Author Topic: Author disappeared after upgrade Joomla to 3.3.1  (Read 609 times)

Hello,

I am using Design Control template (please check this URL: http://noticias.iruya.com/a/politica/lideres/1028-el-diputado-bernardo-biella-denuncia-corrupcion-e-irresponsabilidad-en-el-gobierno-de-urtubey.html)

Template information says I'm using Vertex is: 3.5.0. It seems to be the latest version of template framework.

Each content item shows author (after "written by" or "escrito por", in Spanish). But after upgrading to Joomla 3.3.1. author's not showing anymore. It's blank now.

I've tried by changing templates and notice that Protostar still shows the author, so the problem is in Design Control.

I have some overrides under /design_control/html/ directory, but none affecting single article view.

I will appreciate very much your help.

Kind regards,

Luis

Hello again,

I've noticed that file /components/com_content/views/article/tmpl/default.php in Joomla 3.3.1 is very different from 3.2.x version.

New version includes microdata in author displaying. I check source code of the pages rendered and noticed that author name is there.

Here is the code I see:

<dd class="createdby" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person"> Escrito por <span itemprop="name">El Equipo de Redacci?n</span></dd>


As you can see, author name is enclosed into a span tag with an 'itemprop' attribute value 'name'.

This is exactly what the template does not show.

I've tried several CSS tricks, but I can't get the author name in pages.

Temporarily, I switched back to the old /components/com_content/views/article/tmpl/default.php file, but sooner or later I'll have to restore the 3.3.1 version.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,

Can you provide a URL link to a page without the Author present using the recent file sets? Then I can take a closer look at the issue since I cannot replicate it locally.
