Using your Echo template and using Joomla's core content Category Blog Layout does not accept changes you make. Example if I want 3 columns for intro articles it works in prostar, however does not work in echo. I was under the assumption that the echo template was compatible with Joomla core content, is this correct and if so how to I fix this issue, thanks.
Hey Carl,

Currently that was not support to show multiple columns on Joomla category blog layout in Echo template yet.

But I will lock this into our issue tracker, we will see if we can implement this in next release version.

Is it possible to guide us how to create 3 columns in this Joomla category blog layout? Because i tested in my locally, it seems like it only can show 2 columns by default, you can refer on my attached screenshot below.

I am really sorry but unfortunately we cannot provide our Skype contact, thanks for understand.

Regarding with your current question, i did explained in my previous response currently that was unable to show multiple columns on Joomla article listing page in Echo template yet.

But I already locked into our issue tracker, in case our designer ask me how to create 3 columns for Joomla article listing page, it would be best if you can provide us some of the screenshot how to configure to show 3 columns on Joomla article listing page so our designer can cater the Echo template correct styling for 2 columns and 3 columns on the page in next version.

hey Carl,

Can you download my attached file and replace into this following file location on your site and see how it goes?

JoomlaFolder/templates/echo/assets/css/style.css

Before you replace the file you have to backup the orignal style.css first.

I have renamed the original file and replaced with the one you provided. It does show the 3 columns correctly now however when you click on an article in those three columns to show full article, it over runs position 7. To demonstrate, go to ecoinnetwork.com and log in with demo and demo . Once there click on news, and then click on one of the stories and it will open full article and you will see the image take up full width and over the position 7.

Hey Carl,

The FTP access can't seem to work for me but could you try adding the block of css codes below into /templates/echo/css/custom.css

[gist]
body.echo .item-image img {
max-width: 100%;
}

body.echo .item-page {
padding: 20px;
}
[/gist]
