I want to change the layout within articles (such as multiple columns, text flow around images etc...).

1) Is this possible in Template Manager?
It looks like Template Manager is mainly for layout of the main page (and the responsive layout sizes).

2) I could make these changes for each article in css but I want to maintain the consistent T3 responsive design. What is the best way to do this?

3) Is there another extension that I should add?

Thank you.

Hi Can,

The template manager does not support that feature. It belongs to customization. You can override the article layout you want in the "html" folder. Please take some time to read the docs, it could help you.

Gardner,

Thank you for your quick reply.

However, I believe you misunderstood what I meant by "layout within articles".

The documentation article you reference to "override the article layout" demonstrates how to override the "Menu Item" type "Category Blog" (stated as "Blog Category" in the docs).

To do so requires:
1) modifying (3) files: blog.xml, blog.php, blog_item.php
2) creating layout and style files such as: blog.less
3) compile LESS to CSS
4) creating and modifying: helper.php
5) creating the Blog template style
6) configuring the menu

This produces a "front-end appearance" ... Layout of Articles (how multiple articles are laid out in a menu item or blog)

I am wanting to modify the layout of the articles themselves (which I am sure is also explained in detail somewhere in the documentation) but I am having difficulty finding such a tutorial.

Your help in providing a link to this tutorial would be greatly appreciated.
