well, i Installed jomla, then jomres, then the Mira template, and there just doesn't seem to be any place to apply the template.

What jomres version are you using?

Also please make sure you don`t have any other customizations to the template saved in the database using the Template Edit feature in jomres.

The template can be installed very easy by going to jomres-> Plugins and use the install feature to install je_mira.zip. When installation is finished, you`ll see a new button in your jomres control panel (backend). Use that to select the desired color.

Jomres version 4.4

I installed it via the plugin and i see and have changes the JE Mire color option, but I still just see the regular Joomla template and info. Other than the "jomres" link I added to the menu, it is just the regular joomla install.

This is a clean joomla/jomres/mira install nothing has been changed other than a dummy property being added and the preinstalled joomla data being deleted. I was hoping that installing this template would set the layout needed for the site to look like the examples without having to mess with anything else.

this is the site www.legacyrentalhomes.com/secure/
I'll provide log/pass if you'd like to take a look.

EDIT
Ok, I think I figured it out, this "template" really isn't a joomla template at all, it's just a template for the jomres section of the site, which to me seems over priced if that is all it is I guess.

if you want to make the site look like the demos, you need to use Versatility 4 template from Rocket Theme.

Hopefully sometime soon we`ll have full site travel related designs, that will include both joomla and jomres templates.
