Change a template background color in Joomla Website?




Joomla is a robust software that has been built using PHP language. However PHP knowledge is not required to download and install it onto your server. Once you do install it you may have the need to change the look and feel of the website. This should be possible by changing the layout of the site. The layout you select might be either an instant one or one specially crafted according to your prerequisites. While the ready-made one is easy to install the custom one will require the help of professional website developer. Silicon Valley is one such professional web development company.

With a ready-made there are several options that are configurable; thus the website can be configured further. The setup incorporates shade of the Website and in addition the alternative of moving a few modules around or flipping them. The custom made templates also have the option of changing color but it is usually not configurable from the departmental section. Instead you will need to access the CSS files or image files depending on the type of the website.

Here is a quick explanation of how you can go about changing the colors of your website:

The extent to which you can make changes depends on whether your website is using the CSS or images for the colored part. If it is using the CSS you will need to edit style sheet located in your CSS directory and for images you will need to change the images in the images folder. This can be done via Photoshop or some other similar graphical editing software.

As for the CSS file; you will find it your templates folder like templates/<your theme>/CSS. First download this file and then load it in your favourite editor. It is possible the CSS applied via browser addons. Thus simply find them, change the corresponding option in the CSS file. Once he changes are made you will need to upload file. Refresh your website to find the changes.

In case your website is using images you will need to edit the images of your device. These images will be located in the images directory within your device. You can login to the web server via FTP and download all the images concerned. It is likely that the templates also contains a PSD file. If so, you can edit this file in the graphics software Photoshop to change the detail and then upload them back on to the web server via FTP.
