Hello,

I have the Coolfoto I bought and on some articles, I lose the breadcrumb and top modules. Really, I do not understand what is going on.
Please would help me?
Here is an example of page: http://www.guillenphoto.com/cmstest/USA-Gulf-of-Mexico.html
Or you can go thru the menu http://www.guillenphoto.com/cmstest/Newsreel-examples.html

I also have a test environment. If you want I can give you acces to it.
I hope you will find a solution for us.
Thanks

Did you assign breadcrumbs module to all, except on "Home" menu?

Hello,

I did some other tests and it seems that I lose al a lot of modules in these pages. I found the same problems on an other page : http://www.guillenphoto.com/cmstest/Daedalus-reef-Red-Sea-Egypt.html. I can not display the breadcrumb, inset or modules.
If you go the mainpage http://www.guillenphoto.com/cmstest/en/ then chose Daedalus from the news tab, you will see the problem.
I do not have the problem on other pages. I do not do something special. I would like to understand what is going now.
I have created a test environment. If you want I can give an id and a password. Please contact me directly by email if you want to check.
Thanks for all

Hello,

The problem is really in the template. Why am I so sure?
During the last 3 days, we have recreated our website from scratch. We have reinstalled a full version of Joomla 1.5.20 and recreate a full new database. We have reinstalled all the components, modules and templates. We have recreated all the articles (they are written with Dream weaver). And the problem is still here.
Three days we thought that the problem was because we moved from a template written by JSNEpic to Coolfoto and our database was not cleaned. That is why we spent three full days to reinstall everything. Because the problem is still there we really think that it is a problem with the template.
Please would give us a solution?
Thanks

Hello,

we do not use the user positions for modules.
Please check that page: http://www.guillenphoto.com/cms/newsreel-examples.html
Then click Read More on Gulf of Mexico, page: http://www.guillenphoto.com/cms/USA-Gulf-of-Mexico.html and you will that the breadcrumb and other information disappear (langages, RSS). We do not have any modules displayed.

Hello,

I have a lot of problems with my test website. I have to clean it.
Regarding the problem we have with the breadcrumbs, here is how to check the problem with the main website:
- go to: http://www.guillenphoto.com/
- enter into the English version
- at the bottom of the page click "Traditional market in the suburbs of Cairo, Egypt"
You can see the breadcrumb appearing.
- now go back to the home page at the bottom of the page click "Al Qasr village, Western desert, Egypt"
There is no breadcrumb any more.

Please would find a solution for our problem.
As I said the test web site is a mess, please check the links I just gave you.
Thanks

Hi

I do not understand. Breadcrumb is visible at both sites ;/

I see the code to have article icons in line partialy worked :) Please just extend the value:

Code: Select all
div#mainbody_wrapper table.contentpaneopen:first-child {
float:right;
width:70px !important;
}

Hello,

I just found 30 minutes ago the solution for the breadcrumb and I was testing completely before posting a message. You can close the case. It is not a problem with Coolfoto Template but with Joomla.
Here is what I did.
Most of the article we had published in our website use a presentation with g_news. There is no Joomla menu pointing to the list of the article. We had the idea to create a such menu pointing for example to the list of the photo galleries. We set the breadcrumb to appear to that list and everything is fine.
To be simple, Joomla needs to have a menu pointed to a list of articles to have the breadcrumb activated. We have hidden the menu just in one page because we did not to present our work this way. So now even presenting our articles with gk_news we have the breadcrumb and the top module displayed.
Anyway, we spent a long to figure out a solution but now all is perfect and it works perfectly.
We think that Coolfoto and all the modules you provide was the solution for us to present our work on the web and 65 euros for a year is worth it.
Great job and thanks for your time
