Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Can you can include your Joomla backend and FTP access at http://stackideas.com/dashboard/site so that we can check on this issue?

Hi,

I have added my details to profile yesterday but forgot to say it here. Sorry for that as I am working on website launch tomorrow and there still is a lot of things to take care of.

P.S. Why does single module eg. "latest blogs" load 1.5MB js+css when It uses 20 line of css (it shows few links to latest entries) ? The worst thing that I cannot disable it from module template file or settings but have to override directly on module itself which is going to be overridden after updates?
I have seen many extensions that allow to override this in template or settings. I mean this is great extension and so flexible but this is gross oversight!

Hi Dainius Stepulevicius,

I am sorry for the late reply and inconvenience caused for this. Kindly please find my response to your inquiries below:

upload button (area where says "click here to upload a photo") in not working not working when selected image posting. Works only when I drag in photo inside and it starts uploading.

Also, upload button not working in new post when I choose template and click on upload button, but browse media button works fine.

-> Regarding this issue, seems like we cannot access you composer in the front end where your server do not allow it to be access. It is occurred on your end for this development site and actual site?(please refer my attached screenshot)

2. Why does single module eg. "latest blogs" load 1.5MB js+css when It uses 20 line of css (it shows few links to latest entries) ?

-> Perhaps you can provide us some screenshot of the source load 1.5MB js+css, so we can look into this.

3. The worst thing that I cannot disable it from module template file or settings but have to override directly on module itself which is going to be overridden after updates?

-> I'm bit lost here, what exactly you want to disable from the module template. Actually, our modules also can make template overrides.
You can follow this Templates Overrides Documentation.
By the way, if you disable some of the settings from the module, it would not effected if you update to the next version.

Hi there,

thank you for your time & patience so far. I have sorted the access to development hosting. I use very strict joomla access and didn't expect that your extension require direct call to its own php files.

Please feel free to test it out.

My test results So far

WINDOWS
IE11 - quick posting not working at all. After click web loads and nothing happens
Chromes - fine
Firefox -fine

LINUX
Chromium - quick post upload button (area where says "click here to upload a photo") in not working not working when selected image posting. Works only when I drag in photo inside and it starts uploading.
normal posting when template is selected upload button not working but browse media button works fine.

Firefox -fine

here are screenshots confirming what I have said. The module on the right "news" is the latest blog module that loads unnecessary 1.5MB of jss+css and there is definitely no option in the module backed to disable it. I only require 20 lines of CSS.

I have included screenshot of file content showing which lines in module include excessive script.
modules/mod_easybloglatestblogs/mod_easybloglatestblogs.php

Please correct me if I am wrong but why not add script/css inside the module template file below. Then everyone could disable in template override but now I have to edit module file directly and it will be overridden after updates ....
modules/mod_easybloglatestblogs/tmpl/default.php

Sorry for double posting, but system won't let me edit my post get error
Unable to load composer.

Script & CSS files were uncompressed when screenshots were taken.

I've tested from my Windows edge browser + reduce to IE 11 version in your test site, it seems work fine, you can take a look of my attached screenshot below.

May i know do you already comment up the code from the module? Because now it seems like load less jss+css.

By the way, that css+js is need to load when you display the module on the page, because we have an option to change the module styling e.g. display horizontal and vertical mode and support responsive.

we will see if we can implement a setting to turn it off and without cause other issue in the future.

Hi,

Ok. I just had one of weirdest IE11 glitch of all time. I was testing for this IE because it's used by clients as main browser. Once I checked on the client browser it worked fine!
Since mine and client browser version different (mine is newer) I thought it might be a version bug. So after extensive testing apparently my IE was refusing to load this quick post link explicitly (from sidebar menu)
http://www.talentmatchbirminghamsolihull.org/ab_website/latest-news/dashboard/quickpost

but loading direct links fine
http://www.talentmatchbirminghamsolihull.org/ab_website/latest-news/dashboard/quickpost/qoute
http://www.talentmatchbirminghamsolihull.org/ab_website/latest-news/dashboard/quickpost/links

so I tried to add last forward slash at the end!!! and it worked!!! but it wasn't working without it.
http://www.talentmatchbirminghamsolihull.org/ab_website/latest-news/dashboard/quickpost/

then I cleaned all history etc, tried again and it worked without any problems (that's why I newer used or ever use IE in my life) - this is one of craziest things I have ever seen.
So yeah, it's working.
P.S. in compatibility mode versions it worked fine even when it wasn't working in normal one.
So for now just upload button doesn't work in linux chromium, but i doubt anyone will use it to post articles. I mark this one as fixed.

Regarding scripts+css, I have commented it out on my website as fix for now. It would be great addition if you add an setting to disable it in module settings menu. Anyone customising web for max performance who aims for mobile friendly and fast website would appreciate it (including me).

Thank you for great support, keep up the great work!
