How to customize the layout of login page in joomla - joomla

Just want change the layout of the login page same as other pages, I want to remove the left sidebar bar and show the main menu, few images and text. You can see the current layout.
Visit http://www.egovtsolutions.net/index.php/component/users/?view=login

You can make the menu module display on all pages rather than on selected pages...then the menu will be displayed on all pages.

You have to choose display option from that module. If you want to enable some modules in that position just check the menus names from that module.
If you don't want any module in login page just unselect all modules from that page. Then only you have better look for login prompt as your wish.
Try this....

I dont know which version of joomla are you working on. But this link covers from joomla 1.5 to 1.7.
You should try to give the "extra2" or "position-29" to your log in module.
The key is just the position you are assigning.

magento; diasble blocks on product page

I have a slider on my home page. Thats correct but when I go to product page you see also the slider. Where can I turns this off?
I want it only on the home page.
Thanks!!
Use latest version of magento and the Magikshop theme from Themeforest.
First of all, have you installed the seperate extension for slider or it comes with your theme? If it was default provided by your theme.Then you can find the setting to configure the slider in
"System->configuration" in your admin panel.
Search for the banner or slider you may get the setting there to select which page you want to show the slider.
The setting may be different according to the slider.
If you have installed the extension yourself then you may find the banner/slider menu in the admin panel.
Hope this will help.
If the slider is a widget, you should be able to specify the pages that show a widget instance. The widgets that are in use can be found in the CMS section of the Magento Admin panel.
If the slider is a block you probably need to disable/remove/unset that block from your product detail page. To disable block on a particular page, you need to edit your layout Xml file. These files are most probably found in the following folder:
app/design/frontend/THEME/default/layout/
How to unset a block is described, e.g. here: Magento - remove block using update XML

How to attach ItemID to joomla footermenu

I am don't know joomla, but familiar with wordpress & PHP & wants to change some links in my clients existing project.
I have a menu which is a link like http://www.smarti.com.sa/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6&Itemid=107 while calling it from top navigation menu.
developer has taken same link in footer but it redirects to
http://www.smarti.com.sa/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6
Now i want ItemID in footer link also.
My Site URL is http://www.smarti.com.sa/
In that please Products > Microsoft.
Please give solution
As per your post, Your menu link for now is : http://www.smarti.com.sa/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6 .
But, you want to use this like : http://www.smarti.com.sa/index.php/your_menu_name.
You can use aliases of menu links.
You can find aliases here, When you create/edit a menu link from backend of joomla you can see an alias associated with it. You can also find Aliases of menu link from grid screen of you menu type.
For showing Menu in front end you have to create CUSTOM HTML module, You can find how to create Custom HTML module here : http://vinaora.com/2012/09/how-to-add-custom-html-to-your-joomla-site-2/
Now, How can you find HTML to write in thst Custom HTML Module? So, for this you can go the page of front-end where that menu is visible. Now prss CTRL+U, you will see the HTML of that page. Here, you have to find the HTML of those menus.
In this HTML, you will find the links like : index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6
Now, you have to replace these links with index.php/alias_of_your_menu.
Now paste the edited HTML in Custom HTML module and save it by selecting a proper Position.
You can use joomla menu module in the footer.
Joomla also has the option to display second level menu items in a menu module.
To do this:
Set the Start Level to "1" and the End Level to "1".
That's all. Good Luck.

Why my top menu dissappear when in register or reset page in joomla 2.5

I have created a custom joomla template based on blank joomla template from http://blank.vc/. Everything was fine until i clicked either forgot password?, forgot your username? or create account link that bring me to register or reset page in frontend but strangely the top menu was gone.
This is the screenshot :

i have no idea why this could happenned.
Please help with this. I appreciate all the help. Thanks!
The problem is because only on the pages selected option for module assignment is set. If you open a page which doesn't belong to any menu, then module won't be shown on it.
You can either check menu module to be shown on all pages, or make a new menu item for forgot password functionality, and then assign that menu for both menu module, and breadcrumbs module.
I don't know which Joomla version you're using and what you use for translation, but if you use Joomfish or Falang, language translation should be much easier.
If you don't use any of those, and you really need to leave everything as it is, then you can also detect current user language in the template, and load either one or the other menu module based on it. That way you can set module to be shown on all pages, and make sure it is displayed only for the choosen language.

