Hello,

If you ad a standard Joomla article, in example a Terms & Conditions page, then the easysocial information box of the author is shown at the bottom of the article. How can I hide this box on certain pages like this?

thanks and regards
Wes
Hello Wes,

If you ad a standard Joomla article, in example a Terms & Conditions page, then the easysocial information box of the author is shown at the bottom of the article. How can I hide this box on certain pages like this?


May i know what is this 'easysocial information box of author'? Is that a module from EasySocial? If yes, you can assign which menu items this module should be appear. If you are not referring to a module, then can you capture a screenshot for me?

Please advise.
Sam

Hi Wes,

Ah, you are referring to EasySocial content plugin. Currently there is no option to configure which page the author information should appear. You will need to customise this EasySocial content plugin. Take a look at file 'JOOMLA/plugins/content/easysocial/easysocial.php' and look for this function getAttachData.

You can do a checking in which joomla article should show this author information box. e.g.


if ($view = 'article' && $article->id != 1) {
return;
}


Hope this help and have a nice day!
Sam

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is actually a public day off for us here. The translations for the plugin can be found in /administrator/languge/en-GB/en-GB.plg_content_easysocial.ini
