the gantry tutorial.. 11 months 4 weeks ago #47372

I am trying to follow the gantry tutorial at www.ostraining.com/blog/joomla/gantry/.
On localhost ( wamp server) i have a new joomla 2.5 install,
and i installed the rt_gantry-3.2.19-bundle successfully ( with all green install notes).
i don't see where the column widths are controlled in my install.

i've searched high and low for this interface that allows the features dealt with in that tut... i've also installed sample data, What am i missing
Thanks in advance

Hi Edward,

There isn't a control for fixing column widths unless you modify the template. You can choose how many columns you want a module postition to cover and the realtive sites in the Layouts section.

Cheers,
Ed

i don't have that layout section. what i do have is editable files.
where is the layout section supposed to be? do i need to have installed another template to see layout options of it? here is a snapshot of the current template manager panels...

Hi Ed,

Click on rt_gantry template and you will see 8 tabs listed out. The 5th tab should show as "Layouts".

If you do not see that, please take a screenshot and show us what you see on your end. :-)
Warm Regards,

Tessa Mero

Hi Ed,

In Template Manager, place a check-mark next to the template then click "Edit" (button in the top right). Hopefully that should work better for you.

Kind regards,
Nick
