Every template built on Vertex also comes with its own unique template specific options applicable to that particular template such as highlight colors, social icons, and much more. These features are in addition to the standard functions of Vertex, and are still controlled through the very user friendly interface of Vertex. This page will document the features specific to this template.
Template Specific Configuration Interface of Vertex
Below is a screenshot that shows all the template specific features available in the user friendly Vertex admin:
Designed with the Joomanager Component
The Classifieds Ads template is your perfect choice for creating an online listings directory. The directory is powered by the Joomanager component purchased seperately. The directory offers features including, ratings, paid ads, Google map search and unlimited searchable custom fields and much more! TheClassifieds template was designed with the Joomanager component so that you can actually have directory/classified ad functionality with this template. There is custom CSS that we did to get the Joomanager component to match this template. Just simple choose the "default" template layout for all your Joomanager pages and the CSS we put in the template will take control and match Joomanager to the template design.But the template can also be used without the Joomanager component for any style Joomla website. We have a demo of this in the main menu just click "Joomla Frontpage".

Custom_1 Position and Header Background Image
The Image and Content Fader on the homepage is published to the "custom_1" position. When you don't have a module published to the custom_1 position it will collapse and appear as the below image. In the Vertex admin area you can enter in a background image URL which then will show when the custom_1 position is collapsed.
Top Menu
For the demo we published the top menu to public view. We did this to show you what is possible with the template. So for a live site we recommend setting the menu to registered only. That way once logged in a user can then see this and have easy access to their Ads and Profile pages. You would also need to set the proper links for these menu items if using the Site Shaper
Custom Highlight Colors
Photobox comes packed with color options to make styling a breeze. This is all made possible by the very wide variety of color configuration options shown in the screenshot above. In addition to that you can also change the color of any module row under the Backgrounds tab within Vertex. Below is an example of how these color choices work.
Custom Highlight Font
Choose a custom highlight font powered by Google fonts. You can set a custom font for the titles, buttons, and much more. This is used in conjunction with the default site font which is controlled under the Layout tab of Vertex, and controls many other elements as well.
Uppercase Leters
Choose to enable or disable lowercase letters on most menu items, buttons, titles and more.
Menu Sub Text
The S5 Flex Menu gives you the ability to have subtext on each menu item.
Floating Header
As you scroll down the page you will notice that the main header floats with the page. This feature is optional and can be turned off so that the menu always stays at the top of the page.Social Icons
Easily link to a social media site with the built in social icons found in the footer of this template. Simply enter the url of your social site in the configuration and the icon will automatically appear. To disable an icon simply leave the url blank for that particular icon.
