Hi guys, i need few quick tips ...

# Issue 1

Is there anyway to duplicate somehow the EasySocial Theme folder under another custom theme name in order to begin making some changes to it ?
So what i want is basically create a new theme folder called "my_theme" and copy all the current "Wireframe" theme files over to this folder and start making changes to them for my needs.

* same goes for overriding Komento and EasyDiscuss themes


# Issue 2

This may be a little tricky and may involved advanced programming but i give it a shot and ask
I am developing my own general Joomla template and i want to use EasySocial stuff into my own template, so here comes the questions

a) How can i trigger the popups for quick view of new notifications and conversations ? (see attachment) . Basically i want to open these panels from my own custom buttons located in the custom index.php of my template.

b) How can i trigger the red counter for new notifications and new conversations ? You know, those red circles with counters inside (see attachment) . I already made all the needed styling and i just have to trigger the view of the <span> containing these counters.

Thanks so much in advance ! This may be a little out of support scope but it can help me a lot saving time. Thanks again !
Hi,

1. To override our component themes, just follow this structure:

/templates/template_name/html/com_component/*

The base themes folder for our components are:

/components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/*
/components/com_komento/themes/kuro/*
/components/com_easydiscuss/themes/simplistic/*

2. This involves JavaScript as well and you can refer to the themes at /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/toolbar/* for more information.
