TOPIC: Disappointed

Disappointed 1 year, 9 months ago #975

I bought the coffeine template and installed it. I am very disappointed because the top menu is not in the brown bar, the story blocks under the navigation are not there. It really doesn't look like the demo at all. Thats why I bought the demo, because I don't know how to build my own. Is there some sort of help now to make this look like it should. How do I get those story block and get the top nav up where it should be?

Please use Hot Start installation procedure to make copy of Demo on your server. You have instructions here: demo.hotjoomlatemplates.com/coffeine/ind...;id=23&Itemid=63

I have also purchased the Coffeine template and was hoping to use it on my existing site but when I install it my site does not look the same as the demo, no top menu or adverts etc. I have installed hotstart on another part of the server and it all seems to work fine there, but how to get it to look the same on my original joomla site?

Regards

I know you would like simply to install new template on your old site and... boom... got old site with new template. This sounds nice but it's not possible. Why?

Because every Joomla template has different structure, layout of modules, and other elements.

So, after installation of template on the old site, you'd need additional work in Joomla backend to change all elements to make them "fit" into the new template.

HotStart is used to help in building new website. It's unusable for websites already filled up with content.
