Description problem and others

**alanbartczak** · 11-09-2010, 08:38 AM

Hello

I have some strange problem with my Pligg, so when i put a pretty long description to a new story, the description is cut

It should be much longer, it looks like there is something like "<br>" not working. Anyone knows how to fix it?

Also i have 2 questions:

1) Where can I delete "What is pligg?" and "Advertisment" which is from the layout

2) Where and How can I add some Ads, texts in the right column ( i don't know to call it - the menu of the site ) etc. ? How to add anything to the page?

3) And is there any possibility to change the structure of the layout?

Thank You a lot for answers! I need them so much

Regards,
Alan

For the cut description, go to Admin > Configure > Submit and change the value of Maximum Summary Length

Your other questions will depend on what template you used.

I changed "Maximum Summary Length" and it didn't help. While adding new story it looks good, but when i add it, it brokes. It looks like the description window is too long in the width and i can't see the rest, or there is no something like <br> in html. Any ideas?

I'm using Pligg CMS 1.1.2 and bluestandard template

Thanks a lot for answers!

I need it so much.

Seems that your problem is CSS related, not what I assumed of.

I will try to reinstall pligg, maybe it will help.
Anyway can You tell me how to edit or add anything on the site? Some text or something? In what files should i edit it ?

Thanks a lot!

Can anyone tell me how to add anything on the page? Some Ads, text or something, where to edit it or some links to it

Thank You Guys!

EDIT:
I changed to the bluestandard template and it's wrong again.. hm.. any ideas?

Sounds like it was an overflow problem with the very long titles.

Th what is pligg box is in the templates/template_name/sidebar_modules/about_box.tpl Just remove which ever section you don't want displayed.

too add links / text is totally dependent on which pages you want to add too. header.tpl is all pages, sidebar.tpl and sidebar2.tpl are the sides, and so on. Each page has several pages you can edit with several .tpl files that are used on every page if you want them to be global changes.
