Article Description does Not Work With Page Builder Editor
Andreas
I have a question about news and how they are displayed when using SP page builder to create articles and news and not using Joomla's standard editor.
Often when using a third party to display the news in a good way, there is often the option to display the description and then you choose how many letters it should display, etc.
In the vast majority of cases when you do this, the module cannot display the description at all, but only displays the title of the article.
It is the same problem if I use your own way of displaying articles on a page with the article element. It then only shows a "Read more" link instead of the description.
What can I do to solve this, am I the only one who missed something?

Accepted AnswerApolozy for the inconvenience. Have you checked the SP Page Builder "Article" addon? It includes an option to show or hide the intro text and limit the number of characters displayed prnt.sc/rH3RI9k2Rz8h. Please refer to the documentation for more details.
However, please note that the intro text is sourced from Joomla’s standard article content. If you are creating articles entirely with SP Page Builder, the description will not be automatically extracted. To ensure the description is displayed, you need to add the content directly to Joomla’s core article editor in the "Article Text" sections. Let me know if you need further clarification.

Accepted AnswerThat's the problem, then you can't use SP Page Builder if you want to have a presentation of articles with a description. It's very sad.
The setting in the addon with show description makes no difference.

Accepted AnswerThanks Atick for that video.
But the problem is the same for you in that video, the article description is missing. I don't really know what the video is supposed to say :)
But I thank you for your commitment!

Accepted AnswerJust add the descrition in the 'Article Text' area of the Joomla editor tinyurl.com/27bbj2tg, then save it. Then select 'SP Page Builder' tinyurl.com/23xgsjr2 and create your article. The descrition will be take from the core joomla content not SP Page Builder content.
