    What is happening?

    Yesterday everything worked fine, but today (with no apparent reason) the front page won’t load completely.

    Ja_news just loads first section title, and there should be 7 more sections (with article titles), and modules all around page – but there aren’t any.

    I need to get this to work ASAP. I would appreciate any suggestion.

    Site is live and address is http://www.pomakonline.com

    some info:
    1. i’m using 1.2 beta version (it worked fine for 5 months now)

    2. i tried to install 1.2.1 version from ja_dravity template, but that messed up my layout with different css code (but that worked)

    Could you check this?

    Can you go to the Modules panel (back end), see if “ALL” is checked? If not, can you check ALL in the JA News — in terms of where it should be displayed.? And then see if it shows up.

    Try to use the one from Dravity,but use the css from the 1.2beta version, or there might be a setting in the backend of the module to use module css, you can try to set that to off.

    this doesn’t help. (and even if it does – i wouldn’t want to have ja_news module on every single page)

    but thanx for trying.

    I tried all of that, but stuff get messed up preety bad… One setting even returned blank page with two error lines of code… then I quit trying that direction, and logged here…

    do you have half an hour to check this out for yourself, and try somethnig i maybe skipped?

    It happened in one of my recent installations Menalto , but it was the FrontPage module that did not appear in the Homepage. I cannot recall now if it was the one where I had the Teline II v.1.4 or the JA News Component. Initially, it looked like the Demo.

    What happened was that I created many new Sections, in fact, I unpublished most of the old Sections. Whether it is random or not, at some point the FrontPage module (front kend) disappeared. I had to check “ALL” to make the FrontPage module

    In fact, there were several bugs, and they did not occur at the same time, last night I noticed the images in the features part of the JA News FrontPage suddenly were not showing. I had to correct to make them appear too.

    There are some subtle changes like those too. I am not sure what trigger them. Very odd.

    OK. i stopped trying.

    now i have installed dravity version of ja_news, and fighting with restoring proper css scheme back on

    i ran over module’s ja.news.css with green.css (from within template dir).

    but i can’t get section titles to appear like headline title (like it was before (green background and white title))

    maybe little help with that?

    Do a Page View Source, and isolate the group of CSS specifications that surrounds the Section names and the space around it. I assume you know how to change CSS specifications?

    My guess is that they will be found in the template.css

    Via FTP

    templates => ja_teline_ii => css => templates.css

    That should solve the problem.

    You are using the css from the module and not from the template.
    Can you paste a screenshot from the module setups backend?

    I hope you get what I’m talking about. I disabled module’s CSS because it makes some weird stuff… there are elements overlapping…

    @cornelio
    I found that I have to put title inside span element called title-r but i can’t find file that contains that line of code… it isn’t template.css…

    i think that this is very easy to solve, but i just can’t find line of code to modify to get wanted results…

    waiting for your suggestions.. if someone has a little time, i’m will give you my access data so you can try for yourself….

    I found solution for padding…

    now just that headline stuff.

    and is it possible to put separator line between rotating part and static part of the module?

    HI avekic,

    I understand what you were trying to show, because I did the reverse for the original Teline, the key is to find the nested divs and spans.

    Here is a trick, I learned, I add temporarily a “solid border” and padding to the css specifications I want to modify:

    like this:


    existing css specification
    {
    existing specifications
    padding: 10px 10px 10px 10px; /* t r b l */
    border: solid;
    border: 1px 1px 1px 1px;

    }

    where
    the ones in bold are added
    /* t r b l */ is not a specification but a note to webdesigner
    t => top
    r => right
    b => bottom
    l => left
    by varying the values systematically, you can find out the position.

    your first object is to the nested divs.
    find the outer wrapper to inner wrapper
    then systematically change the paddding depending on the position as indicated /* t r b l */

    to avoid confusion, once you are done with a group of nested divs, change

    border: solid; => border: none;

    the aforementioned last step is very important

    this process is very time consuming, it takes me days to do it, because I go back and forth

    Like Menalto, I can only provide some ideas on how you can find them. There is a project we want to start,. and we are way behind.

    Cornelio, thanx for detailed explanation.

    I’ll try to work something out in that direction, but i posted another, more specific pic, and if someone knows any faster workaround, or tip, i would much appreciate it.

    I think if I remember correctly, I have to fool the system, I have to place something inside, like a period or something for the background color to fill the space, I forgot now.

    [QUOTE=avekic;67033

    Yes, you can. Check the border specifications I outlined above. You can select the color, the thickness or even the relative length of the border. To create this horizontal border, just select either the top or bottom (just one) and keep everything else zero — but you have to know how to insert this in the script, or find an existing css that is a wrapper. Be very careful when doing this. You can mess up the whole thing, if you do not this systematically.

    One system I adopted is this:

    .divclass

    (
    specifications here
    } /* orig (include original here) added (include those added to the above) */

    Check the css files of Joomlart, and check how they do borders exactly. The ones I posted above are based from my recollection that I have not done for a long long time.
