This section is intended for school webmasters and administrators who are developing a new school website, or updating the look of an existing site.
Schools may select a template from the choices below. Please note that you must contact a computer facilitator in order to have the new template installed and configured on your site. We support occasional template changes to refresh school sites, usually on a biannual basis.

The "Simple Image Rotator" module is an easy way to create a rotating image slideshow display on your school website. Click on the pictures below to see live examples of this rotator in action at William Dunbar, Pringle Creek, and Sunderland P.S.

| See the bottom of this page for 3 examples of this module in action.
The "Ultimate Content Display" module can display your Joomla! content or newsfeed items in any module position in 3 different ways:
- In a plain (unordered) list format
- inside an ajax cross-fader or
- inside a jQuery-based cross-fader/slider!
The "Ultimate Content Display" module is the evolution of JoomlaWorks' popular "Ultimate AJAX Newsflash" and "Content Items Fading Scroller" modules and has been developed with ease of use and... practicality in mind! It's the kind of module you "set and forget", cause it simply works! Plus, it can help you create powerful Joomla! based portal websites, which require various types of "content" or "info" boxes.
Once the webmaster has logged into the Administrative area, he/she should click Extensions → Module Manager → Ultimate Content Display. Then,
- Make sure you define at least one "content source ID" (for section, category, content item etc.) for the module to work (this ID is acquired from the Articles Manager 'ID' column for any article)
- In order for you to have multiple copies of the module on the same page as in the example below, you must give each module instance a "Unique ID". Using this option you can have for example 3 copies of the module on your frontpage, one for displaying content using the AJAX fader and two for displaying content using the jQuery fader/slider. The combinations are unlimited!
- The module is "plug 'n' play", which means you install it, set it up and publish it, without any changes to the code. The module will inherit your template's CSS settings and will merge nicely with the rest of the content.
