Hello again,
I´m looking for an idea how to put the gkTools from above the article to an other position like I did with some other things before. For example I put the article information (author, date) to the left of the article, above print and email things. That´s where I want to put the font resizer to, but It doesn´t seem to in the code of the /templates/gk_news2/html/com_content/article/default.php. Where is it hidden? In template options I can only decide if the font tools are shown, not where they should be.

And an other important problem: Does the template has no system-message area? I´m trying to debug a plugin. It has a special output on the message area for finding errors. When I change the template to some of the "normal" ones from my joomla installation, I see the debug information, in your template not. Can it be built in somehow? I think it´s an important thing to see system messages...

Hi

There is a message system at a very top of the screen:

Code: Select all
   <?php if(count($app->getMessageQueue())) : ?>
   <jdoc:include type="message" />
   <?php endif; ?>


For You other request I would first need to see a page You want to do this change too since You've mentioned making changes to it already. An access to FTP would be useful here as well, please use my PM to send it to me.

I see the code in the templates, but I have no output. No matter where I insert the code in the file, no message. I don´t know if it can be deactivated somehow, but then it wouldn´t be displayed when I switch to the default joomla templates.

One more mistake I have found:
I use a gallerie modul for my frontpage (slide event is the right one). Originally the container should resize with the window, the image is hidden on the margin. That is doing fine on the demo page (https://www.svenbluege.de/demo/, module "second latest") and on my page, when I use a standard template (you see in the attached picture). In news2 the image overlaps the right box. I deactivated my overrides, it wasn´t me :) It must be somewhere in the template. I tried to compare both templates but I don´t find the mistake.
But for general: How can I make a module-suffix for aligning the content of a certain module box? Most modules are done, but some won´t be aligned to the middle, they are always at the left.

The Font-resizer:
PN is out :) Thank you

Hi

Please make a new thread for the gallery issue. I think font-resizer will be hard enough to do. I got Your access, but right now all I can see on Your site is "Service Temporarily Unavailable". Or it's just a host name and I still do not know an url to the page with an example of font resizer and explanation where to move it to.

Hi

I've just checked FTP access to maybe find a clue about website's url and its not working:

530 Login incorrect. Please contact your web hosting service provider for assistance.

Sorry, i was a little confused about different accounts. Sent the right ones now.
I think, it would be enough if I could get rid of the complete position breadcrumbs only on the frontpage without having a gap remaining, it would be enough. I´d like to have my content directly under the slideshow. On other content I´ll use the breadcrumbs, so it would be okay with the tools on their original place in the breadcrumbs position.

Hi

Ok than. Your site is not using our template right now, so I cannot just make it for You since I only have an access to ftp.

Please check this article: https://www.gavick.com/documentation/jo ... omla-pages You will find a way how to hide sections and elements of selected pages, You may use it to hide breadcrumbs.

Of course I use this template. You see: http://www.testserver.grizzly-adams.de/
I have found the messages. They pop in and are gone in a millisecond. Where to make them stay?
With your link I have am least happy with no breadcrumbs on my frontpage but on articles. Yeah.
Now I still have a popping message bar

Please add this code to override.css and make sure override is enabled in template settings.

Code: Select all
#system-message-container {
    display: block !important;
}

Now the message is longer visible, but only when it´s triggered somehow, maybe when you log in with wrong data. But when I switch to an original joomla template the message position is always visible, not only on the loginpage when I force to give me a message.

Hi

What message You want to show there ? This place was made to appear only when there is a need to inform user about some problem. My code should make it not dissapear in such case. I thought, that was what You were asking for. I think You need to explain it to me one more time.

Not easy to explain, but I try:
I use a seperate plugin for og tags. This has an built in debug fuction. When I use one of the joomla templates the message is always visible, on every page. Like this: http://www.testserver.grizzly-adams.de/message_joomla.jpg.
On my site I can only see the message when it´s forced to give an output like a bad login attempt. Like this: http://www.testserver.grizzly-adams.de/message_news2.jpg
Seems like the message need an additional trigger to be shown in the News2-Template, the debug information doesn´t seem to be enough. In all other pages with no login the message doesn´t show. That´s where it works very different from the original joomla templates. I Right now I always switch template until I found out what tags are used for facebook sharing or better, why they are not. But it would be better if I could do this directly out of the news2-Template. For that I need the message box appearing on every page

I hope I have explained clearly what I mean...

Hi

I do not think it's a matter of a message display. I've checked the code in our and default joomla template (Protostar) and they are the same:

Code: Select all
               <jdoc:include type="message" />


so if there is a problem with this plugin working it may be because it's not loaded on some pages or jammed. It's very hard to tell. For sure nothing was done from our side to block it. I'm sorry, but I do not know how to help with this problem.

Okay, then I have to debug manually or switch the template. .
