    Hello guys, i need you guys to kindly take a look at the code on my site and recommend a way to modify the template.

    What i need to achieve is having the image rotator appear only on the homepage. Right now it shows on all pages.

    I have spent a significant amount of time customizing the template to suit my need, so i'd rather not change it, and this is the only thing left to fix.

    Thank you.

    lol

    it shows in all pages because YOU put it in all pages!

    Just remove that code from all other pages what works to show image rotator (You may need to remove that js too)...

    Cheers,

    @sanchyclub
    i did not write the code for this template, and i am not exactly an expert with codes, thats why i have asked for help with it.
    i know its not exactly difficult to do, i was just hoping someone with some more experience would point out a more specific code to either get rid of entirely or modify.

    @others
    i'll pay to fix it only if need be. we have forums like this to help each other out with issues like this, so i'll appreciate that option for now.

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
    $j(function(){
    $j("#faded").faded({
    speed:5000,// 900,
    crossfade: true,

    @ st-kris, never pay anyone for such small changes

    someone charging money for small changes, is either a shark or is just after yr hard earned money

    @pennywise711, thanks for your input. However, on the back end, it looks as though i only have access to the index.php folder. i can't seem to locate the codes for the other pages.

    Hi,

    Just took a look at your website. I'm afraid you guys have been looking at this from the wrong angle. A simple check of the source code clearly shows that this is a Joomla! website meaning you need to log into the back end of the site to make changes plus they'll be easier to make than editing code. To log into the back end of the website, you need to visit: [www] ceevisionz [com] /administrator/ (Remove the spaces and brakcets) in your web browser. You'll have an admin username and password.

    After authentication, you will be greated by the Joomla! CMS which allows easy editing. I'd advise you to check with the template provider as to whether the image rotator is added via an extension or whether it is coded into the template. Generally an extension is used and if this is the case you can simply click on the module manager and select the pages you wish it to be shown upon. However, if its coded into the template, you'd need to click on the template manager and update the files with the advice above using the editor.

    If you need any further advice, please feel free to ask.

    Kind Regards,

    Ally McInnes.

    Surely its a bit harsh to say that someone willing to take on a relatively small job is a shark. Lets face it, thousands of simple jobs can be found on People Per Hour, Freelancer and other such sites and people are perfectly happy to pay fairly. The fact is a lot of people don't have the time and/or knowhow to do some jobs so they pay those who do.

    Cheers,

    Ally

    @simplisticdesigns
    thanks for your input, but as i said earlier, the problem is that the template is only editable through its index.php in joomla's back end. if i delete the rotator code from there, it goes away entirely from the template. i need it on the home page, so i was hoping there is a part of that code on the same page that dictates where it shows up, and then i can edit that part.

    No problem. OK so can you comfirm that the image rotator is NOT a module found in the extensions manager and is indeed only coded via the template itself? 99.9% of features including image rotators are extensions so its pretty odd to have something like this coded into the template in such a way.

    Thanks,

    Ally
