CGBlog setup [solved]

master3395 · **Posted:** Wed May 16, 2018 8:43 pm

I wonder if anyone knows why CGBlog can't show articles, on any themes.

I've tried with the default cms themes, but I've not got ANY of my published news on a content page.

I've tried both codes below, but 0 showing on the front page.
BUT if i enable "show all regardless of status", they show all.
Picture below:

The image below is showing how it's looking on the website:

{CGBlog}

{CGBlog number="3"}

Below is how CGBlog looks in the admin panel:

Below is how it looks in content page:

At the content page, switch WYSIWYG off.
What is in the content text area?

The last "news number" is just to see the difference between CGBlog and News module.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<__html>
<head>
</head>
</__body>
<p>Below is CGBlog</p>
<p>{CGBlog}</p>
<p>{CGBlog number="3"}</p>
<p>Below is News module.</p>
<p>{news number="3" summarytemplate="NewsMaster-news-summary"}</p>
<__body>
</__html>

I asked what is in the *text area* of the content page after disabling WYSIWYG

I think you should REALLY start troubleshooting by:

- starting with a basic/sample PAGE template
- check your (PAGE) templates. If I take a look at the output (view source) of the webpage I notice it's not valid html (to say the least).

Note that CMSMS splits a page template into several sections (top, head, body) for processing.

Not sure if this is 100% correct, as you said "text area"

Rolf · **Posted:** Fri May 18, 2018 7:10 am

Why do you have the <__html <head </__body stuff in the textarea??? This should be in the core Page template!
The page text area should only contain the CGBlog module tag, etc.

master3395 · **Posted:** Fri May 18, 2018 10:34 am

The html part comes from a module called tinymce

Rolf · **Posted:** Fri May 18, 2018 11:07 am

Well, it shouldn't be there!!
Let WYSIWYG off, remove the redundant code and try again.

master3395 · **Posted:** Fri May 18, 2018 2:55 pm

I removed the code, and turned it off.
Still no output on the front end.
Unless i turn on "show all regardless of status".

Although the module's help is not clear about this keep in mind that, usually, in Smarty anything enclosed in double quotes is treated as a string and evaluated as a Smarty template. This has two effects:
- it slows down processing: it may not be noticeable on a single instance but given a loop or a high number of occurrences it will be;
- "FALSE" is not the same as FALSE: the first will be a string the other a Boolean. Numbers enclosed in quotes (whether double or not) may not be evaluated as numbers so "3" may not be the same as 3;

This also depends on the way the module handles the values internally. A few rules of thumb:
- use single quotes for text values unless you want the evaluated by Smarty;
- use double quotes for values you want evaluated by Smarty;
- don't use quotes for integers;

So... try {CGBlog number=3} . If that doesn't work you surelly have bigger problems to solve.

Thanks Rolf and Jo Morg, i figured out my issue...
I had enabled something i should not have done...

The button i activated is below, and it removed all active, and only showed expired...

Code:

"Show Archived Articles:

If enabled, only articles that have expired and would not normally show are displayed. This option is ignored if showall is selected"
