Introducing RocketLauncher - The all-in-one Joomla!+template+demo installer
« on: June 04, 2007, 02:58:25 PM »

RocketTheme templates feature 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 have 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.

With the new RocketLauncher Joomla installer package, you can instantly create a Joomla site complete with custom content that has been professionally tuned to look its best, all with just a few clicks. The RocketLauncher package consists of a full 1.0.12 Joomla install, complete with the template, as well as all of the demo images, content, modules, and extensions. By running this custom installer, an exact duplicate of the template demo site will be created. Just install the RocketLauncher package as you would a standard Joomla install package and it will take care of the rest.

NOTE: The RocketLauncher template packages are ONLY for use on "new" Joomla installations as they install a fresh copy of Joomla and will overwrite any existing Joomla install in the destination directory.

Currently, the templates with RocketLauncher package options are:

June 2007 - Elemental
May 2007 - Versatility III
April 2007 - ColorMatic


Other RocketLauncher template packages will be available in the near future.

This is great!!!

Is there a way to get the template installed w/o overwriting your current install if you've already started customizing it?

oh and as for the SQL....try this "SELECT * from REFRIGERATOR WHERE Alcohol_Content >= '.045';"  Grin

I tinkered with this and it really did help. I was able to play with

Will this work with that
What was the syntax for that...
Can I do this that way
Etc.....

Example, I wanted to know if I could copy rokslide and use it with different content on different pages, or the same content. Only took seconds to figure out with the demo. (It does work) Then I learned using rokslide twice on a page makes your error cup runeth over....

So it's a great feature and timesaver. Thanks for the effort.





Oh yea, I am a bit miffed about one thing. I've been searching all over and can't find this stinking thing anywhere. http://www.rockettheme.com/option,com_smf/Itemid,190/topic,4417.msg65650/#msg65650
Do I have to search all 900 combinations?

All the modules that come with the templates such as RokSlide, RokFlickr are the ones which are installed. There are no non Joomla! default, demo specific modules in the installers Smiley
