There is one block available, “Partners”, which displays a list of partner logos. A number of configuration options are available for this block, which can be set through Admin -> System -> Blocks -> Partners -> Edit. The options are:
| Option | Function |
|---|---|
| Put spaces between partners? | This creates a larger gap between partner logos. The default is “yes” and most useful when you are displaying both images and text links in the block. It leaves a gap even if you say “no”, but not as big. |
| Fade image? | This option makes the partner logos partially transparent. They become fully visible when the cursor hovers over them. The default is “yes”. |
| Randomize partners in blocks? | This randomly determines which partners are shown in the partners block. It does not affect the sort order! It is only useful if you have more partners than you allow to be shown in the block – the block contents will rotate each time the page is reloaded. Default is “yes”. |
| Limit blocks to xx entries | You can control how many partners you want to appear in the block. The default is one. Set it at “0” to display all available partners. |
| In blocks show | You have a choice of displaying partner logos, text links or both. |
| Order block content by | Controls how the block contents are sorted. The choices are to sort by ID, number of hits, title (alphabetical) or weight. The default is to sort by hits. |
The screenshots below illustrate different configuration options of the Partners block. Figure 1, “Spacing and fading enabled” (the cursor is hovering over the centre partner) and is showing both images and text links; Figure 2, “Fading and spacing disabled” is showing images only; and Figure 3, “Text links only” is showing text links only.
