Blogbox and Joomla 4 formatting issues

pjbg

Hello. Thanks for updating this template but I have a few formatting issues compared to Joomla 3, which I'm presuming is the template (but I guess could be Joomla?).

I'm running Joomla 4.3.3, PHP8.1

For the following, refer to the "industry news" menu item see the issue:

Clicking a menu item that displays a listing of articles in a category, I cannot, no matter what I do, get rid of the word "article" at the top of the listing, HIDE the column titles (in this case title, and published date).
When clicking any of the articles to read, the Category and the Published Date appears 'on top of' the article title.
All article titles (in the article) are left aligned, in Joomla 3 they are centred.

On all pages:

Breadcrumbs are not formatted, there is no spacing or symbol, e.g. Home | About | Etc.

I also have some display issues with a component called RAXO All-mode PRO, which delivers news articles in a nice format. I will bring these issues up with them, but maybe the template is causing these issues too?

Thanks.

In addition ...

After consulting with RAXO, the issues I'm having with RAXO news display, may also relate to the template BLOGBOX.

I'm getting:
Refused to apply style from '.../templates/blog_box/css/general.css' because its MIME type ('text/html') is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled.'

If you could kindly confirm these errors are template-related, and if so, a fix for Joomla 4.

Many thanks.

Is anyone looking into this at all?

pjbg Hello

I can't access your site now, it looks like your host limits access from my place.

Could you add an exception for my IP address so I can check for you? 27.72.29.73

pjbg

I checked with the host. That IP address is not blocked.

Here is how it looks when I access your site:

If you use AdminTools component, you can add exception for my IP

I must use VPN to be able to access your site.

I added this custom css for some of your questions related to category list page and article page:

/* JoomlArt support */
.com-content-category.category-list .table-bordered caption.visually-hidden {
    display: none;
}
.com-content-article.item-page .article-info {
    top: 50px;
    position: relative;
}

.com-content-article.item-page .page-header {
    text-align: center;
}
#s5_breadcrumb_wrap .breadcrumb li.breadcrumb-item +li.breadcrumb-item >span:before, #s5_breadcrumb_wrap .breadcrumb li.breadcrumb-item +li.breadcrumb-item >a:before {
  content: '/';
  display: inline-block;
  margin: 0 4px;
  color: #999;
}

I've not used RAXO before, could you share the page you're using it and how it should be so I can check?

Thank for the updates needed in custom.css. The following are solved.

Clicking a menu item that displays a listing of articles in a category, I cannot, no matter what I do, get rid of the word "article" at the top of the listing, SOLVED 🙂

When clicking any of the articles to read, the Category and the Published Date appears 'on top of' the article title. SOLVED 🙂

All article titles (in the article) are left aligned, in Joomla 3 they are centred. SOLVED 🙂

Breadcrumbs are not formatted, there is no spacing or symbol, e.g. Home | About | Etc. SOLVED 🙂

pjbg In Joomla 4, it doesn't load this general.css anymore. I just commented this line of code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo $LiveSiteUrl ?>templates/<?php echo $doc->template; ?>/css/general.css" type="text/css" />

in the file:/templates/blog_box/vertex/css_and_js.php

For RAXO module, could you contact the provider of this module for further checking? as it's 3rd party extension.

pjbg

Ok. Thanks. Will do.
