Hello,

That has to do with the way you've setup your content. In your table you've added another column for the content next to the "Rice is one of the most important commodities" paragraph. It should be another row in the table. Your content is currently set too wide for the available space on the page.

removed that article to check but its still doing the same with another article...

Also the images are not loading on some of the pages... especially when you link back from another page... do you get what I mean!

I cannot think of any changes I made, except play around with some SEO components...

help!

Hello,

You have a social plugin enabled that is calling an iframe set to 480px:


<div class="jv-social-share-button-contain"><iframe frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true" style="border: medium none; overflow: hidden; height: 28px; width: 480px;" src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.socialtours.com%2Fnewsroom-mainmenu-121%2F1-latest%2F501-cook-like-a-local&amp;layout=standard&amp;width=480&amp;show_faces=false&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;font=&amp;height=28"></iframe></div>


480px appears to be hard coded into the plugin. You will need to contact the developer of this plugin to have this corrected.

I changed the 480 to 200 still showing a problem... surely the problem is elsewhere!

Hello,

I am looking at your site and the problem is not present anymore. That plugin was the only thing on the page with an extended width.

You can try changing the src url of your images to a defined url instead of dynamic:

ie:

http://www.yoursite.com/image1.jpg

instead of:

image1.jpg

I discovered a malware file something like uimagic...which I had to delete, upgrade to the latest Joomla and then it was fine for a bit...

but the images are still a problem... somehow I have to change all to a defined url now! damn... I guess there is no automator for this eh?

I wonder how it came to that? Interesting... never had this before!

Cheers man.. thanks though!

Just one thing more...

Even when I click on the logo... which should go direct to home page right... thats something i have never touched, it stays on the same page... at least when I am using firefox, chrome, flock or safari... dunno why its doing this...

Even the home menu item is resulting a bit wonky...

Whats going on?

The images of course are going (that too intermittently) to the page url/images/stories/file.jpg which I guess I can kill by the defined url...

But I want to understand how that could happen overnight? Strange!

Hello,

Image urls are directly related by your server settings, the template does not effect this. There is no an automated way to change these urls.

I was able to click on the logo of your site with no issues and was brought back to the homepage each time. Have you tried on a second machine?
