Hey Tim,

First off, welcome to Joomla 3.x and I am glad to see more sites are moving towards 3.x! Now back to your questions, please find my response to your inquiries below:

1) My Blog Title is not showing up in the new site even though the information is there in the General setup. The site description is showing... just not the Title.

Hm, not sure if I understand you here. I tried accessing the site and it does seem to show the title, http://take.ms/hQkkK . Do you have a different title?

2) Can I remove the social media share buttons in the Blog List. They are fine to show in each Blog post, but I don't want them in the list.

Yep, certainly and I have configured this for you. Just for your information this can be configured as shown here, http://take.ms/BRqoW . There is a settings that says "Show Social Buttons". Turning this off will hide it in the listing view only.

3) About author and recent posts section is not following the site template CSS. I have included an image of the old site and new site for comparison.

It looks like your template is conflicting with the output, http://take.ms/fjHbh . To fix this, you can add the css codes below into your template's css file,

body #eb .eb-entry-author-recents,
#eb .eb-entry-author-bio.media {
background: none;
}
[/gist]

4) Can I remove the Related Posts section in Blog Post view, if I decide I do not want it later or can it be moved to a module?

Yes, I have configured this for you. Just for your information, it can also be configured as shown here, http://take.ms/swBKN . You just need to turn off the option "Show Related Post".

1) That is not the title I was talking about.. I have included images of the old and new site. the old one shows the blog title I am talking about.

Thanks... I could not figure out where that might be set.

I have no idea which CSS file it goes in... Would you have any idea?

Hm, yeah you are right. For some reasons it isn't displaying. Can you provide us with the FTP access to check on this please?

Looks like you are using a template from Rockettheme and since they are using gantry, I believe you need to add a custom.css file in their css folder. Perhaps if you can provide me with the FTP access to check the issue above, I will also add this for you

OK... I have added FTP info in my first post. I created a new FTP account for tech support.... hopefully everything will work correctly... if not let me know.


Thanks

Hey Tim,

Thanks! It works! It looks like in the menu, a page heading was specified with an empty value and this is why EasyBlog tries to use the page heading from the menu. I have applied a fix, and it will use the heading defined in the settings if the page heading is empty.

As for the css file, I am not sure which version of Gantry is installed but it seems like the only way is for me to add the codes into /templates/rt_juxta/css/joomla.css and it is working correctly now

I can see the Blog Title now, but the font is small. The Blog Title font size should really be as large or larger than the Blog Post Titles as it is in the old site... can this be fixed?

In regards to the CSS issue, I went and checked & I still saw the same thing using Safari. I doubled checked it in Firefox & the backgrounds are now as they should be, but the font color in the "About the Author" section is purple and not the dark brown that is set in the Template configuration. Is this something you can fix, or should I contact Rockettheme on this issue. I should be using the most recent version of Gantry... I am not sure what that is as I could not find a version number in my backend.

I have added some modifications under the joomla.css file to increase the font size. Please feel free to change it to your desired font size.

body #eb .eb-brand-name {
font-size: 28px;

I have tested this on Safari, and the background is gone, http://take.ms/ZPuni . I think you need to purge your browser's cache.

As for the link and text colors, I have added the css codes below,

[gist]
body #eb .eb-entry-author-details {
color: #654106;
}

body #eb .eb-entry-author-meta a,
body #eb .eb-entry-author-meta a:hover,
body #eb .eb-entry-author-meta a:focus,
body #eb .eb-authors-name a,
body #eb .eb-authors-name a:hover,
body #eb .eb-authors-name a:focus {
color: #b82121;
}
[/gist]

Thanks for all your help Mark. Everything is looking good now. I have another issue that I discovered, but I will make that another Post.

You are most welcome Tim Sure, will mark this thread as resolved now.
