Bug in lastest Item about k2

[kavadas]

Hi. You need to be more specific. What's the file you are referring to?

[AndreaContarato]

File /components/com_k2/templates/default/latest.php (line 27 in my version) and /components/com_k2/templates/default/latest_item.php (line 16).
Maybe my suggestion is wrong but the test is very simple:

Use “Latest News” module
Set a number of columns (i.e. 3)
See the result ....

The error is at line 27: the container of all items is resized (100/).
If I cut the code and paste in latest_item.php (container of single item:

) it works ....

I’m using K2 vers. 2.6.

With Kind Regards
Andrea

Have you modified the file? The file should like this:

https://github.com/joomlaworks/k2/blob/master/components/com_k2/templates/default/latest_item.php

Yes! But I have already restored the original version.
I inserted my code as comment (in green) ...
The other style instructions ( padding, float, etc ) is for modify only 1 file ....

File: latest_item.php

File: latest.php

params->get('show_page_title')): ?>

escape($this->params->get('page_title')); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php foreach($this->blocks as $key=>$block): ?>

<div class="latestItemsContainer" style="width: <?php echo number_format(100/$this->params->get('latestItemsCols'), 1); ?>%;"> 
     <!--div class="latestItemsContainer"  -->

Before I have not noticed you are the author ....
I’ m sorry ...
I Know this isn’t the right place but ... Can you add a Parameter for truncate (in words) the item text, like categories do?
(Or retrieve the same parameter that exists in categories ....)

File: latest.php (Line 72/73)

item->params->get('latestItemIntroText')): ?>

  <!-- Item introtext -->
  <div class="latestItemIntroText">
      <?php echo $this->item->introtext; ?> ‘--- trcuncate by parameter?
  </div>
  <?php endif; ?>

With kind Regards

I still cannot get what you mean. The line 16 of the file you are mentioning reads:

<div class="latestItemView">

What's the issue exactly?

[AndreaContarato]

I mean that when I set a number of column > 1, the articles were displayed in 1 row only - i.e. setting 3 columns give me the result of 1 column with width = 33%.

In my opinion the error is due to the fact that the class:

in the file latest.php, is incorrectly sized. Should be 100% (better: none style).

The test on the number of columns should be done, in my opinion, in the file latest_item.php on line 16 (now in fact there isnn’t anything) ....
Something like:

But I leave it to you the judgment of the “goodness “of the solution

The columns setting is being applied to the source of the items ( categories or users ) not the items. If you want to create an extra grid inside it's column you need to do it by your own, there is no setting for this. I am closing this since it is a matter of implementation and not an issue.
