Hi there,

I just purchased S5 Box but cannot seem to get it working on the Design Control template.  When I click the 'Register' link on home page, I just standard Joomla Registration page.  I have followed all instructions as best I can but cannot seem to get it to work. 

I have downloaded both S5 Box module and S5 register module.  I have published S5 box to Bottom_Row_3_1 where an existing module is currently published.  I have assigned S5 Box module to 'All' menu links.

I have published S5 register module to 'register' position  and also assigned it to 'All' menu links.

I have tried both CSS and JQuery options in S5 Box configuration, but nothing I do seems to get it to work. :-( What am I missing?

I would really appreciate some guidance as to what might be wrong?

Thanks

Hello,

Since this is a free template we didn't build in the register class which is needed for s5box to function. You would need to open up the index.php file and look for:

Code:
<a id="s5_register" href="/component/users/?view=registration"> <?php echo $s5_register;?> </a>

Then replace it with the following:

Code:
<a id="s5_register" class="s5box_register">
<?php echo $s5_register;?>
</a>

Hi Jonah,

Thank you very much for prompt response.  Pardon my ignorance, but can I confirm it is the index.php in the Design Control template folder that needs to be modified?

In that index.php, I can't seem to find the exact code you suggested.  The closest I found was this...

<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_users&view=registration'); ?>" id="s5_register">

<?php echo $s5_register ?>

[/url]

Is this the code I need to replace?

Thanks in advance

James

Hi Jonah,

Unfortunately, when I replace the code as suggested above, it breaks my website i.e. when I go to home page, I get

HTTP 500 error
That?s odd... the website can?t display this page

Could you please double check the code you provided is correct?  

I actually thought I needed this module to make the register function work on the Design Control website, but I realise that it can work without it - albeit the standard Joomla page.  I am happy to keep the S5_Box extension if I can get it to work, but if it gets too hard, I can do without it.  Could we look at a refund if we can't get it working?

Thanks in advance
