My Beautiful Laundrette
The alternative template "My Most Beautiful Laundrette" contains a two-column layout with the right column holding a newsbox, calendar, or whatever you want. With a monitor resolution of 1024px x 768px it is also a bit wider than this one.
1) Template name: My Beautiful Laundrette.
2) Template resolution: 800px x 600px and higher.
3) Features: Drop Down menu up to 4 menulevels. Nice search box. Styled sitemap.
4) This template is meant as a guideline for your own template developement. The graphical work can easily be adapted according to your own needs. You just add your own top image and change the color of the buttons. For the horizontal menulevel 1 menu there exist already hover buttons in red, blue, and green. You just exchange them. The hover colours of the lower menu levels have to be changed in the stylesheet. Here we have only coloured fields.
In order to facilitate graphical work, we have added the original template graphics as Firefox PNG and Photoshop PSD-files. You find them in the "ORI" subfolder.
5) The search button is located in the menulevel 1 area. If you need the space for menu buttons, you can move the search function up or down. To do this, open the stylesheet.css file. In line 21 you find an outcommented instruction starting with: /*div#searchbox {position:absolute;top:-25px;........................ */
Remove the outcommenting signs (/* and */) and add them to the instruction just one line above in order to deactivate the unwanted location (or delete the line). Now you can move the search function up or down by changing the instruction "top:-25px". Just use different numbers.
6) This template offers a graphical search function. As it is made it does not allow the "advanced search" plugin. If you want to use this plugin, you have to change the php code of the plugin slightly in order to get rid of the "Search" button in text form.
7) I order to use 4 menu levels you have to set "menu_levels:" to "4" in CMSimple's configurations.
8) We suggest to set "menu_sdoc:" to "parent" in CMSimple's configurations. This is not a prerequisite to use this template, but it looks better.
9) This tamplate has been positively tested with: IE5.5, IE6, IE7, IE8, FF3.x, Chrome1.x, Safari4.x
10) Licence: This template underlies the AGPL3 conditions.
