Box
The System-RSTemplate! plugin brings in some pre-defined, fully customizable stylized containers. It gets installed along with the template, and should be published automatically. If you are to experience any issues with this feature, first make sure to check that the plugin didn't get unpublished for whatever reason.
To access the Shortcodes feature, click on the button found at the bottom side of the text editor that you are using (available for Joomla! Content articles, Custom HMTL modules, etc. ). This functionality is employed through the Button - RSTemplate! Shortcodes plugin which also gets installed along with the template and is published automatically. If the button does not show up in your editor, make sure that the plugin didn't get unpublished.
There are 3 types of boxes available for use, each having multiple styles to choose from: Icons, Images and Specials. In this article we will provide explanations for each of the styles, including information such as: the elements each style includes (titles, images, buttons, etc.), screenshots with their default appearance, shortcodes examples and how to edit each element.
