DOLPHIN 7 PROBLEM WITH HOSTGATOR SHARED HOSTING

Sunday, June 27th, 2010

Hello all,

Recently after i installed Dolphin 7 on a shared hosting, a lot of bugs came up and i tried my best to solve the ones i can , the major bugs were video and sound not loading, email not being sent out even after configuring a cron job very well etc .

Anyway after talking to my hosting company hostgator (highly recommended) , i was told that Dolphin 7 cannot run on a shared hosting but would need a dedicated server. Please read the extract here from the hostgator site.

SHOW MODULE TITLE PROBLEM IN CUSTOM JOOMLA TEMPLATE DESIGN

Sunday, June 13th, 2010

Again let’s call to your attention a little problem with Module title not showing after you have designed your own custom templates. Normally the basic joomla template tutorial which many would tend to follow would show you how to go about your template design but  after designing you may find out that your modules do not show titles even for the fact that you have commanded it to do so in  the joomla admin .

Normally you will get a code like this to display module ‘<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”left” />’,  to get it to display module titles just replace it with this one ‘<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”left” style=”xhtml” />

Notice that the only thing added there is only ‘style=”xhtml” ‘

SETTING UP THE LOGIN PAGE AS A MENU LINK IN JOOMLA

Sunday, June 13th, 2010

Hello all, i just can’t explain why i am  so lazy to blog these days, there are so many things to blog about but let’s get down to business right away.

I know many people who run their sites on joomla would like to have a separate login page set up as a menu link as opposed to the normal login form appearing as a module, especially when you are using virtuemart. Well to do this is very simple.

Just login into your joomla admin > click on menu manager and try to set up a menu under the menu section you want > then afterwards choose type to link the menu to a type > choose “user” in the list and then choose “default login layout”  > Just publish your menu and you should be done by now.

Normally this works with virtuemart because by default, virtuemart is linked to joomla user database if you opted to make it the same.
