The template is accompanied by a series of menu systems which are outlined below:-

Menu Types

Please click the links in the list below to load the various menu styles.

• Fusion Menu - Fusion Menu, an advanced dropdown based CSS menu. It supports both mootools powered transition and animation enhancements for its dropdown.
• SplitMenu - A static menu system that displays submenu items outside of the main horizontal menu (typically in the side columns but invariably underneath the menu bar).
• Toolbar - An option in the template to disable the inbuilt menu systems and replace it with the toolbar module position. This is not demoed.
• No Menu Bar - This options disables / collapses the entire inbuilt menu system and the toolbar module position.

The menu type used is set via template configuration at Extensions → Template Manager → rt_infuse_j15 → Menu Type. Select your desired menu type from the dropdown and save. Also, the various mootools effects of Fusion Menu can also be configured in the template manager.

Fusion Menu

Fusion is javascript-based dropdown menu system, with extensive functionality. The menu itself is built on the rewritten core of the latest revision of RokNavMenu, the core application behind all RocketTheme menus.

Fusion offers a series of new abilities ranging from Menu Icons, Subtext support and much greater controls over the Multiple Column ability for dropdowns.

Template Configuration

You can configure Fusion Menu at Extensions → Template Manager → rt_infuse_j15 and you will find all parameters under the Menu Configuration Options heading. A preview of these options can be seen in the adjacent screenshot.

Menu Icons

Fusion has support for individual menu icons for its dropdown menu items. These images are loaded from the /templates/rt_infuse_j15/images/menus/ directory where you will find 31 images by default.

To setup a Menu Icon, go to Menu → Mainmenu → Select/Create a Menu Item. Locate the Menu Image field in Parameters (Template theme - infuse-fusion) and select an image from the dropdown.

 

Subtext

Subtext is the term used to describe the secondary text placed underneath the menu title.

To add your own Subtext, go to Menu → Mainmenu → Select/Create a Menu Item. Locate the Subtext field in Parameters (Template theme - infuse-fusion) and insert your desired text.

   

Multiple Dropdown Columns

Fusion has the facility for dynamic column control for its dropdown. You can choose between single (1) or double (2) column modes for children of every single menu item via configuration.

To control the number of columns of each menu item, go to Menu → Mainmenu → Select/Create a Menu Item. Locate the Columns of Children field in Parameters (Template theme - infuse-fusion) and choose either 1 or 2.

     

Dynamic Child Direction

Typically, a dropdown menu column will extend beyond the width of the browser window if you have enough child levels. However, with Fusion, the menu detects the width of the browser and will change the direction of menu pullouts so all menu items are visible without the need to scroll.

How to create Child / Sublevel menu items in Joomla

In order for menu dropdowns in Moomenu and Suckerfish, and the dropline / side column items of Splitmenu to appear, you need to setup parent and child menu items.

• Login into the Joomla administrator
• Go to Menu → Menu Name
• Select a menu item that you wish to be in the dropdown
• Locate the Parent Item form
• Select the menu item that you wish for your item to appear under
• Save

Perform the same task for all menu items that you wish to be child items.

You can control the style options of the Infuse template from the Joomla administrator template manager. Here you can choose from one of the Preset Style combinations, or create your own Custom preset all from the administrator.

The options are as follows, and the areas that they control are indicative in their name:-

• Header Style: Full, Standard or Simple
• Body Style: Style 1 to Style 6

Creating your own Preset Styles

• Login to the Joomla Administrator
• Go to Extensions → Template Manager → rt_infuse_j15
• Set Preset Style to Custom
• Choose your desired style options
• Hit Custom Style in the top right button menu
• Copy the code from the Custom Style Output box.
• Go to /templates/rt_infuse_j15/styles.php
• Edit the code between array() with your copied code block
• Save and upload

What is RocketLauncher?

RocketLauncher is a Joomla installation package that installs Joomla as the demo. The launcher installs the sample data, which has been customised to match the demo, and the template, extensions and images are already built in. The launcher is the best method to replicate the demo with ease.

Due to the complexity of our demos, it is much easier to see it in action then it is to read in written tutorials and / or viewing screenshots. Therefore, the process of using the template on your Joomla site is much faster, simpler and makes for a better experience.

Version

We use the latest Joomla version available at the time for our launchers and when Joomla updates, we proceed to update all the launchers so they are up to date for all new downloads. Please go to the Joomla Downloads repository to see what version the RocketLauncher is using.

For information on upgrading Joomla, please see: http://docs.joomla.org

If you are a Mac user and develop in a localhost environment, you will want to use Terminal to update your Joomla as it is the fastest and simplest way to update locally on a Mac.

This guide covers the basics of installing a template.

Downloading the necessary files

To install the template, you only need one file:-

• Infuse Template rt_infuse_j15.tgz - This is the template file that you use to install into Joomla.

