I want to use my own template in Joomla 1.5.
But I don't know how I can do it.
Thanks in advance.

The simplest way i think is to the templates subdirectory in Joomla!, duplicate one of the existing template subdirectories and give it a name my_template and then modify that. In the Joomla! admin you can select the new template and it will be applied.
If it all goes horribly wrong you can simply delete the directory and you will not have done any damage to the rest of the site.
One the Joomla! site there are a number of tutorials on how to do it you can work along with

I have a sulu 1.6 installation with multiple webspaces. I have multiple page template definitions in app/Resources/templates/pages, like default.xml, homepage.xml, blog.xml, center.xml.
Is it possible to make for example the center.xml only available for the content of one webspace and not all the others?
UPDATDE:
Where can I change this behaviour in the code, that per webspace only the ones are showing up, that are defined in the webspace.xml? This is really blocking and a super bad user experience, since the template is directly linked together with the configured webspace, but the others do not fit.
Thx a lot!

The template is only shown in the dropdown if its .html.twig file exists. So if you use the SuluThemeBundle and only a specific theme implements its .html.twig file the template will not be shown on the other theme aslong as the .html.twig does not exists there.
This feature has not yet been implemented, because not too many people have asked for it...
Since Sulu 2.0 you can limit the template on the webspace using the exclude-templates inside your webspace configuration:
<excluded-templates>
<excluded-template>overview</excluded-template>
</excluded-templates>
Before the only way to limit page templates was to work with themes.
I'm using Typo3 for the first time and have been asked to update a site built on it.
Making changes to existing templates so far has been OK since they were mainly CSS changes or replacing images. Now though I need to create a couple of new page templates.
What's the easiest way to go about this? The existing site has a home.html and layout.hmlt in the fileadmin directory. Do I need to create a new html file there, if so how do I use this as a new template for some of my pages?
I'm coming from a mainly WordPress background in terms of CMS (I've nearly given in a recoded the site as a WordPress site since I think it would be quicker at this stage) but I'd really prefer to figure this out.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I'm pulling my hair out trying to read through the documentation and getting nowhere. The site is using Typo3 version 4.4.6
Thanks!
How you add a new template to your page depends on how templating is handled. Sadly TYPO3 has a poor templating out of the box, so there is most likely an extension that does the job on your site.
Probably one of these:
automaketemplate
templa_voila
flux & fluidpages
Check if one of these extension is installed and add a new page template according to the extensions manual or specify your question afterwards.
Edit:
If plain TYPO3 was used, you'll find something like
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEMPLATE
page.10 {
file = fileadmin/myTemplate.html
}
in your Typoscript. You can add tmplate files like the ones that are already there. To use a different template on a page, you have to replace the page.10.file with the template you want to use. This can be done with a new template record (crated in backend via the template module). But this is a rather anoying procedure to change the template, because you have to create each time you want to change the page template for a page and its children. That is why mostly extensions are used for this.
The out of the box situation gets better with newer TYPO3 versions but in 4.4.6 there are no Backend Layouts that could be uses for a template switch ot something like that.
In Addition to change the mere file you have to adjust the subparts or marker that are filled with the content. You'll find that configured in your TypoScript as well
Joomla is pretty good CMS but, is there any way to create custom template which will be joomla supportable ?
If I understand your question you want to convert an existing template that isn't even a Joomla template. If that is the case I found it very hard to do, of course depending on where the template was coming from. I ended up taking a template for Joomla 1.5 and starting from that. (Although the ja_Purity is a messy one when it comes to the CSS, looking back I would should have started with another one....)
Yes, you can do it. Copy default template which comes with Joomla and customize it, and you can install it now.
Refer : http://docs.joomla.org/Joomla!_1.5_Template_Tutorials_Project
Follow the SiteGround tutorial.
1st result for Google: joomla change template.
If you mean a page-specific template, then this is answered here: http://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_assign_a_template_to_a_specific_page%3F
It describes the following steps:
In Joomla! there is a default
template, but you can assign other
templates to specific "pages" that are
defined by menu links.
To assign a template to a page, you
must first make sure that there is a
direct menu link to the page.
Go to Extensions>>Template Manager
Select the Template and click the edit icon (or click the template name)
In the left column, change "None" to "Select from List."
Select the links you want to apply the template to.
Save
Note that you cannot assign the
default template to individual pages.

What would be the easiest way to go about creating a directory based in Joomla similar to craigslist?
