Modules Variations

To customize your modules you can use the Class Suffix, in each module you can find somewhere (it depends by the modules but most of the time that field is in the Advacend Options tab), in our case all the class suffix needs to be written with a white space just before type writing, in this way (the light blue color that you could see in this screenshot is a white space leaved before the word "langtab"):

joomla module class suffix

 

You could also use more than one Class Suffix, to mix more module graphic layouts, an example a centered title with borders (you can read about those class just in the part below of the documentation), in the case that you'd like to mix both the classes you'll always need to leave a white space between them, in this way:

General troubleshooting

jQuery Conflicts

When you have installed all the modules and the Vik Content Slider or the calendars of some modules of our extensions are not working properly, might be a jQuery conflict.

Tt means that too many modules are loading a jQuery library, to solve this problem you have to disable all the Load jQuery parameters in all the modules loaded in the page that have this problem, including the Slider module.
