I want to create a module position that covers the full screen width so my image slider as no white borders - is this possible - and is responsive

I am using the "T3 B3 Blank" on my test site - http://www.clickandrent.mobi/en and I have been able to create a new module position but it is always a maximum of 12 columns wide with white space at the side - I don't mind altering a global width value to have no white space down the sides or preferrably just the module where I intend to put my slider has to be full screen width.

I am a newbie in the T3 / Joomla world does anyone have a step by step to create a "Full Width Slider" module position below the main menu - I am a seasoned php programmer and RHCE so know my way around systems - but am new to the webprogramming side.

I am looking to do the same as - http://crosstec.de/templatedemos11/ - I tried the crosstec template but it is absolute rubbish, the load times for pages are painfully slow.

Regards
Martyn

I've solved this by deleting $vars[] from the given code. After this I followed these steps to add the position to the list of selectable positions in the module. Hope this helps someone.

Hi Gardner and Francisco,

I followed the instructions given in this thread to create a slideshow that is full width. After loading the block in the layout I get an error on the page which says:

Notice: Undefined index: slideshow in /public/sites/http://www.albro-design.nl/templates/t3_bs3_blank/tpls/blocks/slideshow.php on line 10 " style="T3Xhtml" />

I've also followed the instructions given by Francisco. I'm using Joomla 3.4.8 with the latest T3 Framework package. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Alex,

In this case, you just need to copy the slideshow.php to the folder: templates/t3_bs3_blank/tpls/blocks and the issue could be resolved. As this is new file so the work will not be lost when upgrading with JA Extension Manager.

Regards.

Hello Gardner Luna and Hi Martyn,

Follow the code from Gardner Luna but if you are using latest framework version remember that customizations should be made in local folder to avoid updates over ride.

Hi Martyn,

You want to create a module position that has full width only or you want the whole page to be full width? As in the sample site, I see that the whole page is in full width.

To create a module position that has full width, please follow the instructions below.

1. Create a block by adding an .php file in the folder: templates\t3_bs3_blank\tpls\blocks (example: slideshow.php)
2. Open the slideshow.php file and add slideshow position, here is the sample code:

<?php

/**

 * @package   T3 Blank

 * @copyright Copyright (C) 2005 - 2012 Open Source Matters, Inc. All rights reserved.

 * @license   GNU General Public License version 2 or later; see LICENSE.txt

 */



defined('_JEXEC') or die;

?>



<div class="slideshow">

	<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p($vars['slideshow']) ?>" style="T3Xhtml" />

</div>


<p>Please make sure you done use class "container" as the class is to fix the layout width.</p>

3. Load the block in the layout you want, example we load it in the default layout, so please open the file: templates\t3_bs3_blank\tpls\default.php

<?php $this->loadBlock('slideshow') ?>


4. Create module and assign to the slideshow position and assign to the pages that use default layout

We're done, if you have any trouble, please let me know.

Gardner.
