They are quick installs of Joomla combined with all the modules, images, etc used on our demo. Within a few minutes you can have your site up, running and looking just like our demo. No more importing SQL dumps and installing modules.  Just head on over to the download section of this template and grab a Site Shaper.  Simply install the Site Shaper like any other Joomla installation, it\'s that easy!<br /><br />   <h3>How to setup a Site Shaper</h3>   <br />  <strong>Note</strong> \r\n- please read the entire tutorial.  If you already know how to install Joomla then just install the site shaper just like a regular Joomla install, if you don\'t know how to install Joomla continue reading. <br /><br /><ul class=\"ul_bullet\"> <li>Login to your cpanel or your server admin panel.</li> <li>Locate the area where your databases are    (usually labeled Mysql Databases)</li> <li>Create a new database</li> <li>Next create a new database user and assign    it to this newly created database in the previous step</li> <li>You will then    need to extract the site shaper to either a folder on your server or the root    directory such as WWW. NOTE: if you already have a website in the root of your    WWW folder, we suggest creating a new folder and extract the site shaper    there. If your cpanel does not have an extract option or you cannot find it,    you may also extract the contents of your site shaper in to a folder on your    desktop and upload all the files via an ftp client to your server.</li><li>Next, navigate to the url where you extracted the site shaper via your web browser.</li><li>Continue through each screen until you reach the below screenshot:</li> <br /> <img src=\"images/siteshaper.png\" border=\"0\" /> <br /><br /> <li>At the above screen be sure to enter localhost as shown, continue to fill in the following text fields with your newly created database and username information</li> <li>Follow through the rest of the site shaper setup and click the install sample data at the last screen and the installation is complete! (be sure to rename/remove the installation directory after finishing the install)</li> </ul> <br /><br />     <h3>SQL Dumps</h3> <br />  It is highly recommended that you use a Site Shaper if you want to get your site looking like our demos.  If you just want the data we have used then an SQL dump is for you.   <br /><br /><ul class=\"ul_bullet\"> <li>Login to your phpmyadmin via cpanel or another server database admin panel.</li> <li>Navigate to the database your Joomla install is using</li> <li>Select all tables and drop them.

To demo the menu just mouse over the top menu and you will notice the menu smoothly  expand and fade in. <br /> <h3><br />Menu screenshot:</h3><br/>   <img class=\"padded\" src=\"images/dropmenu.jpg\" border=\"0\" />    \r\n<br /><br /><div style=\"clear:both\"></div>  <p>&nbsp;</p>    <h3>4 Options:</h3><br />    \r\n\r\n<ul class=\"ul_numbers\"> \r\n<li class=\"li_number1\">Drop In Effect (<a href=\"http://www.shape5.com/demo/game_crusade\">click here for an example</a>)</li> \r\n\r\n<li class=\"li_number2\">Fade In Effect  (<a href=\"http://www.shape5.com/demo/game_crusade/ex2\">click here for an example</a>)</li> \r\n\r\n<li class=\"li_number3\">Scroll In Effect  (<a href=\"http://www.shape5.com/demo/game_crusade/ex3\">click here for an example</a>)</li> \r\n\r\n<li class=\"li_number4\">Standard Suckerfish Effect  (<a href=\"http://www.shape5.com/demo/game_crusade/ex4\">click here for an example</a>)</li> <br /><br /></ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"gray_box\">\r\n<strong>I like what I see!

