I am using the latest versions of Stackideas products on Joomshaper Awetive template with Joomla 3.2.1

JoomUltra has a tab/accordion/Slideshow module that works well with EasyBlog/EasyDiscuss/EasySocial modules, but I have one small style conflict with the ES Leaderboard module.

I am adding EB/ED/ES modules into the JoomUltra accordion module in position 'right' for all pages and using a custom position that does not show on the template for the EB/ED/ES modules to make sure they only appear in the accordion and not separately as well.

The layout style for ES Leaderboard works perfectly in the accordion on the EasySocial menu page because there is another ES Leaderboard module on the page in the es-unity-sidebar-bottom position.

However on all other pages it only works if I allocate position 'right' to the ES Leaderboard module, but this means it also appears as a separate module on each page (as well as in the accordion). The style is condensed if I change the ES Leaderboard position from 'right' to 'accordion' (or any other position that does not appear on the template).

I am making any adjustments in the custom.less file for the template, is there a simple css adjustment to fix the problem?

Video showing the problem :

Leaderboard issue video = http://www.screencast.com/t/TepVabK0RrAo

The video also shows (at the end) a problem with the EasyDiscuss Replies module, which has html tags visible in the module content, if you could let me know how to correct that as well? I know it should be raised in a new query but just noticed it at the end.
Hi,

1. Please create a separate forum post regarding EasyDiscuss in the respective category so that the respective support team can attend to you on that issue.

2. Regarding the module, it seems like this is an issue from JUTabs. The scripts and stylesheet added by the leaderboard module is stripped off by JUTabs (I've briefly inspected JUTabs code). They have codes that should add those scripts and stylesheet back into the page but it seems like it is not getting added. They also have this option where you can manually specify the URL of the stylesheet to load in Plugins Manager -> System - JU Tabs -> Advance -> Add Styles. I've manually added the leaderboard stylesheet url there and still it is not getting loaded by JUTabs. Unfortunately you will have to consult the team from JUTabs regarding this.

The reason why it works on EasySocial pages is because the module is loaded outside of JUTabs, and the stylesheet did not get stripped off if it is loaded outside of JUTabs.

Thank you Jason, I will contact JoomUltra and obtain the required code adjustment.

Hi Jason,

I contacted JoomUltra and the problem is fixed.

Just for reference, in case anyone has the same problem ((as JoomUltra is the only 3rd party outfit I have found who have Tabs/Accordions/Slideshows that work with EB/ED/ES modules on any template - perhaps highlight them somewhere (I am not affiliated to them in any way)?)), you were correct in trying to fix the problem by adding the leaderboard stylesheet url to Plugins Manager -> System - JU Tabs -> Advanced -> Add Styles.

The only correction required was to remove the domain name and leave the path as /modules/mod_easysocial_leaderboard/styles/style.css instead of the full http: url and it works perfectly.
