Hi ced,

I have an idea that will make TC easier to use for those of us who work with multiple templates on a site.

In the top menu bar, can we have a notice for the template name we are working on?

I've attached a screenshot.

Hi Ced,

I've had another thought for TC that would make it better, at least in my opinion!

Would it be possible to have 'Universal Header / Footer sections'?

For example, I've just finished a website that uses 5 different templates for various pages, this is fine but I have to edit the header/footer sections (which are exactly the same in each template version) now 5 times with the same info if I need to make a change, or add something to the <head> etc.

It would be nice to have a 'master template' that contains the header - content - footer areas, then an option to create other 'content' areas only that could be inserted with JS into the main 'master framework' and saved as new templates in their own right.

Then, all you would need to do is edit the 'master header / master footer' and it would be automatically appended to all other templates.

I know this is kind of what TC and PB do when paired together, but I like to use TC mainly on it's own, as I'm sure others do.

What do you think?

Regards, Brendan

HI
I'm not sure to understand the need
what is different from your templates ? you can use somz wrappers that will be shown on some pages and not others, for example f you have no module publised in it, the wrapper will not show. This is made using the module assignment

I don't think that your request is something to be done in the template, or if you really want to, you can create your own files of header and footer and call them with PHP using the "code" block

if you explain me why you have a such situation, may be that I could understand

Morning Ced,

I've just seen this in the Joomlashack Blog.

Code:

https://www.joomlashack.com/blog/joomla-recaps/all-the-joomla-news-for-may

A plugin to automatically add responsive images to any part of Joomla, just like Wordpress does.

Code:

https://ttc-freebies.github.io/plugin-responsive-images

There are even code examples to show how to add the plugin code to article overrides for main & intro images, as well as inline images in the content and custom modules etc.

It would be great to have something like this in TC and PB.
Regards, Brendan
