How to use the Shortcodes
Shortcodes are a really important Part of this Template. In the following Video we describe some Ways how to work best with the Shortcodes.
Setup the Main Menu
For the Main Menu simply use the default Joomla Menu, place it at the Moduleposition menu and check the advanced Tab. There you will find a alternative Layout called main-menu, choose this, save, and you're done.
Embedding Google Fonts to the Template
Embedding Google Fonts is really easy. We have created here a small Tutorial how it works with this Template. A few simple Clicks and it's done. We choose this Method of embedding cause everytime Google Fonts are updated you can always choose the newest Fonts without having to wait for a Update.
How to include Favicons
Include Favicons for all Devices is really no hard thing since the Real Favicon Generator was released. Simply Upload one Image, do some Settings and copy and paste the Code to the Template Area. 2 Minutes and you're done.
