: Bootstrap Versions : thcinc September 14, 2014, 09:00:51 PM Hi,
Here's the background.... I am setting up a real estate site with a component that comes with it's own joomla template, but I wanted to use a Shape5 template for my client so their new company could have the sweetest of styles. The component/modules alone do not at all reflect the demo template they offer with it, so in order to have their component look like the demo I needed to added their demo template's css, /html and javascript folder into my oasis template's custom.css file etc. I figured that I did not need to add call functions to their bootstrap files since my oasis template already operates on bootstrap. Then I figured out that the component's layout conflicts are because they are different versions. My component's demo template was built around bootstrap 2.3.1 and my oasis template is 2.1. When I add call functions to their bootstrap files, it resolves a couple responsive issues with their component but blows up heading font sizes and a couple other things with our oasis template. Now for the questions... Is there a reason oasis is running on 2.1? I noticed some Shape5 changes to one of the bootstrap files... can I just add those changes to the 2.3.1 file, upgrade and be good to go? I am guessing that my headings might still be affected? Other than this, the site is coming along nice and looks awesome thanks to our favorite template club. ;) I would truly appreciate it if you could advise me on this matter. Thanks for your help : Re: Bootstrap Versions : mikek September 15, 2014, 06:41:58 AM Hello,
We don't use the whole bootstrap library, only the css itself. The rest of bootstrap, ie: js files are completely outputted by Joomla itself. We don't use bootstrap at all in in our designs. The only reason it is included is to stylize any core Joomla pages that use the Joomla classes; other than that we don't use it. You maybe able to over-write files, but doubtful. Bootstrap is not intended to be used as it is by default. Any template or component or extension that uses it would have modified the css to make it work within the design. Our files have several edits to allow it to work correctly within a Joomla environment. |
