I am seeing duplicated posts in a category list but can't find the cause. Also, I would like to lose the "Active Authors" header.
I've checked in your site, it seems like that was not duplicate post, if you check from your backend Easyblog blog listing page, you can see there already existing different post id/created date/hits .

Thanks Arlex,

The duplicate posts are actually on the live site (as opposed to the test site you can see) and it appears to be where posts are in more than one category. Is there a way to view posts without duplicating them?

Also, I would like to hide the "Active Authors (2)" box/button above the posts.

Hey there,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

Let say I check for this post (The Perspectives Blog from Boston Financial) under this category (Boston Financial)

Then I found out got 3 similar these post title, but inside the content is different so that is not duplicate post, perhaps you can rename to another post title name.

http://abbr.uk/media-centre/news/entry/the-perspectives-blog-from-boston-financial-2
http://abbr.uk/media-centre/news/entry/the-perspectives-blog-from-boston-financial-1
http://abbr.uk/media-centre/news/entry/the-perspectives-blog-from-boston-financial

Also, I would like to hide the "Active Authors (2)" box/button above the posts.

By the way, I already help you disable it, can you give it a check now?

Hi Arlex,

Thank you for disabling the "Active Authors (2)" tab. Can you please let me know how it is done so that I can do it to the live site as well?

Thank you.

Hey RussianBlue,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Did you create a menu item for your categories yet? What you can do is to edit the theme file /components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/blogs/categories/default.php and remove the block of codes below:


<?php if ($this->params->get('category_authors', true)) { ?>
<li>
<a class="btn btn-default btn-block" href="#authors-<?php echo $category->id; ?>" data-bp-toggle="tab">
<?php echo JText::_('COM_EASYBLOG_CATEGORIES_ACTIVE_BLOGGERS');?>
<b><?php echo ($category->authors) ? count( $category->authors ) : '0' ;?></b>
</a>
</li>
<?php } ?>

Thank you Mark.

Removing the block of code seems to have done the trick. I have not created a menu item for my categories though (didn't understand that question).
