We copied our site for testing and upgraded to the new eb5 and found two problems:

1. The category modul doesn't show all categories like eb 3.9. If a subcategory has subcatgories too, they are not shown like in eb 3.9. See attached screenshots

2. How can we define the size of the cover image a) for listing and b) for entry view ? (Using wireframe). We want to use 100% of the blog width in both, the listing and entry view. As I explored we can use an image within the article and all is as we need, but in this case we don't have the "cover image", which is also used as image for the related articles.

Thank you.
Hello Nando,

Sorry for this delayed response.

For the (1) I'm getting Arlex to assist you on the module issue.

For (2), we are currently working on a settings to configure blog image for both Listing & Entry view, and based from your input, we believe it will resolved your issue perfectly. We are expecting to release this feature by next week the latest. Hope you can bear with us for this settings.

Thank you

Hello,

Thank you so far. I'll wait.

Discovered another problem:

Using easydiscuss 3.2.9676 as comment-system eb 5.0.16 entry view page loads without css. Only entry view, other eb pages are ok. Using built-in or komento is working fine.

Best regards

HI Nando,

I am sorry for the late reply.

I have inspected your site and it seems to be displaying correctly. Am I missing anything here? Here is my screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/R7fUCqR8CZzl and http://screencast.com/t/1pYvDkNBrHD . Have you tried clear your site and browser cache?

Please advise.

Hi Mohd Yasser,

sorry, but you couldn't inspect our site, because at this time it was still with eb 3.9. This version was working with easydiscuss. As I mentioned we tried it on a test site only.

Now we have updated to easyblog 5.0.20 on our live site and the problem is still there. We had to deactivate easydiscuss.

Now you can inspect the site.

Other new problems:

1. We enabled WYSIWYG editor for the biography, but it doesn't work. We tried JCE, codemirror, tyinyMC and none editor. All html was stripped. All the old bios edited before with eb 3.9 are still there with html. But we cannot edit new bios with WYSIWYG editor. We need it for links within the bio.

2. When clicking on easyblog | SEO we get the following error:
An error has occurred.
1060 Duplicate column name 'title' SQL=SELECT * FROM ( (SELECT m.*, p.title AS title FROM `xqxy5_easyblog_meta` AS m INNER JOIN `xqxy5_easyblog_post` AS p ON m.content_id = p.id AND p.`published`!='9' WHERE m.`type` = 'post') UNION (SELECT m.*, p.title AS title FROM `xqxy5_easyblog_meta` AS m LEFT JOIN `xqxy5_easyblog_team` AS p ON m.content_id = p.id WHERE m.`type` = 'team') UNION (SELECT m.*, p.name AS title FROM `xqxy5_easyblog_meta` AS m LEFT JOIN `xqxy5_users` AS p ON m.content_id = p.id WHERE m.`type` = 'blogger') UNION (SELECT m.*, '' AS title FROM `xqxy5_easyblog_meta` AS m WHERE m.`type` = 'view') UNION (SELECT m.*, p.title AS title FROM `xqxy5_easyblog_meta` AS m LEFT JOIN `xqxy5_easyblog_category` AS p ON m.content_id = p.id WHERE m.`type` = 'category')) AS x LIMIT 0, 20

Thank you and regards

Hi Nando,

Please find my answer from your inquiries below.

Now we have updated to easyblog 5.0.20 on our live site and the problem is still there. We had to deactivate easydiscuss.

I believe this issue has already been addressed with the latest version of easyblog. I've tried to enable easydiscuss comment system inside your easyblog and everything is loaded correctly on your blog site without any issue. Check my screenshot here, http://screencast.com/t/9DAgaEiD

1. We enabled WYSIWYG editor for the biography, but it doesn't work. We tried JCE, codemirror, tyinyMC and none editor. All html was stripped. All the old bios edited before with eb 3.9 are still there with html. But we cannot edit new bios with WYSIWYG editor. We need it for links within the bio.

I've applied the fix inside your /administrator/components/com_easyblog/controllers/bloggers.php and it should working correctly now.

2. When clicking on easyblog | SEO we get the following error:

It seems like there are some issue with #__easyblog_meta table. I will consult with our developers and will provide the fix as soon as possible.

Hello

I cannot confirm, that the easydiscuss issue is solved. See attached image.
Cache was emptied, Cloudflare was disabled. No result. Tested with diffrent browsers.
We had to disable easydiscuss again.

I've applied the fix for your SEO error inside your /administrator/components/com_easyblog/models/metas.php and it should working correctly now.


Now easyblog | SEO is visible in the backend. the error disappeared, but my keywords and discription are not shown. If you look the source of an article in frontend the metas are still there.
Attention, my statment belongs only to existing articles before upgrading to eb5. Metas of newly created articles are shown !!

Than you again for your support

hey Nando,

I am really sorry that delay of this reply as we are currently having a Joomla conference here in Malaysia and most of the team are involved in the preparation.

Regarding with your first issue Easydiscuss comment, I have applied some fix in your site, it should work fine now.

Regarding with your second issue, perhaps you can guide us which post are you mentioned that so we can directly check on this?

Looking forward of your response.
