I am trying to setup a blog page. I selected a few articles to be displayed (also featured them). These are articles which are also displayed in the demo page of Fixel.

Unfortunately, it keeps on showing a post oif “What’s new in 1.5?”.

I just want the blog to look as the one in the demo. How can I do this?

In the menu manager, I selected for the blog the following menu item type: Archived Articles. Is that correct?

Thanks in advance!

Hi bvk1987,

Do you mean this blog page: http://joomla-templates.joomlart.com/ja_fixel/index.php/en/j-blog?

Here is config of this blog page:

It should have menu item type of Category Blog

Hi,

Indeed, I am referring to the j-blog page.

The problem is, I can’t find the “category blog” at “menu item type”. It shows when I click “select”:

– Contacts
– Articles
– Smart Search
– Newsfeed
– Search
– Tags
– Users manager
– Weblinks
– Wrapper
– JoomShopping
– System links

Where can I find the “category blog”?

When you click to Select a Menu item type, a popup should appear and under Articles list, you can select Category Blog

I am using T3. Under articles is listed:

– Archived articles
– Single article
– List all categories
– Featured articles
– Create article

There is no blog option..

I did spend quite sometimes to debug this issue you have mentioned above and phew, I finally got it all figured out. The issue related to the missing folder: COM_CONTENT (components/com_content/views/category), probably have been deleted earlier on.

That explained why all the customizations you have made on the Fixel Category Blog(JA Fixel template), Category Blog and Category List (COM_CONTENT) did not show up on your site. But no problem, that got fixed, so now it’s running just fine.

You can check this out yourself. The Fixel Category Blog(JA Fixel template), Category Blog and Category List (COM_CONTENT) on Menu Item Type are now BACK.

I hope this helps in anyway. In case it didn’t, please do not hesitate to shoot back to me.

Thank you so much, it seems to work now! I am now working on my first article!

edit: A small question left, in which file can i change the test in the “read more” button? That should be in Dutch.

You can find and change it as my below suggestion

Open language/en-GB/en-GB.tpl_ja_fixel.ini file

FIXEL_COM_CONTENT_REGISTER_TO_READ_MORE ="Read more"
FIXEL_COM_CONTENT_READ_MORE ="Read more"
FIXEL_COM_CONTENT_READ_MORE_TITLE ="Read more"
