Let's take a look before at the DJ-Catalog2 component configuration. Click the Options button which is located on the top-right toolbar and you will see the popup window:



General Settings

Theme settings


  • Theme – choose component's theme. To start creating your own theme, create /components/com_djcatalog2/themes/YOUR_THEME/ folder and copy css folder from /components/com_djcatalog2/themes/default/ to YOUR_THEME folder. It is not required to copy js folder nor any other files from default folder, unless you will be making changes in the component's JavaScript. From now, you can alter the CSS code within your own theme.
Do not remove or modify the default folder!
  • Use Theme CSS – when disabled, no CSS files from any (selected nor default) theme will be included. Useful if you wich to style the component on your own, within your Joomla! template. It will also prevent responsive CSS files from being loaded
  • Responsive support – it will add CSS media queries for mobile devices
  • Include Bootstrap CSS – disable this option if your template or website has its own CSS Bootstrap implementation. Otherwise this option might have to be enabled and Joomla! core CSS will be used.
