Global Article Options not being applied??

Hello,

Signed up a year or so ago but this is the first time I am actually trying to use a Gavick Template. Was using another company's template prior.


My site is on wamp local so I only have screen shots of the issue. Essentially I want creation dates, titles,author info ONLY on blog pages. For pure html articles I want a blank main body.

To achieve this of course I have set global parameters in Articles, Menu Items, etc. Then for the few blog pages I have I manually set the create date, author info, title stuff to "show". This has worked for me since Joomla has been around.

I even went back into EACH article and hid the info to be extra tenacious. But in boutique they still improperly show up??

As you can see I have all settings set correctly:

To make sure it was indeed Boutique causing the issue I put my previous template back as default and refreshed:

Same exact settings, but with a different template all is perfect and behaving properly again. Any ideas or thoughts?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi,
please go to html/com_content/article/default and find:

Code: Select all

<div class="itemDate">
  <time datetime="<?php echo JHtml::_('date', $this->item->created, JText::_(DATE_W3C)); ?>">
   <span class="itemDateDay">
      <?php echo JHTML::_('date',$this->item->created, 'd'); ?>
   </span>
   <span class="itemDateMonth">
      <?php echo JHTML::_('date',$this->item->created, 'M'); ?>
   </span>
  </time>
</div>


then change it to:

Code: Select all

<?php if ($params->get('show_create_date')) : ?>
<div class="itemDate">
  <time datetime="<?php echo JHtml::_('date', $this->item->created, JText::_(DATE_W3C)); ?>">
   <span class="itemDateDay">
      <?php echo JHTML::_('date',$this->item->created, 'd'); ?>
   </span>
   <span class="itemDateMonth">
      <?php echo JHTML::_('date',$this->item->created, 'M'); ?>
   </span>
  </time>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>


Thanks for the reply,

Three questions:


1. Are my people going to have to do this everytime the template is updated?

2. What about the title? It is still showing.

3. Are there any other Joomla configurations / options the template is blocking?


Thank you,

Scott

1. I will inform our programmers about this bug and we fix it in next update.
2. Please check yor settings becasue in source code title has correct code. Andgive me url to page with this title.
3. I don't think so.
