Same problem here -- I have the magazine set to *not* be the default homepage and I'm displaying a piece of static content on my homepage that's not registered in the magazine component at all -- yet the "about the author" block shows up at the bottom (empty -- would be nice if it checked that there was something to say about the author before it spawns the element).
I even went in and specifically disabled that particular author from the author's list in the magazine component -- but the "about" block still shows up.
Combine this with the fact that many of us appear to want to be able to move the "author" block up to the right (in a module, if possible), and there's definitely something to work on... |

We're looking into this problem. It would help if you can post a ticket so that our programmers can see it live.

Hi,
The problem was solved.
It was in mos_magazine.php page from our mambot mos_magazine
As soon posible a new mambot version of magazine component will be released.
Thanks,

actually i am still getting the problem.
using joomla 1.0.14rc1
and the latest magazine download
if article have nothing in fulltext, the author box shows up. so i went into mos_magazine.php and found these lines:
| Code: | //resolves issue of not showing "about the author" stuff for articles without fulltext
//if (!$row->introtext || !$row->fulltext) return;
if (!$row->introtext && !$row->fulltext) return;
|
if i uncomment the first if statement then the articles with nothing in fulltext no longer have the author box, but no article with fulltext do have the author box!
very infuriating.
i will log a ticket about this as well but a solution would be good. i don't want the author boxes at all - regardless of whether the user puts something in the main text box or not.
thanks,
dc |
