Halogy CMS - custom navigation - php

Hy, i just recently started to use Halogy, it's a cms based on codeigniter.
I'm currently just checking it out so i'm using the free version, but i cant get my mind wrapped around the custom navigation option.
First of all i cant access the navigation section, and i cant show custom navigation in the template using this {navigation(custom)}
Thanks for any help

how to apply different layouts to different pages in Drupal 7?

I have converted a HTML page to Drupal template by using blocks and page.tpl.php file. Now I have another page that I need to convert and link it to the main navigation menu.
The problem is, that another page have completely different layouts and I don't understand how to create that layout and link it to the main menu. Is it really so complex? I found that it can be done by using panels but I am completely new in Drupal. I need a simple solution. Thanks if anyone can help me.
You can use some module like display suite or panels to create custom new pages with custom layout.
If you want to make all with code (and avoid database configurations), panels module is fully compatible with features (I don't know compatibility with display suite).

Magento - Widget Development - Doesnt show up in CMS widgets list

Can anyone list the main causes for a widget i developed doesn't show up in the New Instance Widget section of Magento CMS?
I followed this tutorial, but it doesnt show up as it's supposed to, actually it doesnt show up at all.
If you think you need to see my code please just tell me.
Happy programming!
If you have done the Magento security upgrades , you might want to white-list the widget so CMS pages can access it.

Customising a plugin for Genesis/Studiopress Wordpress

I have created a carousel (not perfect yet - images are not showing but it could work) with custom control icons ("next" "back") with Boostrap:http://homepage160630-v3.bitballoon.com/travel
Being not familiar with PHP, I found it difficult to integrate a CMS like Wordpress into my code, so I am trying to re-create the same site as a Genesis/Studiopress Wordpress site based on the Genesis Sample theme:

My biggest problem is to create the carousel. I have looked at "Easing Slider" plugin: of course it does not allow to position the control icons or even to create my own.
I wonder what shall I do? try to create the custom carousel by transforming my Bootstrap code into PHP or try to edit the plugin? or something else?

I think your best option is to get bootstrap shortcode plugin like this one https://wordpress.org/plugins/bootstrap-3-shortcodes/
However there are a bunch of them and you should check what works best for you. The link above is just to visualize.

Wordpress Styling

I am new to using Wordpress as a developer as opposed to just using the dashbord but am struggling to understand a few things and would really appreciate some help.
For a site that does not require a blog - do you just create custom/specific page templates for each page that your site requires?
If so - presumably you code the content directly. But then how does the client edit their website's about page or any other page for example - because doing it through the dashboard isn't going to use the necessary CSS hooks without using classes, id's and HTML?
As a beginner to Wordpress - I can't see that posts are used on sites that don't have a blog, but am I correct or is using posts the way a client can edit content on their site, but just have posts styled to look like normal content?
Or am I wrong in thinking a company (I am starting as an intern at a web dev company that use WordPress) provides the tools or at least configures WordPress to enable the client to change content?
Any help getting me to understand the basic concept and way a developer would create a custom WordPress site would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
You can use page.php. In WordPress everyone create at least one custom template type to get wider design for custom pages.
You can refer here for more info.
Use Advanced Custom Fields with page templates. Say you are making an About page, call that template about and select that template in the backend editor. Once you save the page, the acf fields will show up and you can populate the content.

Incorporating phpBB 3.0 into our HTML page rather than in a whole page for itself?

Having a bit of difficulty trying to incorporate the phpBB forum within a on our own page. Does anyone know if this is actually possible?
It might be that phpBB is not the correct product for the job but I had to start somewhere. Looking for a low quantity Message Forum to incorporate into our website. Rather than have it in it's own page I would like to build it into our standard page layout with our own Header, Menu, Quick links panel, floating Footer etc.
Can this be done, if so is phpBB the right Forum to use or should I be looking at something else.
Thanks,
You can create a phpBB board style which matches your regular page layout. See e.g. http://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/how-to-create-a-style-basics/ for some details.
Note that phpBB updates can introduce changes to the default board style - when this happens, you will need to update your board style accordingly to make sure everything works as expected.
You could try modifying the phpBB template files (.tpl) to pull in your website framework and then the forum will be surrouned with your actual website e.g. header, menu, footer, etc.
