Hi there,
This may have been asked umpteen times, but I couldn't find it on the forum. So here goes:

I disabled the loading of Bootstrap CSS and JS in the JEvents Configuration screen. However, when I inspected the Page Source, I noticed these lines:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/[*]/media/com_jevents/css/bootstrap.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/[*]/media/com_jevents/css/bootstrap-responsive.css" type="text/css" />

Does this mean the Config Screen Bootstrap disable function doesn't work? I want to do my own styling using my own Bootstrap 3 template, and loading an extra Bootstrap 2 css file will be a sure way to failure.
OR: Does that mean JEvents is incompatible with Bootstrap 3? If it is, any way out?

Thanx,


Thom
Hello,

Please can you post your JEvents Support Info?

I suspect you are using the filter module and that has been set to load the bootstrap.

Thanks
Tony

Wow, Tony... don't work yourself to a burnout. It is 11 p.m. after all :-)
But thanks for getting back to me.

This is the site: as you can see it is still in its test phase: http://chjc.nl.testbyte.nl/ At the bottom you see the "JEvents Latest Events"

Thanx,


Thom
PS: should you need access to the administrator side or even ftp to have a closer look, just say so.

Hey Tony,

You can go to bed now, at least as far as I'm concerned Problem solved!! Of course I need to go through your Bootstrap CSS files to see anything I may need. I'm using LESSCSS to generate my CSS so I would want to incorporate anything that is useful from your Bootstrap CSS.

Is the CSS really tweaked to fit your needs? Would there be documentation for it, so I can read about the reasoning behind your writing your own CSS? Is it only necessary for Bootstrap 2?

As I said I'm still in the planning stages and since the client has rather elaborate specs for their events/calendar module, I still need to find out if JEvents is what best suits the site.

So far your quick response and spot on solution gives me confidence. I wish more extension developers would give the level of support.

So thanx a lot!


Thom

Thanks for your kind words!

I'll incorporate an override in the module for JEvents 3.4 - if the JEvents global setting is NOT to load bootstrap then the module will not either.
