Newsberg News-Rotation

Asked by Freiherr vom Stein 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

Hello,
A quick further question.
I am trying to set up the template from scratch since your quickinstall did not work. For the newsberg news rotation on the front page, I can't find an exact match in the page builder. Where do I have to look there? - If I want to rebuild it...

Also I would like to know if the news rotation can also show the last X posts from a certain category. At the moment I only see the option to add articles manually via the Add Article Button.
And one more question, are all the data and pages that are made with the pagebuilder also backed up with Akeeba backup?

Thanks and greetings

Hi there!

Sorry for your issue and the delayed response.

May I know about the problem you are facing with the Quickstart installation, please? If you want to start from scratch and you have an empty space then the quickstrat is the best choice.

Let me share the different between the Quickstart pack and the Template pack:

Here is the quickstart installation process:

I think you are talking about the Articles Thumb Slider addon, yes it is specially designed for the Newsberg template.

If you really need to use the template pack then the following blog post may help you to move the special addon from the Quickstart pack to your online site with template pack:

After the installation with QS- installer (newsberg_quickstart_j4_v2.0.0) I get an error on many many pages in the backend:

Missing field in database: Joomla\CMS\Table\Extension element.

This leads to the fact that in the Backend many pages are not to be opened.

For example I can't install any new extensions or languages etc. The installation has been completely redone on an empty server...
I have already looked through the tips and hints on the documentation and followed them. The error remains.

Same issue here - already removed everything from the server to do a complete reinstall - to no avail.

Would also be interested in a solution as I would like to use the features on my web site !

Thx in advance for your support

Hello,
Are there any solutions in sight with the Quickinstaller?
I mean it's been 3 weeks since the problem was reported.

Hi @Freiherr vom Stein,

Please take my sincere apology for not being there.

Can you update Joomla from Joomla itself? If not, can you do it manually?

Or, replace the table.php located in libraries/src/table with a updated file from a later version of Joomla.

This should help. If you are facing difficulty then kindly give me your FTP access, I will try to do it for you!

Best Regards

Hi,
I have full access to the server.
However - if I understand correctly - Joomla should be updated? But the latest version (4) is already installed and also on the latest state of the patches...

thx
