Ongoing lack of plugin support

Asked by Chris Elliott 5 years ago Last activity 5 years ago

For many months now I, along with a number of other users, have complained about the lack of plug-in support within the SPPB component. The simple addition of the "content.prepare" function has been mentioned many times and Joomshaper have responded with "this is in our development plan", or "we hope to see this in version 4.0" but nothing has happened.

Your team regularly instruct us to use a custom module with " Prepare Content" and this was a functional workaround but this simply doesn't work any more!

Having upgraded to Joomla! 3.10.1, and to in the Helix Framework 2.0.4 over the weekend shows that if I have a known module within a Modiule Addon on a page, it will show the add-on title, and, if switched on, it will show the module title, so clearly it knows that the module exists. Howevere, it doesn't matter what I put in the module, (from simple text or more advanced content), absolutely nothing is displayed from the body of the custom module!!!

I will give you login details below in the hidden content section so that you can visit my draft website and I will provide instructions as to the current state of affairs.

About two years ago, I moved away from QUIX for a number of reasons but, the way that you guys are supporting us on this very simple yet extremely important topic is making me wonder if I made the right decision.

So, ultimately as of last week, custom modules worked, now they don't!

This is most urgent. Please help us to get this sorted quickly?

What exactly do you want put in your module

Having upgraded to Joomla! 3.10.1, and to in the Helix Framework 2.0.4 over the weekend shows that if I have a known module within a Modiule Addon on a page, it will show the add-on title, and, if switched on, it will show the module title, so clearly it knows that the module exists.

Try to check this issue. But, administrator login access does not work.

Got it your issue. I will share this issue to our developer team. I hope they will fix it next update. Also, we are working for the next update. Thanks

The lack of content prepare gave me fits this last weekend - I wound up recreating an SPPB construction out of core content, modules, loadposition, and a few hundred lines of css. A couple days spent purely because there is no prepare content so javascript-related items nested in the module would fire.

Please create here same issue. I will give you solution as soon as possible. Thanks

I've kitted up my own solution which is working ok so a solution is not needed now, but honoring modules that have 'prepare content' enabled would be a very desirable capability to make Joomla's best page builder even better. I was able to borrow quite a bit of css from the pagebuilder theme I liked.

Toufiq Senior Staff

If you give us time to fix this issue. It will be better for all of you guys. Just create the same issue in my domain. I will give you feedback as soon as possible. Thanks
