TOPIC: FrontPagePlus generates wrong html
#1419
FrontPagePlus generates wrong html 1 Year, 6 Months ago  
Hi, The FrontPagePlus extension is great (see my review on extensions.joomla.org) but...

The generated html is not the same as the html generated by the original Joomla! FrontPage extension.
E.g. FrontPage uses div while FPPlus uses <tables>. Also, the article meta information is displayed with a different format (original on line below title and in FPPlus on same line as the title). It seems to me that FrontPagePlus uses Joomla! 1.0 formatting...

Is this something that can be solved? Would be great since it is still a great extension.

Original FP
FrontPagePlus

FrontpagePlus extends on the functionalities of the standard frontpage view, but adds the support for sections and cats.

So it uses the output functions of the core frontpage.

As far as I can see, the (core) frontpage view of Joomla 1.5.9 does not use divs, but is table based.

So where do you get the info from that the core frontpage uses divs? Or are you comparing it with another 3rd party extension?

In vdneut's FrontpagePlus link above I see he is using the JA-Purity template.
That template includes a template override for the core Frontpage component.
Perhaps that is also affecting the FrontpagePlus output.


Does FrontpagePlus support template overrides?
It looks like it would (appears MVC is used), but I have not tested yet.

Thanks for this very useful component!

If I use the rhuk_milkyway template it looks fine. However... I like the JA-Purity template a lot.
I hope you can find a solution?
Thanx!

Remove the JA Purity template override and test.

At the moment, no.
What the JA-purity template is doing, as said above, is do an overwrite of whatever the frontage does by default.
Not so 'pure', it seems to me!

To make FrontpagePlus work, it would have to be a completely separate component, not relying on the Joomla core frontpage.
I am not planning to do that soon...