There are other files that you may wish to download that accompany the release, but are not required for the template to work.

• Infuse Source PNG(s) infuse-sources.zip - This contains all the Adobe Fireworks PNG source files for the template, and if applicable, the logo font.
• Infuse Extensions infuse-extensions-j15.zip - This package contains all the extensions that accompany the template release.
• Infuse RocketLauncher Joomla_RT_Infuse_j15.zip - The RocketLauncher pack is a full Joomla install that contains all the demo content, including extensions and the template.

Step 1 - Using the Joomla installer

• Login into the Joomla administrator (http://yoursite.com/administrator)
• Go to Extensions → Install/Uninstall
• Select the browse button and find rt_infuse_j15.tgz
• Click Upload & Install

The template is now installed.

Step 2 - Making Infuse Default

• Login into the Joomla administrator (http://yoursite.com/administrator)
• Go to Extensions → Template Manager
• Find rt_infuse_j15.tgz
• Select the radio icon to its left
• Click Default in the top right button menu

The template is now default and will appear as your site theme.

Demo Content

We have a forum based tutorial outlining the syntax we use in constructing the frontpage elements of the Infuse demo.

Configuration

To configure the template, go to Extensions → Template Manager → rt_infuse_j15. There you will find a list of all the template parameters. You can control many aspects of the template here. If you mouseover the labels/names of each parameter, a description will appear via tooltip to outline what each parameter does.

IE6 PNG Fix

The template has an integrated PNG fix for IE6 that allows transparent PNG32 images to show, as intended, in the IE6 browser. All you need to do is add class="png" to the element such as the change in the following examples:-

<img src="images/sample1.png" alt="sample" />

Change to

<img src="images/sample1.png" alt="sample" class="png" />

This is a listing of all the extensions that accompany the template release.

This tutorial page features all the typography available with the template, showcasing them in HTML form. If you wish to use the RokCandy format, which is WYSIWYG friendly, please go to the RokCandy Typography page.

Important Emphasis Styles

Typography is a fundamental part of a template, providing you with the tools to characterise your content and bring it to life. There is a vast array of typography available with this template, as is with our previous releases, from list styles, notice blocks and a diverse number of other elements.

There are 2 methods in which to implement the typography into your Joomla content:-

1. HTML Mode: This is the traditional approach for implementing typography as used in the pre-2009 templates / demos, were you had to use HTML coding / syntax for the typography. This presents two main problems: the Joomla WYSIWYG editor is notorious for stripping out HTML so could easily remove your formatted article and no typography; secondly, using HTML for typography may present a problem for certain users who are unaccustomed to HTML and coding.
   
   
2. RokCandy Mode: The RokCandy component from RocketTheme allows you to implement typography easily, without fear of the WYSIWYG editor ruining your formatting and allows you, and/or your clients to add them to your content with ease. This is through a method similar to BBcode (as seen in a forum). WYSIWYG friendly syntax can be used, or even custom configured that will transform a set snippet to the correct HTML when it is parsed by Joomla.

Why use RokCandy?

RokCandy is the ideal solution for those with limited coding skills or those who implement our templates for their clients. It is free from the WYSIWYG editors horrific filtering habits and can be easily pre-configured for your personal needs or the needs of your client.

RokCandy Example

The RokCandy Typography button is created by using the following syntax with RokCandy:-

[readon1 url="/typography/rokcandy-examples"]RokCandy Typography[/readon1]

However, if we were to use HTML, the following code would be required:-

<div class="clr"></div>

<div class="readon-wrap1">
	<div class="readon1-l"></div>
	<a class="readon-main" href="/typography/rokcandy-examples">
		<span class="readon1-m">
			<span class="readon1-r">RokCandy Typography</span>
		</span>
	</a>
</div>

<div class="clr"></div>

As you can see, the RokCandy version is a lot easier to use.

What is SEO?

SEO, or Search Engine Optimisation, is the term used for improving your site in relation to your search engine ranking. Your placement in the search engine index is essential to your flow of traffic. The vast majority of mainstream sites will receive traffic directly from search engines such as Google. The higher your ranking / placement in these indexes, the greater the flow of traffic.

For example, if you are an Electrician in Miami, Florida, and someone googled electrician miami and you hold the #1 spot in Google, it is most likely that person will visit your site. Most searchers are going to browse the first few sites in Google and not others. Therefore, you want to be placed in this bracket.

How is AdultMG Optimised?

Although most of your optimisation will be with your keywords and content, the site itself can play a role in making your site more search engine friendly. The structure of the template, as with all our sites from April 2009 onwards, are constructed in an atypical fashion which places the main column before the left and right column. Therefore, as the main column loads the vast majority of your content and component, it is logical to assume that this is where your most important data is collated. Subsequently, you will want Google to crawl that first before moving on to the other elements.
