I'm using joomla 3.4.1 and seblod 3.5.0
When i make a new article using seblod, the full article layout i like it supposed to be but the intro tekst is now how we want it to be.
Full text
We want to get a little box with some information like location, hours per week and education on the right of the text like the image below
Its now not showing the niveau location and hours part but it look like this Intro layout
Here is how my admin page looks like:
I hope you guys can help me out.
Date and location arrows are not supposed to be there
SEBLOD has some manuals on their site relating to design like this - you can find it here: http://www.seblod.com/resources/manuals/designer/drag-drop-templating
Firstly, why are you using the Intro view to display your information? This view is really only used if you want to make a menu item with the native Joomla article blog view, which lists all the articles in a category. Instead of doing this, you will get better performance and results if you use a custom SEBLOD List & Search type to list your information.
If you're trying to control the layout of your information on your full article page, you should be using the Content View.
To achieve the layout you drew above, you would put your Image field in "TOP A", your Location / Date in "TOP B" and your article text in "TOP C"

I am really sorry to ask this question which probably has a very straightforward and easy solution, but I was searching like hell and could not find anything... I have some past experience with web design via HTML, but recently I decided to try out Wix Editor.
I am creating a website of a research group, which has a pretty simple design - header (including menu like "research -- people -- open positions -- contact" etc.), main content below, and finally footer (showing only contact details).
Now the problem: when item "people" is clicked in the header menu, I would like the content below to appear like this: on the left side there will be a list of people names divided into few subsections, e.g.: "Postgraduate students" (and below Name #1, Name #2...), and under that "Undergraduate students" (below Name #3, Name #4 etc.). Each name should be a hyperlink, which - when clicked - will show photo and some details about the given person on the right side of that page.
I tried adding new menu (no success), divide the content of the page into two columns, but then I don't know what to do. Of course, I could create the whole content page (including both name list on the left and personal details on the right) manually for each person but then when a new student comes, I will have to update not only the list on the left once (which I would love to) but each list in each of the person's dedicated "complete" pages. Is there any simple way how to implement this?
I hope I managed to describe the problem clearly and did not confuse everything, as I feel totally lost & stupid now. Many thanks for any feedback.
I have installed my smart search module which is working fine, I want to only have this on my page 'blog' which - as you might have guessed - is a category blog.
I have tried the following things:
Only assign on the pages selected, here I selected blog
On all pages except those selected, here I selected everything apart from blog.
Included the search module in my category description, this worked, however, then I had two search bars instead of one. Is there a way to do this without the search bar appearing twice?
The problem is that the search bar does not only show up on the category blog site, but also on all the blog posts. How can I make sure that it only shows up on the blog page?
If the article is accessible from the Category Blog menu item, i.e. it appears in articles listed in the blog it will inherit the module positions of the Blog menu item. Thats how stock standard Joomla generally works. At least I think that's the way it works out of the box.
The reason I'm unsure is that we've been using the Advanced Module Manager(on the JED) extension (free and paid versions available) for nearly as long as we've been using Joomla. Using that I know we can specify whether a module appears on child items.
I have developed an ExpressionEngine website which has a news section. There is a news channel with categories, and the main news listing page is powered by a news/index template. The single entry (article) page is powered by a news/article template. You can see this section in action here: http://www.longbridgebirmingham.co.uk/news/. Everything's working great.
What I now need to do is list news in a very similar fashion within a subsection of the website (at segment 3 level). Here, to be exact: http://www.longbridgebirmingham.co.uk/life/community/news/. So far, I have created a new 'Community' category for the news channel and created a new community-news/index and community-news/article template which pulls in only Community news. I have used the 'Pages' facility to force this test page to use the community-news/index template: http://www.longbridgebirmingham.co.uk/life/community/news-new. Not sure if that's the right thing to do, but it seems to be working.
Now, I've been really struggling to find out a way to hook up the community-news/article template so that articles are presented at a segment 4 level: http://www.longbridgebirmingham.co.uk/life/community/news/article/url-title. Any help or advice would be really appreciated!
Thanks a lot in advance.
OK, so this is how I would recommend doing it.
you currently have your news template group which is fine.
Create categories for your news items, such as 'life' and 'community' and using the great Low Seg2Cat addon, you can then just use something like the following to filter based on the categories:
http://site.com/news/
http://site.com/news/category/
http://site.com/news/category2/sub-cat2a
This will allow you to use an unlimited number of categories and using Seg2Cat, you'll be able to filter based on the {segment_2_category_id} and/or {segment_3_category_id}.
Now, all you need to do is to append the article segment at the end if you want to show an actual article.
For example: site.com/news/category/article/url_title_of_entry/
EE, will automatically pull the article.html template from the template group.
Does this help?
I am pretty new to opencart and I want to learn how can I create a more advanced search function.
For example I have products in my store, some of them are blue and some of them are red.
How can I specify or where I can specify a product's color (but not in the title, something like an attribute)?
And after that how can I search for red products?
I do not want to search by the keywords. I want a tab where to select the color and if I choose blue the search will show me all the blue products.
I hope you understand what I wish.(and can you please give me some code examples: where to add what to add to achieve what)
Thank you!
Normally, you would use Product Tags for this (field is under Product description on Product Page in Admin > Catalog > Products). You could have problems with very short tags 3 characters or less. See this post for more info:
mysql fulltext MATCH,AGAINST returning 0 results
You would add tags to your products like: red,black,brown,leather,s,m,l,xl small, medium, large
Then you could search any of the terms
[EDIT: in response to comment #1]
I would imagine that you just type multiple terms into search box:
'brown','large'
then all products that have (any? both?) of these tags returned.
You could use a Tag cloud or similar module to display tags on your pages, also you could use these terms in search field. If you search for 'brown', all products that have this tag will be returned.
You may also consider a third party extension for a more advanced search, check Opencart site's extension section.
If you want to modify/improve the search functionality yourself, you'll need to tinker with SQL queries in catalog/model/catalog/product.php
Opencart Search is considered by many to be one of the weak points of this package. There have been discussions on Opencart forums on this matter.
Just see how it works for you with the out-of-the-box setup, then if you need more functionality, look for an extension that does what you want, hire a programmer or code it yourself.
Would like to garner opinions. We've created a website for a gay members club and they wanted the default landing page to mysterious with little information on it.
As such the Default.aspx only contains a form asking for some personal details. Users can click a button to skip this content and go to an AboutUs page.
The problem is, because we cannot control what information Google uses for the site description in search results, it is picking up the forms fields - which obviously do not makes sense as a description.
I think there are two options to counter this:
Use Robots.txt to block access to Default.aspx and only allow access to AboutUs.aspx
Write a description and title in a H1 tag but make the text colour the same as the background colour
Could I get opinions which method people will think is best for search results?
Thanks.
I would not block or try and deceive Google.
Make sure the title tag for the page is good and descriptive. Around 70 characters to explain what the website is about.
Same goes for your meta description. About two sentences to continue on from the title information.
