Flex - Perfect for content-rich sites! |
An introduction to Flex
If you have been looking for a sleek, fast loading Joomla template that is flexible enough to manage diverse content and do it well and with ease, then Flex is template for you. This release is even more promising and full of great new features and enhancements.
- Flexbility and versatility
- Flex is a fluid width template that is designed to be extremely flexible. Loads of new features have been added to this template release from JoomlaJunkie, making this our most versatile work to date. Features such as, 10 module positions, browser options comprising of 4 colors and 3 various font sizes, a fully collapsible 3 module footer shelf, detailed typography styling as on the demo page will get you started, read on for more amazing features included in this template.
- Fantastic features
- The most exciting feature of this template is the use of a unique mambot (developed by Open4G) before it was launched to the Joomla! community. This mambot creates a framework within Joomla! for running web2.0 type components using ajax and javascript. This allows us to run several JQuery scripts within one website. You can read more about the JXCORE Jquery mambot for Joomla here.
- Search Engine Optimization
- As with all JoomlaJunkie's templates thus far, Flex is fully optimized for SEO. The 4 level Suckerfish menu system allows you to deploy an SEO hungry website by creating a complex set of menu links for them to spider. This also makes it a lot easier to manage the content on your website, with the ability to really utilize the power of Joomla's sections and categories method of handling content.
- Improvements
- We have worked hard to improve our template guide and CSS. Even if you are new to CSS, you will know that well structured code makes your life so much easier. All our code has been refined to be easier to work with and commented to be self explanatory to assist even the newest CSS user.
- Out of the box
- A large focus with Flex was to make it an "out of the box" template that is super easy to setup and configure. Tightly integrated code allows you to get up and running in around 5 minutes after install, depending on your Joomla! experience of course.
- New look
- Last but not least, notice the attention to detail and the extra styling to the search results page and the contact us page which make the template a little different from the normal Joomla! look. Another great little extra is the addition of 3 module positions above the main content that can be used to notify, alert or offer help to your website visitors. You can get a better idea of how these work in the demo page for Flex.
