Styles

Styles are variations of a template in Joomla. They let you use a template multiple times with different settings — for example with different colors or logos.

  • Function and Purpose

    Joomla lets you create multiple styles for each template. Each style saves specific template settings. You can then assign a style to individual menu items to change the layout on certain pages.

    Use Cases

    • Color variants: Use different color schemes for different areas of the site.
    • Logo variants: Display different logos on specific pages.
    • Layout adjustments: Adjust module positions or font sizes per style.

    Important Notes

    • Clear naming: Name styles clearly so they’re easy to identify.
    • Inheritance: Some templates inherit settings from one style to another.
    • Menu assignment: Assign styles to menu items deliberately to achieve the desired page layouts.
