Unlimited color options! Select colors and make your template unique! This is useful if you want to match the main template color with your company logo or brand. All our templates come with several pre-defined color schemes.

To get to the parameters in your Joomla Admin go to: Extensions > Template Manager and click on the template name. Beside many other parameters, here you can select colors. The template colors can be selected using a handy palette tool or entered manually in hexadecimal format (combination of 6 letters and numbers). If you don't have Photoshop, Fireworks or similar application, Color Combos can help you to find out the hexadecimal code of your color.

Change few options in template parameters and... Boom! You got template with completely new experience!

Newer versions of Joomla (after 1.6) have a nice new feature in template manager. It's possible to save multiple template styles! If you are using a template that has many parameters (like our templates), and you wish to use different template settings for Page A and Page B, it's now possible. Please read Joomla template styles from our Blog to learn more about this.

We are witnesses of the flood of responsive web sites. Those sites are made to be useful on all kind of devices, from desktop computers to mobile phones. It's not enough to have only a template that's responsible. If you are about to use modules on the responsive website, those modules must be responsive as well. Hot Film Tape is on of such modules because it supports the responsive mode. In this mode, this module automatically resizes itself in order to fit the available screen space as good as possible. If you are not a fan of responsive websites, you can turn this feature off in the module settings.

So, what Hot Film Tape does and what's its purpose for your site. Let's explain that in several sentences. This is endless carousel that scrolls slides from right to left. You can have up to 20 slides (it easy to modify the module to extend it's capacity though) and each slide is presented as a "slot" in the module parameters. Each slot can contain any HTML content that you enter using WYSIWYG editor (such as JCE or TinyMCE) or using plain text editor (if you are familiar with HTML). Therefore, each slot can contain literally anything you can think of. You can put text, images, YouTube movies or anything else inside the slides. You can even make combination, in example, the first slot with text, the second with image, the third with a movie and the fourth with text and images. Content of the Hot Film Tape is completely up to you.

All buyers of Hot Church.ly template will get Hot Film Tape module FREE (regular price is $15).
