The S5 Quick Contact module is a simple way for your visitors to get in contact with you, it is demo'd on the homepage of Photofolio. Sometimes full contact pages are just too much. If you're looking for an easy way to stay in contact with your visitors this module is for you. This module has fully configurable language settings, sends emails to a specified admin account, three ways of spam protection and much more! And of course it's free!

Please note - This module uses the php mail() function. If you are not receiving emails this is a security setting on your server or a spam filter issue. Please contact your hosting provider to resolve this issue. In most cases there will be no issue at all.

Features:

Specify text of error message and field names
Specify height of text area
Set width of all boxes
Validates email address
Include intro text if desired
Set one admin email to receive all emails
3 forms of spam protection:
1. Checks headers for malicious attacks
2. Uses hidden field for spam alert
3. No direct access to file allowed

Photofolio includes some template overrides for the Tienda eCommerce Joomla component so you can setup your site to sell your own photos and create proof sections for your clients. Demo these overrides and the whole setup by clicking the "Portfolio" menu item above. You can download the component here for free, just have to signup for a free account on this site: http://www.dioscouri.com/. All the overrides we include are all controlled by CSS so you can easily change height, width etc of the category or even item list images.

The below screenshot displays the category list page that we have modded to give you a nice clean layout for navigation between the categories of photos you may have for sale. The arrows on the screenshot are just to show the flexibility of the layout and design:
Layout file used: Category_Page.php (select in category admin of Tienda)

The following screenshot is an image of the item list page overrides. They are geared for a photographers website to allow the administrator to list his photos for sale on one page where a user can quickly just hover and add to cart and also click the image to enlarge for preview:
Layout file used: Photo_List_Page.php (select in category admin of Tienda)

How to setup your site with Photofolio and Tienda:
1. First you'll need to have Photofolio and Tienda installed.

2. Once they are and you have some categories and products setup. Go to the admin of your categories. For the demo we set the store up as follows by adding to main categories "Photos for Sale" and "Client Photos". Photos for sale anyone can buy and purchase client photos are only meant for the clients to view only.

3. In order to have your client view only a certain category you must make their login username the exact category name. For the Photofolio we've created to demo logins so you can test this out. Try the following logins to see how only the category referencing the client name shows up:

To view Abraham and Sarah's Photos click login at the top of this page and use the following:
un: Abraham and Sarah
pw: password

To view Michelle and Paul's Photos click login at the top of this page and use the following:
un: Michelle and Paul
pw: password

Here is how we setup the demo with the corresponding template overrides available with Photofolio

- Photos for Sale (assigned with Category_Page.php)
- - Outdoor Shots (assigned with Photo_List_Page.php)
- - Night Shots (assigned with Photo_List_Page.php)
- - My Beach Photos (assigned with Photo_List_Page.php)
- - Flower Shots (assigned with Photo_List_Page.php)

- Client Photos (assigned with Category_Page_Loggedin.php)
- - Abraham and Sarah (assigned with Photo_List_Page_Loggedin.php)
- - Michelle and Paul (assigned with Photo_List_Page_Loggedin.php)

The following image shows where you select the template overrides in Tienda, just open up any admin to a Tienda category and you'll see the following:

4. After you have done the above: created categories, assigned the template override files to them (and if you need to have a private section for each client) created the usernames that are exactly the same as the category names in the client only area then you should be good to go! If you need any help feel free to ask on the forum. And lastly check out the S5 Tienda Bulk Import plugin that is also included with this template release. It will aid in the upload of 100's of photos if need be.

The S5 Box can be demo'd by clicking on either the Login or Register buttons found towards the top of this page.

The module allows for up to 10 different S5 Box's on one page all via 10 module positions. You simply add a class to any HTML element on your site and enable the corresponding box and you are good to go!

To enable the login and register modules:

1. Install the S5 Box module and publish it to all pages on your site. Try to publish it to a position where a module already exists on all pages, but don't worry it won't change the layout of your site, the script is automatically hidden on your site.

2. Install and publish the S5 Register module to the 'register' module position

3. Publish the default Joomla login module to the 'login' module position.

4. In your template parameters area of Joomla you can change the text for login, register and logout.

5. That's it, you're all done!

The S5 Box runs off of the jQuery Javascript library in a no conflictions mode so you should not receive any problems with other third party extensions you may be running on your site.

Features:

Powered by no conflict mode jQuery Javascript
Choose, elastic, fade or none for the popup effect
Up to 10 S5 Box's throughout your site or on any one page!
Set the percentage of width of each box according to overall screen size

Tutorial on how to get the s5 box working and use all 10 module positions it includes

1. Adding the S5 Box positions:

Open up the templateDetails.xml file included with the template you are using.
Locate the positions area.
Start adding new positions s5_box1, s5_box2, s5_box3, etc all the way up to s5_box10.

2. Adding the S5 Box classes:

The S5 Box class name of the corresponding position must be added to the link that will open the box. For example the following code will display a link that says Click Here and will open the S5 Box and display whatever module is published to the s5_box3 module position:
These classes can be added to any element, ie: divs, spans, etc., but the common use will be to add this into content with a link similar to the one shown in the picture above. To enter this link you must do so from the HTML edit screen on your content editor:

Once you have clicked the HTML button the HTML code window will appear much like the first image.
You can continue adding these classes throughout your site just be sure to have published a module to the corresponding position or the box will not work correctly. So if you add the class s5box_two you will also have to publish a module to the s5_box2 position.
Module positions and their corresponding classes:

s5_box1 = s5box_one
s5_box2 = s5box_two
s5_box3 = s5box_three
s5_box4 = s5box_four
s5_box5 = s5box_five
s5_box6 = s5box_six
s5_box7 = s5box_seven
s5_box8 = s5box_eight
s5_box9 = s5box_nine
s5_box10 = s5box_ten

3. Lastly, publish your modules to the S5 Box positions:

Now that you have added the s5 box positions just go to your site modules area and publish modules to those positions
Make sure that you have added a class to an HTML element as described above or the s5 box will have no activation button
Also make sure to publish the actual s5 box to a non s5 box position, perhaps publish it to the "debug" position or a similar one in your template.

Main S5 Box Module Settings:

In the backend of the S5 Box module you can adjust the width of each box independent of each other.
Make sure that the S5 Box module is published to all pages, it can be published to any template position. Also make sure that the module opening in the box is published to the page the link is on.
