The "J1.5" namespace is an archived namespace. This page contains information for a Joomla! version which is no longer supported. It exists only as a historical reference, it will not be improved and its content may be incomplete and/or contain broken links.
The original JA Purity template was provided from JoomlArt.com as a zip but the latest files have been installed along with Joomla.
The relevant file, template.css is in the following directory:
templates/ja_purity
css/
template.css
If you've been following the tutorial you can download a tutorial version of the template that installs to the following directory:
templates/my_japurity
css/
template.css
This article will help you alter the height of the header.
You can edit the CSS file directly in your choice of plain text editors such as VI or Notepad or you can use the CSS Editor provided in the Joomla Administration area.
- To use the Joomla editor just log into the Administration area of your site
- Open the Template Manager
- Click on your version of the JA purity template or
- Click the Edit button
- Click the CSS Editor icon in the upper right
- Click the template.css radio button
- Click the Edit button to begin editing template.css
- Near line 921 you will find:
- /* HEADER
- --------------------------------------------------------- */
- #ja-headerwrap {
- background: #333333;
- color: #CCCCCC;
- line-height: normal;
- height: 80px; <---- EDIT THIS
- }
- #ja-header {
- position: relative;
- height: 80px; <---- EDIT THIS
- }
- .ja-headermask {
- width: 602px;
- display: block;
- background: url(../images/header-mask.png) no-repeat top right;
- height: 80px; <---- EDIT THIS
- position: absolute;
- top: 0;
- right: -1px;
- }
- Change the above values to the desired height of the header.
- Finished
Now that you've changed the size of the header you probably want to update the header pictures and the logo to match the new size.
If you prefer to keep the current size of your logo you may want to change it's position.
