hi. from here:

http://joomla25-templates.joomlart.com/ja_nex/all-category/africa.html

obviously it look good cause

1. the image loaded allmost same.
2. description intro done manually.

my question is is the way to limit the width n height of the image so that all article output same design?

also on intro , anyway to limit the intro characters? hard code php fix etc?

does the ja thumbnail can be used to achieve this purpose?

thanks

Hi stix,

1. The JA Thumbnail plugin can help you to set the intro image dimension: http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/564/9129008620.png

2. You can limit the intro text by opening this file: templatesja_nexhtmlcom_contentcategoryblog_item.php

And replace:
[PHP]<?php echo $this->item->introtext; ?>[/PHP]
With:
[PHP]<?php echo substr($this->item->introtext,0,150); ?>[/PHP]

150 here is limit number of characters, you can change to your desire one.

Hope this helps.
