michele damiano,
1. Do you mean page background? If you want to add a small image and repeat it please add it as background texture under the Background tab >> Image or Texture >> and then repeat it under the Options dialog >> Texture Position.
2. There are two possible ways to create a new position depending on the position location. For example, you can add new Header and Footer positions directly in Artisteer. Unfortunately all other positions should be added manually after the exporting:
- open index.php file and add the new position in the place you want it to appear:
<div class="my_new_position"><?php echo $view->position('my_position', 'art-nostyle'); ?></div>

Here you can use one of the template class suffixes: art-nostyle, art-block, art-article depending on the desired position style (Artisteer Block, Article, or No Style)
- open templateDetails.xmk file and register new position:
<position>my_position</position>


That's all.

1) I confirm that I want to put a picture as a background texture.

2) I don't understand the use of the template class suffixes. I modify index.php file and that's it? or do i have to change class suffixes template's?

Thank's

Hi Michele,

"art-block" class means that your new position will inherit block styles.
"art-article" class means article styles.
"art-nostyle" means no styles at all.

Yes, that's all.

But when inserting this code:

<div class="my_new_position"><?php echo $view->position('my_position', 'art-nostyle'); ?></div>


you can replace 'art-nostyle' either with 'art-block' or ''art-article'.

1) backround =

a) I have to put a picture as the background on the whole sheet. the program just makes me magnify the image up to 130% and not on the entire sheet.

b) Then I have to use a very large image?
c) the image must be as big?
d)The site then becomes slow?

I use a module named BT Background slideshow. It handles the sizing of the image in the background and also allows you to place a mask over the image for added effect. You may use only one image for a static background or several images as a background slideshow. The company providing the module is Bowthemes.

As quoted above, I also have trouble using any module that places a background slider in my Joomla 3.3.6 site. I tried Pri background slider and BT Background slider but both did not work at all.

Has anyone ever found an answer to this. I export my templates as position-1, position-2, etc and have never been able to apply the BT module (or any other) as a background image because Artisteer doesn't to regognize a page background as a position!.
