Hi,

I have an issue with the easybog recent blogs module.

In my default_item.php I have the following code:

<div class="mod-item">

<?php if( $params->get( 'photo_show') ){ ?>
<?php if( !empty( $post->source ) ){ ?>
<?php require( JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath('mod_latestblogs', $post->source . '_item' ) ); ?>
<?php } else { ?>

<?php if( $post->getImage() ){ ?>
<div class="mod-post-image align-<?php echo $params->get( 'alignment' , 'default' );?>">
<a href="<?php echo $url; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $post->getImage()->getSource('module');?>" /></a>
</div>
<?php } else { ?>
<!-- Legacy for older style -->
<?php if( $post->media ){ ?>
<div class="mod-post-image align-<?php echo $params->get( 'alignment' , 'default' );?>">
<a href="<?php echo $url; ?>"><?php echo $post->media;?></a>
</div>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>

When I add a picture into the media manager the recent blogs module seems to display the thumbnail image, enlarged which distorts the picture, but when I add the picture into the html within the blog body, and remove the image out of media manager I get the full quality image.

My question is, how do you force the recent blogs module to pull the full image instead of the thumbnail when using media manager to upload and display the images?

Hello Dan Smith,

I have inspect in your image from latest blog post module, it seems like you have configure the module pixels to 80 x 90px, so the blog image will not show properly, because the size already make the image become fuzzy.

I have help you set to 300 x 250px, it work fine now.
Also I have help you configure the Easyblog SEO setting to default, because i noticed when i click the blog title from latest blog post module, it directly to homepage, it not go to the exactly blog entry page.

Hope this help.

Hello Dan Smith,

It seems like the code you're using the latest blog post module right?
If I'm not wrong, your image is not under the blog image section right? Because by default if you're using the blog image, it will not display thumbnail image, also can i have your Joomla backend and FTP access so we can help you check on this ? Please advise.

HI,

Yes I am using the latest code.

No, the image is under the blog image section. Thats what is confusing me. It is in fact not displaying the blog image by default like it should.

Sure thing.. Site details sent.
