It's a nice place!rushclub wrote:would like to stay there at the moment
On the flip side, I thought it was a nice opportunity to look at the background but then not everyone has time to appreciate the view...Sir Erazor wrote:the site "contact" looks a bit irritating, when i look it the first time: there´s nothing, just the two parts of the accordion (win xp, firefox) - there it would be a good solution, to open the site with the "real" contact at the moment, when opening the page.
I agree with this. from the design perspective the site is a bit of a concoction, at the time I was quite concerned that too many ideas had been involved.Sir Erazor wrote:use a layout, thats through all the pages
An ajax page loader was the solution here combined with the js carousel (teaser) - phpwcms is very flexible. There's no Accordion js enabled on the flat/house pages - just used the same CSS.Jensensen wrote:how was this show article in "main" on "The Flat" made with?
Jensensen wrote:needs JS enabled
sigh... you always pick me up on this Jensensen! If you have JS disabled not much of this site works lol...i don't want to bother you. usually JS is enabled, right you are. just wanted to point out that, if someone (because of search results by a search engine) lands on the page index.php?aid=31.phtml there will be no menu, navigation etc.Dan-G wrote:

Now that is a good point. Can you exclude such articles from searches from within phpwcms or do you have to use robots.txt?Jensensen wrote:if someone (because of search results by a search engine) lands on the page index.php?aid=31.phtml there will be no menu, navigation etc.
This background isn't massive but I would say that you can use your design judgement to use an image that will look good at a huge resolution such as 1920x1080 and also at smaller resolutions where the background gets cropped. The key for me was to make sure that the background image faded to a background color (in this case, black) and to center it using CSS.larmann wrote:Just a little question: I never used a huge background image for the whole site, like you did with the picture of the valley. How can one adjust such an image to different screen sizes so that the site looks alike on my little laptop screen and on the huge desktop screen? Or shouldn't I pay attention to different screen sizes?
Code: Select all
background: url(../../graphics/yourbg.jpg) #000000;
background-position: 50% 0%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;To be more specific what I did was create a set of articles with title, text and photo in a category (e.g. "The House Articles") with blank templates. The carousel was made using a teaser CP (sort by category "The House Articles") with a template to suit the needs of my carousel. The next step was to add the necessary js into the carousel template for the articles to load by ajax. The page you open is under a different category - 'The House' and the article for that page contains the teaser CP and the neccessary code for the ajax. It isn't a full CMS solution but the end result is very clean as there is only one CP with any code and the client has been happily able to do updates.claus wrote:Nice indeed- just had a look again. How did you do that carousel with the detail view? External JS? Is there a possibility to do that with the cms itself too?
