Hi everyone
I've a problem with R.B.S.E. and all template created by Artisteer 4.0 theme generator.
In position debug does not work.
In position-1 he fades the entire page
The sample it visibile here:
/link removed/

A .zip archive with "index.php" and "templateDetails.xml" of Artisteer template can be download from:
/link removed/

Thanks so much for your answer!

Hi Emiliano,

you should change the following in your index.php:

between
<body> (line 55)
and
<div id="art-main"> (line 57)

you should add the following:
<div>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="extrobgs" />
</div>

So it should read:
<body>
<div>
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="extrobgs" />
</div>
<div id="art-main">




In your templateDetails.xml file, you should add

<position>extrobgs</position>

in the <positions> section (line 31 to 57)

Now you can publish the eXtro Background Slider in the module position 'extrobgs'


Finally, you need to edit your CSS file :

Edit your template.css file, in line 1, you can find the ID #art-main , this ID has a background color of #2C4D63 , change this color to transparent .

Now you should see the eXtro Background Slider correctly in the background.

Hi everybody,

I wanted to use this opportunity to answer some general questions regarding the eXtro Background Slider:

If you're using the eXtro BGS in a template that uses relative or absolute positioning for its content, there may be some issues which are template related.

The background slider is designed to be in the page background (as its name says). Now when the template uses relative or absolute positioning, the content gets 'overlayed' over the background. If this template additionally assigns a background color to its content, the background slider (which is now 'under/behind' the content) cannot be seen any more. In this case, you must set the content background color to transparent.

On the other hand, if you use a module position with high HTML nesting, the eXtro Background Slider might be in the foreground, because the module position is nested too deep, and the content in this case is 'behind' the background slider.

Generally, its a good idea to create a optimized module position like described in our tutorial (www.extro-media.de/en/tutorial-extrobgs-en.html). If the background slider is invisible in this case, chances are high that your content uses relative/absolute positioning in combination with a background color. Set this background color to transparent, and everything should be ok.