This plugin can be used on any Joomla template. Read the full description below to see why. </strong><br/><br/>\r\nThe CSS and JS Compressor increases speed and performance by compressing your site\'s CSS and Javascript files to much smaller sizes than the original and places them in a cache folder on your server. No data is lost during this process, just simply made smaller.   So what makes our\'s better than the rest? One word, FLEXIBILITY! Read below for  a full description:<br/>\r\n<ul class=\"ul_star\">\r\n<li>All other plugins force all CSS and JS to be combined into one file of JS and file of CSS. Our compressor plugin gives you the option to: 	 \r\n<ul class=\"ul_star\">\r\n<li>Only compress module files</li>\r\n<li>Only compress component files</li>\r\n<li>Only compress non-module and non-component files</li>\r\n<li>Or combine any of the above</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThe point is you can control what gets compressed independent of each other. </li>\r\n<li>All other compressor plugins combine javascript files into one large file, called at the top of the page. The problem is javascript almost always needs to be called in a certain order or it will cause page errors. Calling a file at the top of the page that was originally intended to be called in a certain order will cause unwanted results. So we\'ve fixed this and given you three options: 	 \r\n<ul class=\"ul_star\">\r\n<li>Call the compressed javascript at the top of the page in a combined file</li>\r\n<li>Call the compressed javascript at the bottom of the page in a combined file</li>\r\n<li>Call the compressed javascript in their original locations as individual files</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThe first two ways will generate three files (module js, component js, and other js files) and will create less calls to your server. However, we HIGHLY recommend the use of the third option. This option will generate the same amount of calls to your server as without the plugin but will still compress your javascript to a much smaller size all while still being called in the original location to avoid  script errors, in other words less download time for your viewers and no script  errors! </li>\r\n<li>Need to exclude certain files? Not a problem! This plugin will allow you to specify certain file names to be excluded from compression despite any previous settings.</li>\r\n<li>Specify in the backend how long you want your cache to stay on your server. After the time has completed a new cached version of your files will be created.</li>\r\n<li>Eliminate unwanted white space in your files be enabling CSS Optimization. This feature will remove any un-used white space to reduce the size of each CSS file.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p> </p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"red_box\">\r\n<strong>Note: Because this plugin uses cached versions of your javascript and css this plugin should not be used while developing your site and should only be enabled after you have completed your site. <br /><br /> Gzip must be installed on your server and enabled in PHP in order to function.</strong>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: large;\">See This Plugin in Action!</span></strong></p>\r\n<p>Without the Shape 5 CSS and JS Compressor Enabled:</p>\r\n<p><img src=\"images/gzip_without.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"224\" /></p>\r\n<p>With the Shape 5 CSS and JS Compressor Enabled a <strong>72% DECREASE IN DOWNLOAD  SIZE!</strong></p>\r\n<p><img src=\"images/gzip_with.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"224\" /></p>\r\n<p><br /></p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"gray_box\">\r\n<strong>I like what I see!

Throughout his career in public service, Mike has always supported legislation that expands the definition of what constitutes a hate crime, extending the penalties for those who commit crimes of hate, and working to eliminate the presence of bigotry, hate and discrimination in our schools and towards our children.&nbsp;<br /><br />Terrorism can be understood as a global hate crime, deeply rooted in history and misinformation.

As a result, millions of individuals are forced to live in the shadows, rather than being able to openly support their families, communities, and nation at large. The backlog in employment-based visas prohibits highly-skilled foreign workers from helping Silicon Valley flourish. As Chair Emeritus and Immigration Taskforce Chair of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC), Congressman Honda has championed the effort for comprehensive immigration reform since entering Congress in 2001.                                    Comprehensive immigration reform that creates a pathway to citizenship, allows businesses to remain competitive, and avoids mass deportation is not only humane, but is also fiscally responsible. It is estimated that any mass deportation plan for undocumented immigrants would cost our country’s GDP a whopping $2.6 trillion over the next 10 years. Conversely, by supporting comprehensive immigration reform, we could generate an additional $1.5 trillion in GDP over the next 10 years.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<h5 style=\"color: #663333; font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-family: \'Century Gothic\', Arial, Helvetica;\"><strong>FAMILY-FOCUSED REFORM</strong><b> | Reuniting Families Act</b></h5>\r\nMike is the author of the Reuniting Families Act (RFA), a bill that reduces the visa backlog for legal immigrants and promotes humane and timely reunification of immigrant families.  Our nation’s family-based immigration system has not been updated in 20 years, leaving nearly 4.5 million people stuck in perpetual waiting, which is both unproductive and inexcusable. RFA reduces the backlog for families trying to reunite with their loved ones by recapturing unused employment-based and family-sponsored visas that can be lost to bureaucratic delay. The bill also recognizes the sacrifices that certain World War II Filipino veterans made for this country by exempting their children from the numerical caps on visas, and eliminates discrimination in immigration law against same-sex, permanent partners and their families who are seeking to reunite. The Reuniting Families Act legislation is in line with American family values and with our nation’s need to grow our economy and save taxpayer money.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<h5 style=\"color: #663333; font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-family: \'Century Gothic\', Arial, Helvetica;\"><strong>HELPING SILICON VALLEY FLOURISH</strong><b> | Employment-Based Visas<br /></b></h5>\r\nThe presence of highly-skilled foreign-born workers whose abilities complement those of native-born workers creates job growth and new employment opportunities for American workers.

The international competitiveness of the U.S. depends on the contributions of highly-skilled professionals and workers from abroad for many decades to come.  Mike is also a proud co-sponsor of the Immigration Driving Entrepreneurship in America (IDEA) Act of 2011, which would allow employers to obtain green cards for highly-skilled, foreign-born, American-educated workers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) and would create a pathway to permanent residency.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<h5 style=\"color: #663333; font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-family: \'Century Gothic\', Arial, Helvetica;\"><strong>SAFEGUARDING THE AMERICAN DREAM</strong><b> | DREAM Act</b></h5>\r\nMike has been a leading champion for DREAM students—upstanding immigrant youths who were brought to the U.S. as children.

The SUCCEED Act will help immigrant communities become a more integral part of the American fabric and maximize their social and economic contributions.
