Hi,

Did you try with Spotlight block?

Hello,
Yes, I tried it. But it only works within the one very page that I use it into. I’m looking for a way to create a sidebar for all the articles that can exist in joomla as in a blog. May be I’m using wrong the spotlight option?

I followed the instructions you put in this URL for a default joomla page "https://www.joomlart.com/documentation/joomla-templates/ja-builder#joomla-page" but the content covers most of the available space and the sidebar is taken to the bottom. I analysed the classes and I couldn’t find something like a max-widht parameter. So, if the content has no
tags it is showed in a single line. I think it has something to do with the classes. I’ll report if I find out what is happening.

I’ll appreciate any idea any way

Hi,

I tried this way:

• In the Main menu (for example), I create a new menu item for a Single Article page
• Assign JA Builder template to this new page
• On frontend > click Edit, you will see as this screenshot: http://prntscr.com/efes09

As you can see, the sidebar will next to the content and assign module you wish there.

Regards

Hello Saguaros,

Thank you. That is the way I did it. I gave it a try one more time following the next steps (you can see the steps in the attached image):

1 To be sure that JA builder theme was assigned to the menu.
2 On frontend the theme shows and the text line goes off the browser margins. There is no Sidebar showing. I click Edit.
3 I change the width for both columns (content and sidebar) and set them 8 and 4 respectively. I set the position "sidebar" as the one to render in the column of the right. Then I publish the page.
4 On the front end there is no change. The text keeps going off margins and there is no sidebar column.
5 Browsing to the bottom of the page I can see the module "Lo más leido" rendering at the bottom of the content column.

inspecting the code (second image) I can see that the class of the content column is col-md-9 and the one for the sidebar is col-md-3. I think they should be 8 and 4 since that was the setting. So I guess the problem is that the builder is not updating the column’s widths.

I’ll keep on trying.

You can also share the admin login info of your site so I will take a look.

Hi Gabriel,

I published the page again and add this custom style:

.jub-block .blog-featured img {
    width: 100%;
}

via Settings > Custom Styles and the featured articles page looks fine now.

Regards
