Rich Blog Issue

Hi,

We have purchased pavilion theme and the rich blog is only displaying maximum of 5 blog posts on home page. I have changed the home page setting to display 15 posts but it does not seem to work. I have stopped started the application and even deleted the home page category but it continues to display the 5 images. I changed the images to display to 2 and that worked. Not sure what is going on please help.

To see this live google cricket equipment usa and look at the home page at the bottom where blog appears.

Hi,

What nopCommerce version do you use? Because I tested it on 3.80 and everything is working fine. Also, it will be very helpful if you could tell us your plugin version. You can do this by going to Administration -> System -> System Information, click Show button next to "Loaded assemblies" and search for this: SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.RichBlog, Version=3.*.***.***, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null

Looking forward to your reply!

Ok I have figured it out, the issue is with the StartDateUTC column in Blogpost table, on home page if the column is not populated the widget is showing only 5 latest blog posts we upgraded to NOP 3.8 and the column was not populated. Once I updated the date column from DB and cleared the cache it started to work. On home page however the category will have no effect and it will display the posts on the most recent order. So if you create a category with 15 posts and the dates on those posts are not in order then it will not show those posts.

Glad was able to figure it out, on a side note I do like all the good work you have done with theme. I would suggest that you have the anchor text colors in category description and Topic pages as they do not stand out if you have a link in those areas. I have edited the style.css in the theme on our site to address this issue.

Hi,

Yes, the latest blog posts are ordered by their StartDate ( if there is no StartDate for certain blog post, then the CreateDate is used instead ).

Thank you for the suggestion, I will forward it to our front-end team.

Hope this helps!
