When I set up a category blog menu navigation, the articles are coming into the designated page. However, if that article has an image set to either left justify or right justify with a text wrap, the image is appearing at the top of the article and not going to the left or to the right.

If I turn the category blog navigation into a direct link to article, the page appears just fine with the image either justified to the left or to the right.

I am using the Category /Blog functionality so that I can build pages and have them publish on dates in the future. But when I check the functionality to make sure the page is going to display correctly, the images show up at the top of the page.

Also, one of the articles has two images in it. When the article is viewed from a menu navigation direct to the article, you can see both images. When the article is viewed from a Category Blog, it only shows the first image and places it at the top.

Two files attached – they are labeled correct and incorrect.

Using JALead, Joomla Version 1.5.14

Any help would be appreciated.

Dear caclemor!

The issue is mensioned in the “MIJ_Incorrect.jpg ” image, this is not a problem, this article is displaying on the “heading” position.

Now you access the menu which using this blog layout, i ‘ll set the value 0 for # Leading parameter.

Good luck.

Hello,

When using a category blog layout using 2 columns, the articles always display in 1 column only. I have tried googling for an answer, but the issue most have is when there are only two articles. I have 9 and no matter what i try they continue to display in one column.
Current settings are
No leading, 10 Intro text and 2 columns.

I am still having the same issue. When I set the front page blog to bring the new article in on the new date, the first image on the page showed but the text didn’t wrap around the picture. The second half of the page showed but the second image didn’t.

So it does not appear to be working correctly still. I finally just had to go point the menu to the static article page to make it work.

There was also another page that I created with the updated changes to be published on the new date. This article also had an image in the top left-hand corner with text wrapped around it. When the new article updated and replaced the old article, the article came in as planned but again the picture stayed at the top but all the text dropped below the picture and did not wrap. So again, I had to go and point the menu item to the static article page to make it appear correctly.

The attached screen shot shows the article duplicated so that the blog functionality should work and as you will see by the red arrow, there is no second picture. the url to the picture is http://www.mensinnerjourney.org/images/mij_issue.jpg

I created these articles the same as I would with any article so how are you indicating that the HTML is not standard? I am not following your recommendation and don’t understand what you are saying.

Plus, to refer me to the http://templates.joomlart.com/ja_lead/ is just showing me the template on your demo. It doesn’t provide the details of what is causing this issue.

Please provide a more in depth explanation.

Here is the code for the article that is causing the issues with the pictures:

<p style=”text-align: center;”><img style=”margin: 5px; float: left;” alt=”mij_page_prayer” src=”images/stories/programs/mij_page_prayer.jpg” height=”188″ width=”150″ /><span style=”font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;”><span style=”font-size: 14pt;”><strong>THE MEN’S INNER JOURNEY</strong></span><br /><span style=”font-size: 14pt;”>An adventure in Self Discovery</span><br /><br />Los Angeles May 13 – 16<br />Seattle July 29 – Aug. 1<br /><br />Learn More<br /><a href=”index.php?option=com_content&view=category&id=71:evening-sessions&layout=blog&Itemid=108″>Attend an Intro Night</a><br />Los Angeles ~ Palm Springs ~ Seattle ~ Riverside, CA<a href=”index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=108:mens-inner-journey-reservation&catid=62&Itemid=95″><br />REGISTER</a></span></p>

DEar wombat1!

As default, the template only support display articles on once column, so that you must to change css code to complete this task:

Please open the file: /templates/ja_lead/css/template.css and find code :

.article_separator, .article_seperator {
background: url(../images/dot.gif) repeat-x left center;
display: block;
height: 20px;
margin: 0;
clear: both;
}

and replace:

.article_separator, .article_seperator {
}

and add the following css code into the template.css file:

.cols2, .cols1 {
float:left;
width:50%;
}

Good luck

Dear caclemor!

Pls see my snapshort:
7350

1) The template is only support display one image for each articles display in the listing
2) l the text dropped below the picture and did not wrap because the design of blog layout item: split 2 parts : a part is using for wrap a image having the left alignment, other is using for wrap a introtext having the right alignment,

Hello

Thank you for the help, however the code you supplied will remove the separator and clear from all articles.
Before i go ahead and implement this could you please look at this page –
http://eddiemora.com/en/works
this is a Section blog instead of a category blog, and as can be seen, without any editing the template works properly using two columns setting.
whereas in
http://eddiemora.com/en/works/discography
the exact same two column setting results in one column only.
So the template works with two columns in Section blog, but not in Category blog.

I noticed that blog.php exists for both category and section as a separate file, and the code in each of these for displaying _intro_articles is different.
I would just copy the relevant code accross from one blog.php to the other however i imagine this will be a problem.
Hate to be a hassle but perhaps there is something that i could edit in php code rather than edit the css formatting for all articles??

Thanks in advance.

actually your observation is not correct. in the article itself, when I set it up, both images are on the left and text wraps to the right of the picture. both pictures are done this way.

so you are still not understanding the issue. These pages display correctly if you point the menu navigation straight to the article. when you point them to a category blog, it doesn’t work.

the home page currently is pointed straight to the article. that is why it looks correct. please go look at it and you will see what I am saying
