Article on Forum page

[Bionic Rooster]

Hi guys, I just featured an article (AMS) and put it on the forum page. the box? is not the same as Random Media.
any fix would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Is it the addon of Brogan?
Than it has his own style properties i think.

 

[Bionic Rooster]

No it's Bob AMS Article Management System

 

[bt012ss]

And Bob has no style properties for this box?

 

[Bionic Rooster]

It shows fine in XenBase and default but not Blackend Pro

I'll need access to view it, the test user I had didn't have access to it(required to make an introduction post).

I don't have AMS installed at the moment

@Russ ok try again I had to reactivate that account

 

[Bionic Rooster]

@Russ any word on a fix for this? Do you need admin access?

 

[Russ]

Try doing this... and it may help if any other blocks get added.

Go to Style Properties: [XB] Forum List & Category -> Forum List Section Main, remove the background color(transparent), padding: 0px and border-style none. Basically remove any custom CSS set there. Then add this to your extra.css:

#forums.nodeList.sectionMain {
  background-color: transparent;
  padding: 0;
  border-style: none;
}

See if that helps.

There's nothing there

Added code to Extra.css and nothing changed

 

[Russ]

For one, you need to remove the padding: 0, and make the border-style: none just set it to blank.

Interesting about the background.... looking at blackend on my site I don't see the CSS on that screenshot either but it is loading. Can you do this, set it to any color, save the property, then open the background color and clear it, and save again.

Still has me scratching my head why the background color wasn't showing , glad it worked out though.

 

[Bionic Rooster]

I made the background color a bright pink LOL so I think I scared it into showing the 'right' background when I removed the 'pink'

@Russ I ran into the same problem with Detour and the Article block. I tried the same changes you suggested for Blackend Pro but they didn't work
Can you tell me how to get the title block looking the same as the others?

Thanks

Bob has an update coming on his add-ons I believe which address styling issues, in the meantime can you enable Test user on your site for me .

Done
Yeah I just got an email about an update coming this weekend.
Thanks,

So I changed his code up a bit, I'll write him as well to see if he may want to adjust it.

    <div class="amsModuleTitle {xen:if $moduleTitleNode, 'nodeInfo categoryNodeInfo categoryStrip'}">
         <h3 class="{xen:if $moduleTitleNode, 'nodeTitle', 'subHeading'}">
           {xen:if $moduleTitleNode, '<a href="{xen:link ams}">{xen:raw $moduleTitleNode}</a>', {xen:raw $moduleTitle}}
         </h3>
     </div>

Add the traditional categorytext:

    <div class="amsModuleTitle {xen:if $moduleTitleNode, 'nodeInfo categoryNodeInfo categoryStrip'}">
       <div class="categoryText">
         <h3 class="{xen:if $moduleTitleNode, 'nodeTitle', 'subHeading'}">
           {xen:if $moduleTitleNode, '<a href="{xen:link ams}">{xen:raw $moduleTitleNode}</a>', {xen:raw $moduleTitle}}
         </h3>
       </div>
     </div>

Seems to be working, technically Detour just uses that extra div to add styling.

Thanks @Russ you're the best

Thanks @Russ you're the best

I told Bob about it and he's adjusted it for his next release , when you update the plugin if that template (nflj_ams_articles_slider) shows outdated you should be able to just revert it.
