Timeline not displaying

Hi Jackie,

I'm really puzzled. My only thought here is that it may be platform-specific then. Are you using MAMP or something else for the local installation?

I've placed the .mov screenshot video plus a few more screenshots of other info in the shared drive folder I gave you the link to. Have a look if you want.

Thank you for all the help,

Best, Al

P.S.,

one of those screenshots shows (through phpMyAdmin) the contents of the jux_timeline_module database entry. I notice that the content field is empty. Should it be?

Setting the position to main-top now returns me to the simple listing display, e.g.,

1545
- Council of Trent (to 1563)
1536
- last proposal of duel between princes

which can expand and collapse. So the .css issue is still there.

BTW, I've discovered another problem. I cannot update the jux_timeline_pro modules from the admin interface. I have to use SQL or the myPhpAdmin to do it. When I select "Save" or "Save and Close", the module does not get checked in. This is a separate issue and I will open a separate ticket for it in a bit.

Thanks, Al

Jackie,

My earlier suspicion about the "divided" installation under MAMP PRO was correct.

Looking at the page source again, the header links are:

<link href="http://localhost:8888/research/medieval/modules/mod_jux_timeline_pro/assets/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link href="http://localhost:8888/research/medieval/modules/mod_jux_timeline_pro/assets/lib/featherlight/featherlight.css" rel="stylesheet">

Unfortunately, the modules directory is installed by the Joomla installer into the MAMP PRO htdocs directory which on Mac OS is under /Applications/MAMP.

On the other hand, I see that in Sites/localhost/research/medieval, the installation does symbolically link the files and media directories to htdocs. Modules is _not_ automatically symlinked, however.

Adding the symlink fixes it. Yay

You can check the video out under the shared directory in my Google drive I gave you. (symlink-fixes-the-problem.mov)

Thanks again for your help. I don't know whether this is classifiable as a bug on the part of Joomla6 or MAMP PRO, but it doesn't seem to be your problem!

Best regards, Al
