I've been having a problem when choosing the "Ordring by" date as "published_up."

For some reason, when I choose this, there is still another date (modified?) that overrides the published_up date.

Any ideas?

This is very important to my sites and display.

*smiles*

Thank you.

Did you select order by "Newer to Older(FLEXI Date)" ?
Then choose the "publish up" date as the Flexi Date

Thanks for all

you can even choose several dates if your event takes place on different days.
In the example below, the field n°1 to n°12 are date fields from different types and different categories and I want to display all the events of today :

Code:

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Paris');
$hier = strftime('%Y-%m-%d', strtotime('yesterday'));
$demain = strftime('%Y-%m-%d', strtotime('tomorrow'));	
	
// Today events
}elseif ($order == '2') {
$flexidateordering = "\n LEFT JOIN #__flexicontent_fields_item_relations AS fd ON a.id = fd.item_id";
$condition_avenir = "\n AND (fd.field_id= '$field_1_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_2_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_3_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_4_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_5_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_6_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_7_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_8_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_9_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_10_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_11_id' OR fd.field_id= '$field_12_id')";
$condition_avenir .= "\n AND STR_TO_DATE(fd.value,'%Y-%m-%d ') > '$hier' " ;
$condition_avenir .= "\n AND STR_TO_DATE(fd.value,'%Y-%m-%d') < '$demain' " ;
$ordering = " STR_TO_DATE(fd.value,'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') ASC";

An of ocurse modify the xml file to customize the order choice

Code:

<option value="2">TODAY EVENTS</option>

Yes. Modified date still overrides.

It seems to happen in FLEXIcontent as well. If I wanted modified date to play a part in order, I would think that would be a choice, not default.

VERY frustrating.

thanks !

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

hi,

I want to use this module for related news. I made it load in a template at the bottom of an article using extension modules anywhere. With Joomla's core sef on, images do now show. This is the structure of the URL:
http://localhost/.../articles/general/i ... 162010.jpg

Why join the Navy? when you can be a pirate.

Hello,
That's weird, indeed, you'd better modify the file default.php to make it work.
First make sure you have the latest release of AidaNews (1.2.1).
Then modify the ordering conditions in the default.php file. Replace :

Code:

}elseif ($order == '3') {
        $ordering = " a.publish_down ASC";
        $condition_avenir = "\n AND a.publish_down >= '$now' " ;

by :

Code:

}elseif ($order == '3') {
        $ordering = " a.publish_up ASC";
        ;

And customize the file xml, replace that :

Code:

<option value="3">UPCOMING</option>

by that

Code:

<option value="3">PUBLISH UP</option>

Hope that will help you

I got it fixed in AidaNews.

Now, I'm just concerned about FLEXIcontent itself, as my sites are built on the concept that new stuff is posted regularly.

And yet, I can't show it in order.

*smiles*

Thank you for that fix!

Using Aidanews to display first part of articles, on some computers the article text wraps around the articles.jpg however on some IE browsers its just showing the text straight down after the articles.jpg and not to the right of it.
like this:
Water and Sewer
Rates adopted by
Council, effective
October 1st, 2010.

Does this sound like a css issue?

Dear Sirs,

I've installed your great module, but no matter what I choose to display (Joomla standard content by item ID or MyBlog), the module displays all blog items from Joomla Blog Category I've selected.
I need to show only MyBlog items which are published to frontpage (Frontpage only option in Categories (Joomla! Default content system)), but I'm not able to do anything with this module cause it shows only and only ALL items from Blog category.

Any help?
