For Joomla 3.0 I'm facing the following issue:
In one of my pages I am representing Group Members (Our Group). This worked fine for a while, but we have now come to the point where the group has expanded and there are people who are departing from the group.
I therefore wish to change "Our Group" to the following:
Our Group
-- Active (Our Group)
-- Alumni (Old Members)
The display is currently set to multiple columns as can be seen here:
Example current Group Output
Preferably I want a similar banner saying "Alumni" below this containing Alumni sub-articles:
(hopefully this drawing makes sense)
Preferred Situation Sketch
Now in order to organize my items I have created a Sub-Category called Alumni (as can be seen) and when clicking that I correctly get the articles from that subcategory:as can be seen here
How should I configure the blog elements so that I get the Group members first (rows of 4, im still working on equal-sized boxes) followed by the actual last screenshot as a separate header/category?
If needed I can provide an overview of my current settings, but it still is rather unclear how Joomla handles these for me.

So I am working on a project that awards points to students for submitting assignments or participating in forums, these points are then exposed as an Http resource using Flask.
The points are calculated by looking at the events triggered for each student.
One of the requirements right now is to add a box next to the student's name that shows the total amount of points they have. I have two ways of accessing the points, either by an http request from moodle or by storing and retrieving the points from moodle's database.
My question is what is the best approach of creating this "box", I have tried using moodle blocks and hacking the code but nothing seems to be working. Is creating a plugin for this the only solution or is there a simpler way to do it (if it is even possible)?
To answer your question properly you should have provided at least the theme and the Moodle version you work with. Should this box be displayed everywhere? Is the score calculated for every course individually?
Two proposals that came into my mind:
You could create a custom plugin of type block. There you can display the score of the user of the session and the top ten for example (If the score is calculated for each course individually). A disadvantage is that every teacher of a course could remove that block easily, if he or she wants to.
If the score counts system-wide you could put that box at the start page of your Moodle website, where only people with higher rights will be able to remove it.
If you use boost you could display the score in the navbar right next to the users name. For that you will have to create a new child theme of boost and overwrite navbar.mustache of theme_boost which get's it's information from columns2.php because it's included into columns2.mustache. In this PHP file you can include your logic and display it with the HTML which you put into navbar.mustache.
Of course these are not really simple ways to do that. But at the moment I doubt that an easy solution exists for this problem.
Recently we had the following problem:
The article includes several sections which are very important for my colleagues from three different departments.
According to my colleagues - the article is updated properly, except for one vital section which hasn't been updated for more that three months.
Default 'last modified' page block displays that the most recent update took place two weeks ago and our new colleagues had no idea about the section which hasn't been touched by the author for more than three months, which caused some issues.
Is there a way to create a macro which displays the most recent update for the selected section of the page? For example:
entire page - last modified on Jun 06, 2019;
selected section - last modified on Apr 03, 2019.
We need to use similar functionality like here and also here , but the macro body should be able to select a section of the page (a paragraph or a table for example).
Confluence/Server.
Thank you.
This is probably not possible (not the easy way you would like to have it implemented).
Except some heavy scripting (ScriptRunner for Confluence) or custom addon development, the only easy way is the following:
Try to move these 3 sections into 3 separate sub-pages and link them the main (parent) page - using Page Include macro.
On top of each section you may add information (custom macro) about last subpage updated date.
However, this solution has its pros & cons:
(+) out of the box solution
(+) you can further restrict pages who can and cannot edit the subpages (sections)
(-) you need to script custom user macro to display the last page update of different page than current (should be easy)
(-) teams will have to edit subpages instead of the main page (a simple process change)
Alternatively, you can check with StiltSoft and their InPlace Editor - this addon works with section and it would be interesting to let them ask if they are open to implement your requested functionality.
We are in the process of setting up our new website with Suite Commerce Advance - this means that we have been moving items around in categories, we seem to have an issue where items are disappearing within the categories (they are still present on the website if you search from them) has anyone else had this problem and how do you solve it?
i hope the problem was already solved, for other folks facing the same.
follow the following step:
Check whether the categories are properly tagged in commerce categories.
Check the display in webstore checkbox to be true.
Inside Webstore tab -> WebSite categories-> Site category = Home.
Then build index and cache invalidation request. Not always
mandatory(but if any thing changes in record level).
I am pretty new in Typo3 (I came from Joomla and WordPress) and reading the documentation I have some doubts related to the user manage the user in this CMS:
I am using Typo3 6.1.1 and reading here it seems to me that the user managment is quite different (maybe the documentation is related to an old version of the CMS?): http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/GettingStartedTutorial/EditAndCreatePagesAndContent/CreateUsersGroups/Index.html
In particular I am not understanding if in the 6.1.1 the backend user can ben divided in groups or if they simply are backend user because if I go into: ADMIN TOOLS ---> Backend User I can see the backend user but not the groups, why?
Tnx
Andrea
As you can see in mentioned doc, BE users can be divided by groups and easiest way for creating BE groups and next BE users is using WEB > List module.
Just using workflow showed at screen of this section you need to create records of both types (blue arrows) on the highest page (with id 0 - on screenshot it's called New TYPO3 site)
I'm not quite sure about the reason, but Backend User module doesn't allow to manage BE groups directly, however there's a tip (which is general for whole TYPO3) - you can create a BE group ad hoc - during the process of creating BE user by using additional icons in the form, take a look to screenshot below, the yellow pencil and black plus allows you to edit/create related records without canceling current edition.
I'm building a demo site about server management, I have a requirement as following:
- User can search servers when he input an IP certain range, the site will list all information of available servers respectively (Server name, IP , status, usage...).
I used a TableViewer to show the search result, and I also used pagination. I have 2 buttons Next ans Previous to move among pages.
The problem I'm facing is how to move automatically among pages with slide effect ( similar as we see photos of an album). When I click Next and Previous buttons, the effect must be the same.
I don't know if RAP can do it and how to do it?
I'd appreciate for any suggestion or answer. Thanks so much.
