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

Hello for joomla!
if we didn't want to use bootstrap we lost :
- good login display (correct size of input)
- good pagination display (all link in same line etc)
we need to correct it with custom code ....
can you add some css code in order to have correct display out of box ? (if we want more we can code it for sure but for now it unusable)

An other big idea a realy game changer (for me) is combine pbck and tcck to create article override it can be a gamechanger for your toools
more explain :
if tcck and pbck are installed
in tcck a link to create an override that load pagebuidlderCK in order to create an override for item
construct on vorride via a visual gui can be so cool !
