Hi there, I asked for help around this actually on this thread here https://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/compatible-with-easyblog-5-1/ and it was solved on my staging website as you can see from that thread. So I copied this easyblog theme to the live site where ES 5.1 is running and again I have the same issue of the theme not really be compatible as you can see here: https://www.business-achievers.com/news as the background of my posts is not white and some of the css does not seem to lineup as it should like in my staging site here: http://www.jamjosandbox.com/intranet/news

I actually copied the theme from the staging site to the live site so I have no idea why this would happen frankly. Any help would be much appreciated right now. Thanks James

Hi James,

As I can see it looks fine now, did you get it solved?

@saguaros no its not solved. What I see here on my live site is this: http://recordit.co/U3cs6vmkru please notice that the thumbnails are squashed into each other, also when you click into the post itself and view the single post in the second part of that video there is no white background and the spacings are off?

On the staging site none of these happen and the white background and spacings are all in place like so: http://recordit.co/dZ98bL21sT

I have cleared my cache on the live site but they are certainly not the same here? What is it that you see on the live site, if you could show me a screenshot here?

Also stackideas have confirmed the issues I have stated above as they needed to hack the EB theme you guys made just to get the new reactions area to work in EB 5.1

Hope this makes it more clear now.

Thanks James

Hi James,

It looks like you copied the theme but not compile yet as I can see it still loads the css for old version.

Try to backup all current css files first, then go to template manager > Compile LESS to CSS.

(Remember to backup first as when compiling less to css, the current css files will be overwritten)

Regards

Thanks for the support @saguaros i really appreciate that. You were exactly correct, by recompiling the less to css everything worked in nicely.

There is one element of the EB theme from joomlart that is not working with the latest EB V5.1 and that is the support for the new Reactions feature in EB 5.1 so what I did was add the necessary codes below in /components/com_easyblog/themes/ja_intranet/blogs/entry/default.php and the reactions are showing up now. So maybe you should add this to the theme at line 197 of that file default.php for others and for future proofing the update. Thanks

<?php if ($this->config->get(‘reactions_enabled’) && $this->entryParams->get(‘post_reactions’, true)) { ?>
<?php echo EB::reactions($post)->html();?>
<?php } ?>
