User talk:Rossetti

From Joomla! Documentation

Hi Rossetti,

Thanks for starting the WordPress to Joomla! pages. If I can be any help in getting them completed, please don't hesitate to let me know. I think the pages would be a big help to WordPress users coming to Joomla! or at least giving Joomla! a look.

Hi Tom

Thank for the message - not sure if you will get this - but as we are planning to use screen-shots in the document, I researched inserting images in the document.

At the moment the images goes to the page where image is stored when thumbnail clicked - is it possible to have it opening in a light-box or if not opening an overlayed page with a black background as in the Media-wiki site demos.

This images lend a lot to documentation

Hi Pete, yes I got the notification of reply. It is possible with an extension to do lightbox or modal window. We don't have it installed for a few reasons. Mainly because docs is responsive and whatever size image is inserted will be the max-width of the screen. Also, if someone want to print the doc page, thumbnails aren't too good. You can add link= to the image call and leave it blank. Then clicking the link will not take the user anywhere if they click it.
Let's do this. Create one article with your images and whatever text, bullet points or explanations in between the images. Then we can figure out formatting, make the flow and read right.

Any thing else I can do to get this underway? We can also do screencasts and video embeds on docs. Tom Hutchison (talk) 10:07, 15 June 2014 (CDT)
