: Cannot edit or add images in Modules : kspontelli February 02, 2015, 01:39:54 PM (note added @ 4:30pm CST) My first job today was to cobble in the images of our pastors into the new template. It is 7 hours later and I am no closer than I was when I started.(end note)
I am working on building a site, for our church, using the Risen Hope template. I was going to add our church's pastors' images and short-bios to the front page of the site. There were default images there, but as soon as I opened the module named "Meet Our Pastors", the default images vanished from the front page. They are not in the WYSIWYG or in the code view. I went to the demo of Risen Hope and using FireBug I can see that this is where those images should be. When I try to add an image in the module, It doesn't stick. I vanishes as I save the file. I can edit text and add text to the 'div' I would like the image in, but i cannot edit or add an image. I am the only user at this time. I am a superuser. The file shows that a super user has full control to edit this module. I can edit text and spans and anything else. Just not images. I have tried pasting code, using the 'Insert Image' gizmos.... Nothing works. After more than an hour of trying to add an image to the "<div class="bio_image_wrap" style="width: 50%;"> Div, I have given up and come here to look for answers. Tell me why this is happening and how to fix it. I'm working on a deadline and these no-rhyme-or-reason types of issues are very frustrating. The Sample image that vanished: (http://www.stjohnmansfield.co/images/pastor1.jpg) The Code View: (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/PasterImagesCode.jpg) The WYSIWYG View: (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/PasterImagesWYSIWYG.jpg) What FireBug and I are seeing in the Demo: (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/PasterImagesSiteDemo.jpg) The Site Before I Opened "Meet Our Pastors": (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/PasterImagesSiteBefore.jpg) How the site looks now: (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/PasterImagesSiteNow.jpg) This is the same type of issue. I cannot put a line break in the address. It has one in the demo, but it will not "take" in the template I have. (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/addressBreak.jpg) Here is what mine ends up like, a hot mess. (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/addressBreakMine.jpg) I can type the break into the code, but it's gone as soon as I hit save. Tell me why this is happening. There is also an issue with the Welcome to Our Church element. The Demo site had the Last Word in Bold. (http://stjohnmansfield.co/images/TroubleShooting/churchDemo.jpg) Mine ended up with the first word is Bold and there seems to be no way to change that.

It is an issue with the default TinyMCE editor included with Joomla. It often strips certain coding elements natively, especially any type of scripts. We have a small Tutorial here about it: http://www.shape5.com/documentation/Joomla/Editor-Stripping-Source-Code You can also alternatively use Global Configuration > Editor > None when modifying code heavy content or use another 3rd party editor called JCE which is very popular. |
