RocketLauncher

RocketTheme templates features some amazing advanced features and layout possibilities that open up a wide world of options for your sites. Unfortunately, the default Joomla content in a new Joomla install is very limited and does little to take advantage of the abilities of a modern Joomla template.

Each of our demo sites has been highly customized to show off the abilities of each template and give that "professional touch" to the look and feel of the content. This professional look could not be achieved without hands on manual customization, that is, until now.

Populus now features the exciting new RocketLauncher custom Joomla install option. With the RocketLauncher Populus Joomla installer, you can instantly create a Joomla site complete with custom content that is a perfect replica of our Populus demo site that has been professionally tuned to look its best, all with just a few clicks.

The Populus RocketLauncher package consists of a full 1.0.13 Joomla install, complete with all of the demo images, content, modules, and extensions. By running the installer, your Joomla site will be set up with all everything needed to create an exact implementation of the demo site automatically.

RocketLauncher includes a FULL Joomla install, in addition to the template and demo contents. The Joomla installation process is necessary in creating the demo content, therefore RocketLauncher will only work properly as a new Joomla installation. It can not be used on an existing Joomla installation.

Populus features an incredible 22 fully collapsible module positions providing you with the ultimate in flexibility. Populus includes built in style and implementation for the extra module positions "user10 - user 17". These module positions are not defined in a default Joomla install and must be added.

You can add these additional module positions by going to "Site > Template Manager > Module Positions" in your Joomla administrator.

Mootools Integration

Populus utilises the javascript library known as mootools to power special effects such as the RokMooMenu, RokSlide integration, and RokZoom features. Populus uses the latest development build of the mootools javascript library, but is also now compatible with the earlier 1.11 version of mootools as well for better integration and backwards compatibility.

Populus' built in mootools javascript and functionality can also be disabled, should you need to use third party extensions which utilise other javascript libraries. Visit the RocketTheme Populus forum for more information. You can find out more information about Mootools on their website, located at http://mootools.net.
