Hi,

I wasn’t exactly sure if this has been answered or not but here goes:

I want to use the “image” content type for my featured articles so they all look like images like the sample site (e.g. ).

However when the article is clicked I want the popup to contain more that just one image and I want to have custom text descriptions (Like the content type “text”). I don’t want to use the “text” content type though because it doesn’t look as nice in the grid. Is there any way I can customize this?

@matsilra,

I’m afraid the customization you expect is beyond scope of our support, you need to handle this at your end.

Do you have any suggestions on where to start?? This seems like a pretty ridiculous constraint for the template. It’s really too much to ask to have one cover image and then have the content from in the actual article populate instead of one additional image with no text??

If it’s beyond the scope of your support how do you expect me to figure it out??

This is what I get for premium support? Can you at least suggest where I should look to begin to customize?

Hi Matsilra,

I’m not with Joomlart, but I thought I would help you out since I had a similar problem. I downloaded and replaced these 2 files that Ninja Lead posted on another thread and now my “image content” pops up with the image and the associated text with it (unlike before where there was no text). I believe this will solve your first problem.

Now for your other problem of adding multiple images to the article, did you want an image gallery sort of thing? Because I believe that there are some extensions that you can add on to your article to have an image gallery. Or maybe just add the images straight into your text? Either way, I hope this helps out a bit.

Did you give it a try with this solution?

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks phutikanit it worked like a charm… I actually saw that thread but based on the description I didn’t know if it would apply to my issue, but it worked perfectly. I just meant I wanted to have text and multiple images in the body of a post, I don’t need a gallery, it was just that the default for this template makes it so that if you have image article type that you can only have one image in the details of the post, which was extremely restrictive for me.

Thanks again!
