Hi all,
I am a newbie at Joomla World, I need some suggestions/help about some issues. Yes, I have a lot of questions, sorry for that :( Some of my questions are maybe too much extension based but I am hoping to find people using the same components on rockets like me :) Most of Rocket Templetes/Extensions have K2 support so maybe I can get some information from you.
I am using Joomla 2.5 , Reflex Template from RocketTheme ( you can check it here,
demo.rockettheme.com/ ) and installed K2 on it. Curently, I am working at local, didn't get any hosting yet.
1. Downloaded Language extension from
getk2.org/extend/translations , also uploaded/installed but doesnt work? I cannot understand how to configure it? Can you help me please?
2. When I get into an article to read, rating part has 6 stars ( kinda 5.5 stars). At demo site, it's 5 stars, normal. How can I solve that issue? ( rate_6stars.jpeg attached)
3. For K2 items, when you put them to main module position for example, Where is a setting like "Show maximum 10 articles" at home page? This way I don't want to load 100 articles as I am building kinda blog site? It can be a plugin giving me "Next-Previous Buttons" too? Can you recommend the best way for this please?
4. And of course css problem...I want to custimize the modules, maybe bg images, colors, font changes for K2 Comments, Tools, Users, etc modules. I searched all joomla.org, K2 forums, other resources from internet etc for more than 5 hours. CSS file can be compressed, use firebug etc, I read all. I still cannot find the related
5. I want to use K2 Tag Cloud but even the settings are "Min font size (%)=75, Max font size (%)=500", all words' fonts are the same font, nothing big or small. How can I fix this? ( k2_tag_cloud.jpeg attached)
6. How can I remove the "Tweet , Facebook Like, g+1" coming from K2 default? I wanna put a more stylish one by removing it. ( k2_social_remove.jpg attached)
7. If I install an extensions/plugin but don't use it (disabled), would it effect performance of my site? Also what if I forget it enabled but don't use it at my site? Would it effect the performance?
I would be happy if you can spare 5-10 minutes to help me, Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Murat
