Questions on Converting
written by CJ, April 06, 2008

In the article above you mentioned that there is a way to convert the free templates from the freecsstemplates.com site. I am new to Joomla and have no clue as to how to do this. Is there anyway you can explain it to a less technical person like me? Thanks, CJ

Converting

It doesn't actually say there is a way to convert a free template (implied html / CSS) to a joomla template, he suggests you give it a go. To convert an existing template to Joomla you need to convert the layout and CSS styling into a series of files joomla will understand. If you take a shot at producing a basic template for joomla (see heaps of joomla templates tutorials available), you'll find out how content layout and styling are combined in Joomla via templates. You can then take the free template you want and convert it to a joomla template. There are also a number of sites which will take a HTML/CSS style template and convert it to joomla for you. For example http://orewapalms.co.nz/ is a site which comes as a sample html/CSS layout in Dreamweaver MX - we took this layout and converted it to a joomla template. By creating a table layout php / html files and adjusting the existing style sheet into template.css for use with joomla. Give basic template building a go start with a table template and then move to tableless and you'll find it interesting and useful Have fun
