Parameter settings are not respected

This time I'm lazy and I have no solution, only point to bug.

After the last update I've found that my regular articles with Blog template have to titles.

I checked the template file components/com_flexicontent/templates/blog/item.php and checked the if statement in line 74 .
I found out, that is always false disregarding item settings:

I suspect it's because of J2.5 JForm, 'attribs' JSON format and so on. The form data with settings are stored to json but not extracted to the JRegistry object before calling $this->params->get().

This might be related to my post: www.flexicontent.org/forum/index ... =viewtopic

mmm, you speak about JSON format, but i don't think there is a problem there because JParameter in J2.5 can parse JSON format

The order of merging parameters is

1. Component parameters,
2. Menu item parameter, (if Itemid or menuitem alias) exists in the URL)
3. Current category parameters (if cid exists the URL)
4. Item's Content Type parameters
5. Finally parameters of the item itself

So, unless you override in 5 (item itself) it should work as set in the Content Type ... (you did not make any changes to the item recently to change this parameter inside the item , right?)

I will check this further ...

-- Loading of parameters in the above order is done by function _loadItemParams()
in components/com_flexicontent/item/models/item.php

So if you put some echo statements there it will be easy to see what is happening ... in your particular installation and particular item

Sorry, the articles had disabled titles. So it was a bug it was working before (-:

So you mean current behavior is correct?

but old behavior was buggy?

(... and it was displaying titles, despite 'show_title' being disabled inside the item)

Current is correct.

Before I think it was ok, because the client didn't complain. He complained after the last update. But, there is a possibility he have not noticed it before.

So I think the topic is not actual till something happens.

Thanks
