HI
I have a few issues.

1. When I use autopost to Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin - the URL that is posted is like this
http://www.sysfix.co.uk/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=entry&id=70

however in my joomla, the actual url is this
http://www.sysfix.co.uk/Blog/Easyblog-joomla-review.html
and the non-sef url is index.php?option=com_easyblog&Itemid=695&id=70&lang=en&view=entry which is slightly different.

2. When in the template mode - I cannot select font color and then highlight the HEX color code. I need to copy the code so I can then set up the next blog post using the same color. It's impossible to use your mouse to find the exact color from the color wheel.

3. When inserting an image and then adding image text (description) - there is no option to make some text bold. Using HTML markup <strong> does not work either.
There is an option to do this in the add text box but not in the add text for images.
Hi Paul,
1. Do you post your blog posts from frontend or backend? Did you install any 3rd party SEF extension in your site? If you installed Sh404sef, you have to publish posts from frontend because Sh404sef does not trigger SEF from backend.
2. We are currently checking on this. Just to confirm, you meant the font color selection for text selection in the composer correct?
3. Currently we do not have the feature to style the image caption in the composer. But if you really want to, you can apply custom css override to make it bold.

Can you also provide us your site access at http://stackideas.com/dashboard/site so we can better help you out with your issues?

Hey Paul,
It seems like there is some issues with your backend login credentials. Can you recheck your backend access and update the details in your site details?

For the font color selection, the bug is proving to be quite a difficult task to fix. I suggest that you switch to JCE Editor at the moment which is able to achieve what you want with copying and pasting HEX codes (refer link).

Q: if I create a post under the template method, can you switch editors and edit without losing anything. Thanks

Hey Paul,

If the first time you using `Easyblog build-in` composer to create your post, unfortunately that was not possible to switch this `build-in composer` to another Joomla default editor e.g. Tiny-mce or JCE-editor.

Because Joomla default editor do not know how to render all the HTML content from Easyblog build-in composer.

The only way you can do is re-create again with your post in your site.

okay so in that case, using JCE editor is not a resolution as we would then lose the functionality of the templating composer. At least you have found the bug on your side. We could write down the hex code but we can''t even type it in to keep using that color on other posts. Let me know when you have a resolution to this. Thanks
