I’m trying to update my site to use this template but I’m finding a lot of little bugs. Here’s my list so far:
1. Slideshow Description doesn’t seem to work properly: The description I’m using on my current site (also a Joomlart template) correctly links my slideshow images to other pages on my site. With this template the slideshow images aren’t linking. I have ShowDescription = “Description Only” but it doesn’t work. Neither do the other options. Also, text does not display on the slideshow image. Here’s the description I’m using:

<p>Augue neque rutrum elit vitae nec in pretium et faucibus In</p>

2. Breadcrumbs module shows up even if you disable or uninstall it. This seems to be the case on every template and it should be fixed.
3. When using the Red template color, some Module titles are half red and half black (see “Performance & Recovery Products” on my site – http://www.redpointnutrition.com/2).
4. “Latest News” module changes the link on articles. On my current live site, for example, a link is:
http://www.redpointnutrition.com/2/news/315-climbing-shoe-review-wwwclimbingshoereviewcom

but when I enable this module it changes the link to:

http://www.redpointnutrition.com/2/home/315-climbing-shoe-review-wwwclimbingshoereviewcom

Obviously this breaks my module position mapping (i.e. I have modules that I display on Home but not on News menus).

Am I the only one that’s run into these issues? I figured that by choosing an older template that most of the bugs would have been fixed but it doesn’t appear to be the case.

Dear jhendric1000,

Certainly the above issues are being reported to the developers for fixes. I wanted to inform you of JA Mesolite II coming up as bonus release, which runs on T3 Framework. May be you can try it out too, if you can wait for a week, it will give you all the benefits of T3 framework..

Only few additional improvements are being worked upon currently, If you wish i can provide the pre-release copy of the same for your testing right away. Please PM me if you are interested.

Hi jhendric1000

I would like to answer your questions as follows:

1. Slideshow Description doesn’t seem to work properly: The description I’m using on my current site (also a Joomlart template) correctly links my slideshow images to other pages on my site. With this template the slideshow images aren’t linking. I have ShowDescription = “Description Only” but it doesn’t work.
=> You are using ja slideshow2 module. In this template, we are supporting ja slideshow module. For the reason, please send me your admin account so that i could have a closer look on the issue

2. Breadcrumbs module shows up even if you disable or uninstall it. This seems to be the case on every template and it should be fixed.
=> Please open templates/ja_mesolite/index.php file, find following code section:


<?php if(!$tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>

<div id="ja-pathway">
<strong><?php echo JText::_('YOU ARE HERE:'); ?> </strong><jdoc:include type="module" name="breadcrumbs" />
</div>

<?php endif ; ?>


and change to:

<?php if(!$tmpTools->isFrontPage()) : ?>
<?php if($this->countModules('breadcrumbs')) : ?>
<div id="ja-pathway">
<strong><?php echo JText::_('YOU ARE HERE:'); ?> </strong><jdoc:include type="module" name="breadcrumbs" />
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif ; ?>

3. When using the Red template color, some Module titles are half red and half black (see “Performance & Recovery Products” on my site – http://www.redpointnutrition.com/2).
=> If you change to other themes, you will see it too. this is default of our template.

4. “Latest News” module changes the link on articles.
=> This module is default of joomla. We don’t do any change.

This is great news! Can you confirm that the new release includes the VirtueMart shopping cart? Do you have an expected release date?
