Bullets and Numbering bot appearing

Hi

I'm using the Music template with a Joomla 2.5.6 installation.

I have noticed that the bullets and numbering entered into my articles, although saved in the backend editor (both TinyMCE and JCE tried), are not appearing on the frontend.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Cheers

Are you using the template typography plugin or standard OL/UL elements?

Hi dziudek

I am using the typography plugin (also enabled in template settings).

Do you have this website online? Can I look at it?

Hi dziudek

The website is currently offline.

I will send you login details via pm.

Default ol elements have no list-style-type, that's why you should use the built-in gkRoman, gkDec and others classes from the typography. But if you need to have a bullets with the OL elements without classes, then please add in the template.css file following code:

Code: Select all

ol {
    list-style-type: decimal;
    list-style-position: outside;
    margin-left: 25px;
}

Many thanks for the reply.

Forgive my ignorance, but how do you apply the typography classes?

ginniss

In general there are two ways to apply the typography classes - you can use the typography plugin or put it manually.

I have the "Button GKTypography" active (typography also activated in the template), with preset GK-Music xml.full. This doesn't seem to help.

Is there another plugin or am I missing something?

Are you using TinyMCE or JCE editor? Our plugin is compatible with TinyMCE only.

I am using TinyMCE.

Do you have some JavaScript errors in your console?

Hi dziudek

No errors. Only some warnings:

Use of getAttributeNode() is deprecated. Use getAttribute() instead.
try {$Gavick;}catch(e){$Gavick = {};};

Use of getAttributeNodeNS() is deprecated. Use getAttributeNS() instead.

Could you send me administrator access to your website via PM? I have to see it.

I've checked your page in the my Chrome browser and the typography plugin works fine - it adds the typography elements, but of course it does this function only in the WYSIWYG mode - if you're using it on the HTML mode then it won't work.

Sorry dziudek

I'm not sure what you mean with regard to html versus wysiwyg mode.

I've checked the link in chrome, firefox, IE and Safari on both a Windows and iOS machine but see no bullets/numbering.

Are you referring to a Joomla backend setting?

ginniss

You haven't see the bullets because nor you haven't used the template typography elemenets not you haven't placed the mentioned code in the template.css as I recommend earlier:

Code: Select all

ol {
    list-style-type: decimal;
    list-style-position: outside;
    margin-left: 25px;
}


Dziudek

Thanks for you patience with this.

Unfortunately, still not luck.

I have applied the CSS code as you suggest. Typography is activated in the template. The Button Typography plugin is activated.

What am I missing? You mention using/applying typography classes. How to you do this?

ginniss

Applying css class means transform code:

Code: Select all

<ol>

to in example:

Code: Select all

<ol class="gkRoman">

Hi dziudek

I have got things to work at an individual items level - manually applying the style attributes to the HTML code. However, this is far from an ideal solution on a site which mainly includes user content.

Consequently, I have applied a template override for <OL> items that works OK for automatically applying list numbering. However, I still have a problem with <UL> items. Any overrides I apply also effect other core template elements, e.g. the main menu format. Any ideas how to solve this?

You can always limit your changes to the specific range of the elements i.e. applying the #gkMainbody before ul in the selector:

Code: Select all

#gkMainbody ul


Many Thanks dziudek

Everything working perfectly.
