I am unable to change the settings of JA News Featured in my admin panel. Thought the problem might be the version, so I just updated to the latest release, 2.5.3.

I want to change the “Articles Sorted By:” section from Date to Ordering.

When I make the change and click any Save button, nothing happens. I click Close and re-open the module’s config section, and see that nothing changed. Articles are still sorted by Date.

Just found this happens with JA News – Default Layout also. Can’t edit anything in the admin panel.

Anyone else see this?

Other modules work fine for me. Permissions are fine.

Hi,

Pls try to clean T3 cache & Joomla cache in Site >> Maintenance.

I will give you better solution when you can send me PM with your admin login info (also backend url).

I clean both caches regularly, even have a chron that does so for me every 30 min.

Will shoot you a PM. Thanks, Leo.

Leo:

I see you logged on and did an upgrade of JA News Featured. I want to thank you for that.

You also saw, no doubt, that the module’s settings still will not update from the Admin page.

Is there a file I can edit on the server so I can change some settings?

Hi,

Yes. Pls login to your server & check out the permissions to all files in modules/mod_janews_featured/admin/japrofile/
Make sure that they are set with 644 permisions, the folder 775. Because I still got error message:

<blockquote>Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden) </blockquote>

* Don’t forget to inform me your result.

Pls, anyone: Is there a file I can edit on the server so I can change some settings?

I searched PHPMyAdmin and was able to change one setting: successfully changed “Articles Sorted By” to “ordering.”

Need to change “Autoplay” to “Yes.” Where can I do that in PHPMyAdmin?

Here’s PHPMyAdmin’s settings:

{“moduleclass_sfx”:”-xxxxxx”,”source”:”JANewsHelper”,”catsid”:[“”],”k2catsid”:[“”],”getChildren”:”1″,”featured”:”only”,”ordering”:”ordering”,”sort_order”:”DESC”,”profile”:”default”,”JPlugins”:”1″,”K2Plugins”:”1″,”cache”:”1″,”cache_time”:”4″}

What can I change there so the module autoplays?

Hi,

<blockquote>What can I change there so the module autoplays?</blockquote>
The settings of JA News Pro module is located in profiles (modulesmod_janews_featuredprofiles).
i. e (Profile teline iv):

{"themes":"telineiv","animType":"animNewsMoveHor","duration":"500","autoplay":"1","autoplay_duration":"10000","numberofheadlinenews":"14","bigitems":"1","bigmaxchars":"250","smallmaxchars":"80","showhlreadmore":"1","showtooltip":"1","thumbnail_mode":"crop","use_ratio":"1","bigshowimage":"1","bigimg_w":"412","bigimg_h":"230","smallshowimage":"1","smallimg_w":"128","smallimg_h":"128","align":"0"}

And I’m sorry for my late response. Can you send me your valid ftp account for correcting JA News Pro module issue (Can’t save) ?
I couldn’t access the cpanel account that you sent me.
Thanks !

Hi frodojrr,

The issue is caused by the rules in your .htaccess file which make all urls redirecting to our JA News Featured module not accessible. :

RewriteRule ^(components|modules|templates|images|plugins|media|libraries|media/jui/fonts)/ - [F]

The solution: Put our extra rule in this .htaccess file:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.enewspf.com/modules/mod_janews_featured/admin/japrofile/helper.php$ [NC]

Now you can save the JA News Featured module as usual. Pls check it out.
