Hi,
I have a couple of questions about one website.

1.
I want the archive module to refer to one category. I entered the category to include, and the counts nest to the months are correct. See http://vrolijkzorgenkind.nl/blog
Then I click the month, and in the calendar all posts from that month show, not just the one category I wanted.
For instance: March 2015 has 5 posts. Three of them are in the category I included in the archive. The list correctly says "maart (3)", but when I click, 5 posts are shown. This is making the archive rather useless, because in another case (where I still need to do the update) different categories really represent different series of posts with different subscribers.

2.
Is there any way to show a list of the blogs, when you click on the month? Instead of the calendar I mean? The previous version of Easyblog had this option, and I really think that's what an archive should look like.

3.
De notification mail that is sent to subscribers contained a very curious code right before the introtext of the blog post. See screenshot. What can I do to prevent this?

I really hope you can help solve these issues!
Best,
Ineke
Hello Ineke,

I've modified your module to show the post in calendar based on the category. Can you please verify this?

As for the second question, I'm sorry but we have removed and replaced that with the calendar view. For the email issue, can I have your permission to post a test blog to check on that issue?

Hi Nick,
Thank you for changing the module. It seems to be working fine now. Could you please explaining what you changed so that I can do the same on other websites? Can I put it in an overwrite so that the changes won't get lost with updates? Or will this be fixed in the next version anyway?

It's a shame the list- view in the archive module was removed. I'll have to see if I can add that again, one way or the other. Any hints?

Yes you may post a test blog of course.

Best,
Ineke

Hello Ineke,

The changes is not only on the template file. So you can't use the template override method. This will be included in the next release. However, here are the files that has been modified:
../templates/vr_kind_template/html/mod_easyblogarchive/default_item.php
../components/com_easyblog/views/calendar/view.ajax.php
../components/com_easyblog/views/calendar/view.html.php
../components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/blogs/calendar/default.js
../administrator/components/com_easyblog/models/archive.php


Secondly, I've made a test post and has received the email. The email has no weird code inside: http://screencast.com/t/NbpxhkJQdmwt . May I know from where did you post the blog? Because I've checked your FaceTime blog and click the Toggle Editor button, I do see the extra class been added: http://screencast.com/t/nBMpXxGytg6

Hi Nick,
Okay, I'll check with my client. I'll instruct her that she needs to clear the formatting if she copies from Word (which maybe she does).
She's going to publish a new blog today.
Thank you for the list of files. Then I can copy them to the other websites.
Best regards en thank you for your help!