Joomla! Module not showing up after implementing sh404sef

I have placed a module in the position "Below content" on my Joomla!-site. It is supposed to show up below the content (well ...) like shown in the picture attached. Problem is, it only does so when I set it to 'show on all pages', and I only want it to appear on a selected few pages. When I set it to only show on these pages, it disappears!
It is the carousel called "Andre modeller"See the image here
Now, I have disabled the module except on this page (and the other beachflag pages): http://anansi.dk/strandflag-a
And it is gone. It worked before I implemented sh404SEF. Anyone?
:-) Astrid
For anyone that stumbles across this question, the sh404sef user manual page on Troubleshooting issues with missing modules might be of assistance.
In brief, first ensure that the module is set to display on the specific menu. Then:
In Joomla's menu list, find the Itemid of the menu item that displays the page. It will be listed in the last column labelled ID. You will need this ID later in the last step.
Open the sh404SEF URL manager and locate the SEF url for that page which is not displaying the module. You will notice that the SEF url will have at least 1 duplicate URL for this item. Click on the this number to open the Duplicates Manager.
There should be a native URL such as (index.php?option=com_k2&Itemid=345&id=214&lang=en&view=item) that contains the Itemid you found in step 1 above. You need to make it the Main url by clicking on the Make Main button.
Hope this helps.

YooTheme Zoo Application Blog Front Page

I am using YooTheme's ZOO Blog application on my front page. I have two things I'd like to acheive;
When clicking on an article title, you are taken to a page where you
have the article in full view, including any read-more content you
may/may not have. When taken to this page, you still have all modules
which are assigned to the 'home' menu item. Unfortunately, in order
for the application, 'Blog' to show on the front page - it must be
assigned to the 'home' menu item.
I'd preferably like the full article page just to have the menu module at the top, and perhaps any modules I do actually 'enable'.
A strange one - I'd like to have no pagination at the bottom of my
front page. I'd simply like to encourage users to go to a separate
page that lists all of the news.
I hope someone can help!
I'd utilise the 'fantastic' community that YooTheme holds - but unfortunately, after 3 months (being the lowest tier when you buy a product) any and -all- support stops. This includes the ticketing system which is mainly community-help based.
If need be, I can provide screen shots.
You can edit the full and any layout by clicking to the icon in zoo administrator panel. There you can edit every element in the link which is under your app type name! Next to the "Default" or your template there are links for full, teaser, feed etc. Full is for the full view of the item and teaser is for the category/front page view! In Yootheme's website you can find a comprehensive documentation about zoo also! Let me know if you need anything else
I found the answers to this problem. (I'm not native english speaker, but I hope you'll understand)
First method - sh404sef, I don't know whether it's a feature or a bug in that component, but that what you need to do:
Unpublish your default homepage menu item(zoo category for example) to wich there were assigned modules that you dont need to be shown, then create and make it Default Page(star sign) new menu item(or use existing one), and assign to it the modules that you want to appear in the full item view(I'm using product not a blog zoo app) or article full view when you click link from homepage and opens zoo item page or zoo category page.
In joomla Globa Configuration turn on - Use URL rewriting, then in sh404sef Control Panel turn on - Enable URL optimization and Rewriting mode with .htaccess . Errase all the url links in sh404SEF: URL manager(if any exist), we need it (sh404SEF) to create new links.
Now when you open new default home page with modules you need to be shown in the zoo item full view, you start to going on ALL the zoo links you wish to open then with that quantity of modules. sh404sef creates SEF link in it backend (in URL manager). And that links will open with exactly with that quantity of modules with zoo.
Now you can publish back again your previos homepage and make it default page. And there will be modules that you want on homepage, but because of links that sh404sef created when you were clicking, the zoo items or article links will open with different modules that we asigned to our second default page you use to create those links. For that purpose I commonly use existing menu item where will be another set of modules not like in the homepage. When you have new link on site you have to partially repeat that. You have to go on that link first time from the page where quantity of modules suits you (and to be on the safe side make that page your default page for that time)
Second method - JoomlaXTC Zoo Item Wall, its a module you don't have to make menu item to show zoo items on a homepage. But, I didn't tried it myself I only read about it.
