OK. I give up – I need help.

On a whim on Sunday night I decided to upgrade http://www.justchillincampertrailerhire.com.au from JA University to JA Argo.

I’ve used Argo on http://www.dmstinting.com.au so I’m familiar with it.

I’ve now spent 3 days trying to get it to work and I CANNOT get the logo to display in the menu, OR Get the brick module to display at the top of the home page.

Can someone please provide me with assistance.

Things I’ve tried.

• Complete uninstall of the template and T3 plugin and reinstallation
• Complete uninstall disabling of all other plugins and modules (including some complete uninstallations) then reinstallation and enabling
• Changes to the Jquery settings in K2
• Uninstallation of the Ajax contact form
• Application of jquery noconfilct() settings in Ajax form
• Removal of the social settings within K2
• Uninstallation of JCE Mediabox
• Comparison of various settings between the two sites (they all seem to be the same)

I think it’s some kind of a Jquery conflict or the fact that the version of JQuery is loading AFTER the K2 plugin, so K2 is not happy that there is no JQuery (I don’t know how to reorder them…).

The JQuery issue may be the solution to why the Brick module doesn’t display – but why no logo?

Actually on the dmstinting.com.au site the Logo will regularly not appear on sub pages at various intervals!

I’d love some assistance on this as I need to get this site back and looking pretty again.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards,

Hi pb66,

These 2 templates are built with 2 different version of T3 framework, JA University uses JAT3 v2 version while JA Argo utilizes new T3 version. If you want to use JA Argo, unpublish JAT3 v2 plugin first then install + enable T3 plugin.

You can pm me admin and ftp account of your site, I would take a closer look and help you further

Thanks,

PM has been sent.

I did uninstall the T3v2 plugin before installing the T3 plugin.

Interestingly there are two pages where the brick module appears!

http://www.justchillincampertrailerhire.com.au/camper-trailer-hire/site-map
http://www.justchillincampertrailerhire.com.au/Information.html

The only two pages that have no K2 content on them! Even though the K2 module appears to load in the html.

mmmmmmm

Hi,

The problem comes from the h2 tag used for logo image, it seems that you made change in code in header file because, by default, this template uses h1 tag instead of h2 tag.

If you still want to use h2 tag, you need to add css rule for it:

– Open file: /templates/css/custom.css

– Add this:


.logo h2,
.logo h2 a {
display: inline-block;
line-height: 1;
margin: 0;
font-weight: normal;
}

Thank you for that – that made the logo appear. I don’t understand why that happened as I haven’t changed any of the Argo css.

Any ideas why the Brick module doesn’t display on any page with K2 content?

Did you try to check the Page assignment section of that module? make sure that you assigned it to K2 content page.

The Brick module is assigned to all pages. Position ‘content-top’ and published.

Checked a couple of menu items and the ‘Brick module is assigned in Position ‘content-top’ display ‘All’.

🙁

The problem comes from the layout you are using for this template ‘default-content-left‘. When I checked in backend > template manager, it doesn’t include ‘content-top‘ block

Did you make change in code? because by default, this layout includes this content-top block.

Please try to open file: /templates/ja_argo/tpls/default-content-left.php

by default, it contains code like this:

[PHP]
<body>

<?php $this->loadBlock (‘header’) ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock (‘spotlight-1’) ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock (‘mainbody-content-left’) ?>

<?php $this->loadBlock (‘spotlight-2’) ?>

</body>
[/PHP]

It will load block mainbody-content-left – which includes above content-top block.

/templates/ja_argo/tpls/blocks/mainbody-content-left.php

[PHP]
<?php if ($hasContentTop) : ?>
<div class=”content-top <?php $this->_c($contenttop)?>”>
<jdoc:include type=”modules” name=”<?php $this->_p($contenttop) ?>” style=”T3xhtml” />
</div>
<?php endif ?>
[/PHP]

Thanks, My site has these pages with this code in these .php files.

After many, many, many, many, many hours of searching for the solution, doing file comparisons between my two sites, uninstalling and checking module and plugin in configurations I have FINALLY found out the answer.

On http://www.dmstinting.com.au the brick module is only allocated to the home page (only). This page is populated with Joomla Article content.

On http://www.justchillincampertrailerhire.com.au as I pointed out above, the brick module works fine on the pages with no K2 content. But any page (including the home page) that has content drawn from K2 the brick module doesn’t appear.

In the /templates/ja_argo/tpls/blocks/mainbody-content-left.php file that you mentioned above you neglected to include that the following lines 27-29 are relevant!

[PHP] if(JRequest::getCmd(‘option’) == ‘com_k2’ && in_array(JRequest::getCmd(‘view’), array(‘item’, ‘latest’))){
$hasContentTop = false;
}[/PHP]

Now I can’t read php to save my life but I take this to mean If there is ‘com_K2’ in view on the page then ‘$hasContentTop = false’

BINGO – simply change this to ‘…= true’ and the brick module appears on the K2 content pages!

Strange piece of code… don’t understand why you wouldn’t want the brick and K2 content appearing on the same page!

Now I can move on with my life….
