What’s new in the latest template editions?

Dear JoomlaShine users, you might have heard that we’ve just released the latest template version few days ago:

It includes major updates in the template installation package. There are some enhancements in this version which we want to bring you. So, what are they?

The answer is here:

• Joomla 2.5/3.0 installation package
• Kunena Styling support for JSN Epic PRO
• Module class suffix to display an icon now comes with the prefix "jsn-"
• "Background" module position

Joomla 2.5/3.0 installation package

JSN Epic in Joomla 3.0 Administration

The appearance of Joomla 3.0 is the hottest topic in Joomla Community and it’s the same for JoomlaShine users. Many customers ask about a version compatible with Joomla 3.0. We said it’s “coming soon” and finally it’s here, in the latest update of JSN templates. Only one package for both Joomla 2.5 and 3.0 installations - how convenient it is!

Joomla 3.0 installation packages have been updated for 3 editions: Free, Pro Standard and Pro Unlimited. So, you will find it very easy to download and try this latest version right now. What are you waiting for? Check it out!

Kunena Styling Support for JSN Epic PRO

Kunena

After so much good feedback from customers about K2 and EasyBlog styling support in our template, now we will rock you with Kunena – the leading Joomla Forum Component on the market. Kunena runs well on JSN Epic and besides that, its design is customized to look even better. Hey, Kunena and JSN Epic lovers, are you excited by this news?

Please note that now only JSN Epic PRO for Joomla 2.5 supports Kunena since Kunena is not ready for Joomla 3.0 yet. This support is defaulted and there is no parameter in backend to configure it. With other JSN templates, we will try our best to make it available as soon as possible. So, keep following us to be informed of the latest news about this!

Module class suffix to display an icon now comes with the prefix "jsn-"

20 predefined icons with prefix "jsn-"

We all know that Bootstrap is integrated in Joomla 3.0, so in this JSN template package, we changed the structure of the name of icons in order to avoid conflicts. That is the reason why now the 20 predefined icons of the template come up with prefix “jsn-”, so “icon-xxx” becomes “jsn-icon-xxx”. You should take care with this change in order to avoid the inconvenience of icons not being displayed.

“Background” module position

The layout now provides you with a “Background” module position which allows you to change the background of your website easily. You need to create a new module custom HTML, set the module position to “background” and finally add a new background in the “Custom output” tab. After saving the module, you can view the site to see the result. How easy it is!
