Hello,

Please look the attached image file.

The top images are the same Category Blog Menu (Events). Both of them have the same JFBCSocialShare Module configuration (orientation=horizontal and position=fixed).

As you see, the top-right image shows the JFBCSocialShare Module orientation vertical when I change the Social Component -> Content Plugin - Comments -> Blog View Setting -> Show in Category View = none. However, when I set the the Social Component -> Content Plugin - Comments -> Blog View Setting -> Show in Category View = bottom, the JFBCSocialShare Module orientation is showed correctly horizontal.

This issue is happening in other option menus, like the bottom-right image, in that case is a Category List as you can see.

Inside each article, the JFBCSocialShare Module orientation is showed correctly horizontal.

This joomla version is 3.2.2 with JFBConnect 6.0.1

Thanks!

Can you configure the site in the way that isn't working, and then post (or Private Message) a URL to a page where we can investigate further? It's difficult to look at the output without seeing the actual HTML to determine where the conflict is coming from.

Once we can see it, we'll help get you going.

Thanks,
Alex

Hmmm.. thanks for letting us know where to look. The issue is that our CSS file is not being properly loaded on the pages that aren't working. Because of that, the horizontal mode is simply not getting the right styles.

Can you try the following code change to our module, which will always include that CSS file on the page it's loaded, and should get you going?

In the /modules/mod_scsocialshare/tmpl/default.php file, at the very top, you'll see:
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
Directly under that, please add:
JFactory::getDocument()->addStyleSheet(JURI::base(true) . '/components/com_jfbconnect/assets/jfbconnect.css);
Hopefully, that will get you going. Let us know either way so that we can investigate further and make sure the proper fix is in the next release.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi,

Nop, unfortunately it didn't work,

By the way under the modules folder it just exist /scsocialwidget instead of /scsocialshare but I suppose it's the same right?

I'm attaching a default.php code image in case you want to see it,

Thanks,

Above, you mentioned:

Inside each article, the JFBCSocialShare Module orientation is showed correctly horizontal.

Are you not using the SocialShare module? I thought you were using a combination of the JFBC Content plugin (to automatically add the social buttons) and the JFBCSocialShare module to add other social buttons. If that's not the case, can you explain a little more about your configuration?

Are you just using the content plugin, or do you have a JFBConnect module configured to show the social sharing buttons as well?

Thanks,
Alex

Ok I see the mistake,

Yes I'm using the JFBCSocialShare module to show the social buttons, what happened was I didn't find the path that you mention before to include the code ( /modules/mod_scsocialshare/tmpl/default.php), so my mistake was include that line of code in the widget module.

But looking again the /modules folder I found the mod_jfbcscsocialshare folder, so I just included the line and the social buttons are showing horizontally right now.

Sorry for the confusion and for any trouble generated,

One last question out of the issue. Is there any way to change the background color of the content plugin - comments different to the light and dark options? I mean, inside the some css file to set a custom color?

Ok Alex thank you so much for your help,

Best,

Glad to hear we could figure out the problem, and sorry for the confusion. We've taken a note of this problem in our issue tracker so that the next release should have it fixed and you won't have to worry about it again.

As for the content plugin stylings, there's limited flexibility there. Facebook doesn't allow you to style the comment elements directly. They allowed that a long time ago, but it was abused in such a way that people were hiding all signs of Facebook and removing their branding.. so they removed those options.

You can add a background around the whole Comment area, which may help make it stand out more.. but the actual elements can't be altered.

I hope that helps explain, but if you have any other questions, just let me know.

Thanks,
Alex
