Hi,

solution is very easy (one of them):

Create new Menu item "news2" but it must be Article Blog view, it will give you more code flexibility than using Module. And use it instead of current "news" page.

OR

if somehow, stubbornly you need to use Article addon or news module then you have to create a hidden "news2" menu item anyway Article Blog view, and choose category used in Addon/Module. Then set background for Page Title area. In that case all articles will have header background image.

It's not a bug nor issue, it's how Joomla works since 1.x

Remember that even on Blog view page you can still put extra modules, like newsletter etc.

Thanks. That works for what I wanted.

Am I correct that I can only create a single Articles Index page? Now that I have created one for the News category, I was thinking I could use it for another article category, but when I try to Add/New Article Page the index and detail are both greyed out.

Interesting development. I used the Dynamic Content Index/Detail for my Portfolio items and all works fine so far. However, for my News articles, there are a couple hundred of those existing as Joomla articles, so having to recreate them all as Dynamic items would be tough. Thus following the above instructions, I used the New Articles Details and Index Pages, which (mostly) works fine.

However, with my topper Section added to both the articles Index and the Details pages, that text/parallax section works just fine staying tight to the menu bar in the Index page, and if you go directly to the Details page, it also works fine. BUT...if you go to the Index page first, then clcik one of the news items links to the Details page, then that same top section has an incorrect white space between the menu bar and that section.

Interestingly, that does not happen with the Dynamic Content Index and Details pages. All works well there. Maybe there's a fix availble?

I did delete the Articles Detail page twice and started over fresh, but both times the same result. Works fine directly going to the page, but when getting there from the Index page, the top section does not stay up to the top.

Thanks.

Hi,

The following code in your custom CSS should remove that space:

.com-content #sp-main-body { padding: 0;}

Best regards,

Thanks. Have another issue now that I have the Articles Index and Detail pages working. As mentioned, I'm moving an old J-3 site over to a newly created J-6 site that uses a template that included SPPB, and I have imported a couple hundred Joomla articles from the old site. With your help, I now have most of those set up in the News category Index and Detail pages, and it seems to be working fine.

However, if I open one of those articles in Joomla for editing, I can edit them just fine in the J-Editor (using JCE). HOWEVER, if I click on the Edit in SPPB backend editor, I lose all article content after the Read Me. Obviously, I can't afford to lose all this content.

In searching this forum I did see a post about someone updating to SPPB v6.9.1 who then lost content and support gave that person a link to a "fixed" sppagebuilder php file. I don't know if that is something that would fix my issue or if there is a different fix. It would be helpful if I could edit these many legacy articles within SPPB, so hopefully there is a fix.

Thanks. My first use of SPPB, so I am learning slowly!
