Often times, the Support Team sees questions involving Members who want to know how certain elements are configured within the demo versions of our JATC/JMTC Templates and Themes. Many times, if you’ve just begun developing your site and you haven’t yet entered any (or too much) content, then the quickest/easiest way to get a "clone" of the demo version is to utilize the QUICKSTART installation process.
But what if you’ve already put in a good deal of time into your site and/or have already entered a good deal of content that you do not want to lose/wipe out through starting over from scratch -- yet you still need to know how to configure certain elements as you see them within our demo versions? There is a handy solution for this . . . JoomlArt’s DEMO BUILDER. Utilizing JA’s DEMO BUILDER, you can create a temporary clone of any of our template/theme demos -- including backend site administration access.
To use JA’s DEMO BUILDER, follow these simple steps . . .
1. Go to the demo page of the Template/Theme you want to learn from
2. Click the "Demo Builder" tab on the left
3. Complete the information and select the template you want
You will then receive an email with your access link for the temporary demo site.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This temporary site is housed on our own servers and will only be available for a limited time -- generally 24 to 48 hours.
So, if you’re finding yourself in a situation where you need to know how a certain element was configured within any of our JATC/JMTC Templates/Themes -- but do not feel you can (or want to) risk starting from scratch -- using JA’s DEMO BUILDER is a great way and very useful tool to test out the site in a semi-live setting . . . as well as explore through and study the site administration settings and configurations.
Hope you find this tip helpful.
