There maybe some answers for my questions out there but I have quite a few that I don't have the time to search each item. I am thinking about purchasing the Socialize template. I have been using RocketTheme and Gavick for many years and integrated JomSocial many of time, however I always ran into some compatibility issues with extensions and templates.
These are my questions
1. Socialize is template but JomSocial also has a template feature built within the component. Do the module positions that come standard in JomSocial differ from the Socialize positions (Photos, Events, Videos, Groups)? JomSocial has it's own module positions for the components and if I want to add a module I have to code it that way.
2. Can Socialize integrate with 3rd Party Extensions. When I look at the Socialize Demo (socialize.jomsocial.com) can a slide show go right below the nav bar and above the "Get Connected" block? Also can the different Joomla modules be integrate within the photos, videos, etc. modules
3. How customizable and flexible is this template to create your own look and feel but based off Socialize?
Sorry for all the question but being a long time JomSocial user, I have found it always to be a pain to integrate different templates with different extensions, as one may cause conflicts with another. I am just trying to find a streamlined solution which I was hoping the Socialize template would be for JomSocial since you make both.
Hi Danny,
First of all I would like to say you that, socialize template is integrated with Jomsocial component and it serves all style as new look with different color themes.
However, here the answer according to no
1. Socialize template have own layout management system where there are several module positions where you can place any Jomsocial modules (photos, members, videos, groups...)
2. Socialize template facilitated all purpose that all other template club support. Along with several module position it is highly configurable for different kind of devices (desktop, laptop, tablet, mobile).
3. Please go through all pages of
socialize.jomsocial.com
and if you need more help then feel free to ask question as many as you want.
You can also find your answer in the forum > socialize (category).
