Where does The Layout Of The News, Sports, Tech, Etc Pages Come From In Gazette Template?

Template 3 years ago

I have a copy of the Gazette Quickstart that has some layouts that I would like to replicate and I am wondering if you can tell me where the layout is coming from?

http://test3.theraliv.org/index.php/en/news-page

I am developing my site temporarily at test1.theraliv.org and am trying to figure out how to get my content to flow into that template layout.

Here is one of the pages I would like to get to use this layout:

https://test1.theraliv.org/jewish-life

And also

https://test1.theraliv.org/lchaim

Thank you very much,

Sean Carney

I figured out why the articles were not flowing into my other pages. It was because the top categories were not displaying subcategory items which is something that I always do. Anyhow, I found the setting in the Blog/Featured layouts (Include Subcategories) that would allow subcategories to flow in. That brings me to some other questions but not to be asked in this ticket. I would say this ticket is resolved.

I had assumed these layouts could come when we copied the template data by importing the .json file. But, apparently that did not work. At this point I am wondering if there another way for me to replicate those layouts.

You will notice also that I only have one of my category page that is actually pulling in content. It does not look anything like your template though. The other category pages are not pulling in any content and the reason is not apparent. I keep trying to figure it out.

This is what those layouts should look like: https://demo.joomshaper.com/?template=gazette

You will then have to click on Tech or one of the other menus.

This is how it looks in your Quickstart: http://test3.theraliv.org/index.php/en/tech-page

Both of these layouts look GREAT. Mine do not. :-(

I sure wish one of you could tell me what is wrong with my templates, especially if it is user error. But, I am also wondering if the problem could be on your side. I created images on lightshot and verified the links I provided you were good but then when I returned some hours later the lightshot urls brought up broken image pages. So, I have changed to use a google drive.

Hi there!

Thanks for your query.

It is looking good at my end. Did you mean the images not shown issue, actually? If yes, then the following doc link will explain it: https://www.joomshaper.com/documentation/joomla-templates/gazette/no-photos-from-demo

You need to re-upload the images, for articles the featured images within the Blog Options tab of Article edit window.

Hope this helps anyways.

Best Regards

Thank you Rashida,

I was aware that the images in our demo page belong to you and cannot be distributed to us.

I am mostly concerned about the images in the layout. But, maybe you have given me the right answer now. I have been adding images to the Images and Links tab as an Intro Image and a Full Article Image. But, it appears that I need to also upload a featured image in the Blog options in order for the images to show up on our pages in the Joomla or Joomshaper modules?

I did not realize that all of the images in the grey boxes with the dimensions were actually images you have uploaded. Interesting. That of course makes sense.

I will let you know as soon as I figure out whether what you are suggesting fixes my issues. Thank you.

Sean

Rashida,

Your answer is correct and is making my page come alive beautifully at https://test1.theraliv.org/jewish-life and I am very grateful.

That totally answered one of my questions. I am wondering if you might be willing to answer my next question which is to explain to me why the articles are NOT flowing to my other pages. ie. The other pages are only showing the subcategory descriptions and images. But, they are not showing any of the Joomla articles.

For example: https://test1.theraliv.org/lchaim

Thank you so much for getting us on track here.

Sean
