Modify articles with single module list latest in home

paoloci

Hello
I need to have in homepage a result like this that I obtain with wrap
https://www.ilcattolico.it/wrap-news.html
when I use a new template with different framework
but the way of wrap is not good because It opens articles in new wrap.

If use specific category with specific articles with every articles load a modules from a specific category
not respect the "ul li" and create links without list
so the effect must be
link
link
link
but begin
link link link..
is not useful for a list

If I create a single article with tables
These column are not responsive and aren't useful for mobile.

In fact I must change template in another domain only for the home page
for example here
https://www.orientecristiano.it/

Any suggest?

PS: Please change in my account the domain for help cristianocattolico.it in ilcattolico.it
cristianocattolico.it is closed

Thanks

paoloci Hi

Not sure as to what you mean

Please provide screenshot marked with annotations as to what you wish to achieve so as to avoid confusion or ambiquity in addressing your query

paoloci

First of all thanks for reply.

I need an home like this
https://www.orientecristiano.it
Here It use only for the home another template and framework. For the others pages use Ja Wall.

But in ilcattolico.it I need to have an only template: Ja Wall

First test: To obtain a similar effect I can use a template in a template with wrap menu
https://www.ilcattolico.it/wrap-news.html
in this way every module could create the condition of use responsive in mobile..
but if I click a link open Ja Wall inside Ja Wall
this is a problem.

Second Test:
If I use another solution to create an article that load a module with latest news of a specific category
I can't see a list (ul li)
but every link after link
see the example That I I have done in JaWall

The list in the example could be:
° Al Laterano.....
° Praga il ritorno...
° l'UE ha rinnovato..
° Dal 26 maggio...
° Verso il Sinodo della Chiesa Caldea

but appair, as I said, a link after a link in continue not in a list
Al Laterano..... Praga il ritorno... l'UE ha rinnovato.. Dal 26 maggio... Verso il Sinodo della Chiesa Caldea

So In which way I can create this effect in Ja Wall
like the homepage in https://www.orientecristiano.it?

First test is not good. The second test not create a list.
Which solution You suggest? Which hack?

Thanks

paoloci If I use another solution to create an article that load a module with latest news of a specific category
I can't see a list (ul li) but every link after link. see the example That I I have done in JaWall

Can you provide me direct link as to where the specific screenshot has been taken from so as to have closer look

paoloci

Yes thanks

here an example
this news have a list from category
I use load position
if I use load module not play
https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/il-punto/news-il-punto-links.html
this is the code in the article

{loadmodule mod_latestnews,News il Punto}

{loadposition top_row2_3}
as I said only loadposition play.
But in the wall the list disappear and every links follow the other links
https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/
I need to have the list also in the wall
because I need to create a specific wall with 8 articles with 8 list from 8 categories
one list near another
so in this way is possible to have a look and usability responsive for 8 list
see the sample here in home https://www.orientecristiano.it/

If You wanna I can give You superadmin access.

Thanks

I'm very sorry but I don't understand what the problem is with the example page or what you want to display

Are you wanting to display inside an article a module?
This module inside the page is to look similar to
https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/
or
https://www.orientecristiano.it/

thanks for your understanding

Cheers
Paul

Hello
Yes
I need to show a module latest news in an article.
If I use load module not play.
If I us load position play well but only when I open the article see below

If I use the wall
https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/
the list is not visible

I need to have a view with a a list in the wall
like this example
https://www.ilcattolico.it/all-home-news.html
that not use JaWall

thanks

paulus1031

So you want this content in https://www.ilcattolico.it/all-home-news.html
to load in an article as a module looking like the above link, sorted by newest articles and displaying at least 8 article snippets?

You also want to filter by only selecting 1 item from each category?

paoloci

Yes I want with JaWall build a page like the sample
https://www.ilcattolico.it/all-home-news.html
but the article with the module, if open, show a list
in a wall
not show a list

about

You also want to filter by only selecting 1 item from each category?

no
I need to have a list for every article that load a specific category inside
Please see the image below with two tables to show the problem and What I need

As You can see when I use JaWall every article (with loadposition module inside) not create a list
like the first Table with 8 cells but the links with article one after the precedent in the same continue
not in a list

I need to have 8 list in Ja Wall

Thanks

paulus1031

With the jaWall

I thought you were not seeing the list at all?

With the JaWall example would it be enough to add css to make the links break to a new line using css?
Do you have a link for the example in the above picture

Thanks
Paul

paoloci

Please see the sample here
https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/wall-category-news/
As you can see the wall destroy the list
if open each article you can see the specific list created with loadposition of one specific module.

So which and where I must modify css to have each list in wall like every article opened?

Can you add site access details and I will look
Do you have a backup extension like akeeba backup installed?

Cheers
Paul

paoloci

I do backup manually. The DB is backup two times a day.
The files manually from me.
In which way I can put the credential to access? Here is protect?

On an other note - something to perhaps look at would be akeeba backup - a really good extension
The core version is free

Cheers
Paul

paoloci

About the admin in backend I have written the data.
Is present a redirect with cookie to go to administrator.
If You need other data I can give to you.

Akeeba is ok for large site?
This site have the DB 1,5 gb with 31.000 articles

I wait You suggest

Thanks

paulus1031

wow that is a lot of content - the backup file would be huge but you can set the configuration to only backup the database

I'm looking at this page - https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/wall-category-news/

The html in the articles is not created using list html and it is series of a links

If I add this css - does this work for you

#masonry-container .item .item-inner a {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 1em;
}

Cheers
Paul

paoloci

Thanks a lot
that code solve immediately in wall

Could You help me to understand why loadmodule doesn't work and work only loadposition?
Is It a bug of Joomla 3?

paulus1031

ah cool

Sorry I should have suggested this earlier but I didn't quite understand the problem

I've never found loadmodule very satisfactory to use so have always used loadposition - I've always preferred the flexibility of loadposition

Loading content using either method can come unstuck e.g. using a blog layout and the load syntax is in the introtext doesn't work as it will display the syntax code in the introtext but load the content correctly in the article - just how joomla works I think

Cheers

In GTMetrix
if I use loadposition and many links
https://www.ilcattolico.it/rassegna-stampa-cattolica/wall-category-news/
the time is more high, about 2,5 seconds
Could you suggest some trick to load more fast with only the links?

Thanks
