of the demo ?

You can download this responsive slideshow on my website.

Install the module and edit it :

• choose the position : "image"

Thesse are my settings :

Note : The responsive slideshow use always all the available width and don't cropped your image (so you can't specify a fixed height). To compress the picture , you can use the website JPEG Optimizer .

Bootstrap & Jquery

The template work perfectly without Bootstrap and Jquery.

• You want a light website and no additionnal features : don't load these files
• You want use only some basic typography of Bootstrap : load only CSS Bootstrap file.
• You want use Bootstrap animations : load CSS and JS Bootstrap files and Jquery library

Note : the version of Jquery is 1.8.1

Note 2 : There's a lot of possibility with Bootstrap and it's for advanced users or developper. My support don't include the utilisation of Bootstrap.

Tips for the user modules

In the template manager, you can choose the width for user4 and user6. The width of user5 automatically adjusts.

So, if you publish only one user module : publish user5 (for a width of 100%).

If you publish two users module : publish user4 and user5, or user5 and user6.

It's the same thing for user1, user2 and user3 / user7, user8 and user9

Tips for your images

You can add the class "shadow" for your images if you want obtain a shadow around (see the page "flexibility and simplicity" of the demo) :

Customize the template

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

Link

To continue to offer affordable prices, I decided to display a soft Copyright in the bottom right corner to increase awareness of the site JoomSpirit.

This does not affect your site, but if you want remove this link, you must edit the file "index.php" and delete this line in the end (line 413) :

<?php echo $js ; ?>
