Hello Everyone,
I just converted from joomla to cms made simple, because i'm not really a php person, so the more simpler the better!
I tried converting the default skin into my design which you can view at www.koopmanmedia.nl. So the design at koopmanmedia.nl is the goal for me!
I have started over at www.koopmanmedia.nl/Projects/CMS but as you can see, having quite some problems.
The menu on the left, how would I be able to get the menu thesame as the one over at koopmanmedia. I tried and got quite far, but if you look at it in IE it looks off alot, and also in IE doesn't look like I have in the other design. That's the first question, would be really nice if any of you could help me out.
I must say though that I really like the software already, looked in the admin panel and stuff and looks really professional and most important simple! I am defenitely going to use this alot of time!
Thank you in advance!
Could use some help with my first skin!
no one who can help me?
Re: Could use some help with my first skin!
there are about three options to create a layout
first one (as it is my preferred way)
create new template,
write the html without thinking about the layout but keeping a close look at the code so that it is valid and semantically correct
get FF webdev toolbar and start writing css from scratch
when ready copy paste css to new the template css.
Second (the easy way as most oswd layouts can be converted like this)
find some layout (or if you have one ready use it)
copy paste html to new template
replace all content and menuitems from the template with {content} and {menu} so cmsms functions are used for these
check that menumanager template corresponds to the original menu html code
copy paste css
Third and maybe the hardest way
take one of the default templates shipped with cmsms and start editing css to fit your layout. this can be hard as the layout is designed to work one way and you might want something different from it.
second option might be the easiest for your situation
hope this helps
