Translating current template to cmsms???

Post by sds »

How hard would it be to translate this current layout:

http://www.sabresreport.com/layout/

to cmsms?  I am looking for a horizontal nav, 2 column layout that doesn't exist in the default templates.  bTW, it has not been IE6 proofed yet, so please view in Firefox or any other modern browser.

I guess I don't see anything there that is 2 columns, horizontal drop down w/o news.  Am I missing something?  Are these difficult to adapt?

What you see in the thumbnail is just one way of using it when you import and use them the content and other columns will have nothing in them till you add content etc. so one with 2 columns the smaller col. can have anything you desire even a vert. menu.

To change them from left to right you need to switch the floats and the margins.

Adapting templates to CMSMS is very easy if you know just a little html and CSS, there is a video tutorial in the documentation tab up top under the handbook.
