What is a Template?

joomla support cheshire manchester merseyside north west ukA TEMPLATE is an extension which enables you to control the Look and Feel of your website.

A Template includes one or more STYLE SHEETS.

A WYNCHCO Template Design comprises:

  • Three STYLE SHEETS (each containing many STYLES),
  • PLUS a compendium of more than 100 CUSTOM STYLE SETS (organised into groups).

Each group of CUSTOM Style Sets can be changed:

  • quickly and easily,
  • without any technical know-how, and
  • without having to edit any code

via your website's Dashboard.

In short, you can change the Look & Feel of your website with just a few simple clicks!

We show you how in this Joomla! User Guide.
