Description
The descriptions for RokTwittie echo the name of the parameter and are self explanatory. However, elaboration of a few key parameters is useful in understanding.
The Twitter Login and Twitter Password options do not need to be filled in order for the module to work. However, Twitter has a maximum of 100 hits in their API so if you have high traffic activity related to the module, you may wish to fill this out. However, entering the username field beneath login and password will allow it to work.
You can load multiple usernames for tweets and searches by separating them by a comma in the various fields.
The options provide you with incredible control over what to display, and are subdivided into sections such as username tweets and search tweets. The frontpage has some of these options disabled but to the left, you should see the module when fully activated.

IE6 PNG Fix
- Detalles
- Visto: 16908
What is the PNGfix?
If you have ever opened a webpage with a transparent PNG in Internet Explorer 6, you will see an obvious problem. The images do not appear transparent but adopt a light blue background, which is unsightly to say the least. This is the purpose of the PNGfix, to allow transparent PNG images to work correctly in the web browser Internet Explorer 6. A common way around this is to use a range of different Joomla! extensions which can be applied to your site. However, this is already built in to new RocketTheme templates (the fix already provides other solutions to various other IE6 issues). The author of this new PNGfix is Drew Diller.[readon url="http://www.dillerdesign.com/experiment/DD_belatedPNG/"]Learn More[/readon]
Below is a list of all the Rocket Theme Templates which have the PNGfix described above, incorporated into it. Also, all new templates releases will contain this as it has become an recurrent feature.
- Refraction
- SolarSentinel
- Mynxx
- Meridian
- Akiraka
- Mixxmag
How do I use the PNGfix?
To apply the PNGfix to a particular image, all you need to do is add a class, png. We have an example of image HTML code below:-<img src="image.png" alt="Image" />
Now add class="png" to the code such as:-
<img src="image.png" alt="Image" class="png" />
[span class=alert]Uninstall all other PNGfixes before using the template version, that includes plugins you may have installed into Joomla as they will conflict with the template fix[/span]
How to remove the PNGfix
If you wish to remove the PNGfix from the template, you have to remove the file and remove the reference from the rt_head_includes.php file. The file is called DD_belatedPNG.js and is located in the /templates/rt_refraction_j15/js directory. You would then remove the following from the rt_head_includes.php file:-<script src="<?php echo $this->baseurl; ?>/templates/<?php echo $this->template?>/js/DD_belatedPNG.js"></script> <script> DD_belatedPNG.fix('.png'); </script>
