Module title ("Latest comments") not showing

[acrata]

Hi, this extension is brilliant and seems to work well (except for the notification to admin, but think that might be a problem on my side), however, the module title doesn't show...I've named my module "Latest Comments", but it's not showing...any pointers?

Cheers

May be you forgot set "Show title" to Yes? Or you've cache enabled on your site and info doesn't refreshed?

What Joomla's template do you use? Try to switch to some default template? May be this problem related to Joomla's template?

I am having this same issue. I have a section and category selected. As well as com_content as my source. The module is enabled. I'm using a very simple template I've created.  All other modules show up immediately (native modules and one or two others). I'm using latest build of Joomla.

Comments show up fine in the page. The module just doesn't show at all. Even when I use the native template that Joomla comes with, it doesn't show.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Could you explain me how to reproduce this bug? I've same module at demo.joomlatune.com and have no problems with displaying fresh comments in it.

I don't know anything special to say. I'm fairly talented with Joomla, even developing my own templates from scratch. All I'm doing is publishing the module to a module position. Other modules are in this position as well, but they all show except this one. Even if I publish it by itself, it doesn't show.

I would imagine that something is up if more than one person is having this occurrence.  Are there no ideas at all as to what may be causing this?

I uninstalled an re-installed and now it's showing. Don't know why, but thought I'd post back.

Thanks.

Spoke too soon it seems. If I choose a different section or category the module doesn't appear. It only shows up for a specific section/category.  Even if I have the module set to show no specific category, it will still show comments, but only for a specific one. This is very weird.

Sorry, I can make any suggestions until I reproduce this situation. Every day I read comments on demo site and I didn't see any problems with module.

Hi,

I use my own template...have switch to one of Joomla's default template and it the module title shows there...most weird...I've never had any problems with my own templates...I must be doing something wrong I wasn't aware of...

Thanks for you replies

I can confirm same problem on a custom template that I have made.  But it also happens with Beez and Purity.  In Milkyway I get the module to output only.  In other templates I get nothing, not even the module title is output.

I can confirm the module is rendered, because it was the only module in position 'left' and I put print $this->countModules('left') in the template to see that it was counted.

Joomla 1.5.15, PHP 5.2.11

I'm looking through the module to see if I can find anything to help.

Hm... Try to open file /modules/mod_jcomments/mod_jcomments.php and replace code:

Code: (php)

$comments = $mainframe->getCfg('absolute_path') . DS . 'components' . DS . 'com_jcomments' . DS . 'jcomments.php';

with

Code: (php)

$comments = JPATH_ROOT . DS . 'components' . DS . 'com_jcomments' . DS . 'jcomments.php';

Hi,

I've also encountered this issue. And I've tried changing the code to the php file, but nothing happened.

I'm using the default Joomla Template and I've also named it "Latest Comments". Placed it on the right side of the page, above the Polls Module.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

Edit: Great comment component btw! Thanks!
