1. Get to Know Your Template:

You'll also find links to the LIVE Demo Site, the Download area, as well as the Forum where you can ask questions.
  • Need Help Getting Around Joomlart.com? We've created a QUICK ACCESS GUIDE to help you become a Joomlart Power User. This is a wonderful reference, full of tips on how to quickly find the template info, demo sites, module position guides and more. We don't want you to miss a thing!

2. Download Template and Extensions:

Check download folder for the Quickstart, Template zip and other complimentary extensions zip files.

Plan your website Development:

  • Making a New Website ? - If you are planning to make a new website, then use our Quickstart package to clone the demo site and replace the demo content with yours. Check How to install Quickstart Package.
  • Installing on your live site ? - If you are planning to use this template on your already live website. Then you should follow How to make your site look like demo site guide first to learn about the steps involved. Then you can follow the userguide below.

1. Installing Template on your Joomla:

1.1 Browse and Download: Go To Download Folder of JA Travel and download the Template zip file. Refer to this screenshot for overview of download folder.

1.2 Install the Template: Now install the Template to your Joomla 1.6. Follow This Guide if you are new.

If you are new to Joomla, check out our detail documentatation of How to Install Joomla Template

View Detail Documentation

2. Template Configuration:

JA Travel template will install with Settings used on the demo website. So you can delay the configuration until you complete the setup (installing the other modules / plugins used on the demo site).

Once you have completed the setup, you can come back to the template back-end and check the various options for customizing your template. Refer to this Universal T3 V2 Back-end Config Guide for options to customize your installed template.

Note: T3 V2 template configs are the same in Joomla 1.5 and Joomla 1.6 . So the above guide link is valid for both.

Links to resources on T3 V2 Framework templates and advance configs:

Error ? - I see “Missing T3” error on the front-end?

T3 framework 2 based templates need the T3 Framework Plugin to be installed and enabled.

3. Installing T3 Framework 2 Plugin (T3 system plugin):

Download the T3 Framework 2 Plugin (aka T3 System plugin), Install and enable it.

If you are new, follow This Guide to learn how to install plugins in Joomla.

1. Installing complimentary / included extensions and Demo configurations:

  • Free Extensions: (aka complimentary / included extensions). We use many extensions in our demo site to provide greater flexibility and features. These are provided for free to our members.
  • Custom HTML Module: To match the design of the template, we also style (CSS) for Custom HTML modules using different div classes. You will need to check the HTML codes and make sure to use the recommended HTML markup to get correct display. We provide the HTML code in this userguide.

Know your Module Positions:

  1. View Module Position Image (used positions only).
  2. Use Module Position Overlay in Template (used & empty module positions).

Typography Styles - Supported in JA Travel:

JA Travel comes with multiple typography styles for headings, content, tables, buttons, quotes, lists and so on...

You can view the Typography Pages on the Demo site: Typography Page

And here is HTML code:

1. Basic_typography_options_HTML_Code.txt

2. Additional_page_elements_HTML_Code.txt

3. Curabitur_ac_eros_sed_HTML_Code.txt

4. Basic_elements_HTML_Code.txt

You can use the above HTML code to make similar page on your site and refer to the codes for using Typography.

Important: These typography styles are specific to JA Travel template and if you use them in your content and later decide to change the template, the styles will be broken, as these styles depend upon the template based css files (typo.css). We recommend using minimum typography, if you plan to change your template in the future.
