K2 is the popular powerful content component for Joomla! with CCK-like features. It provides an out-of-the box integrated solution featuring rich content forms for items (think of Joomla! articles with additional fields for article images, videos, image galleries and attachments), nested-level categories, tags, comments, a system to extend the item base form with additional fields (similar to CCK for those acquainted with Drupal), a powerful plugin API to extend item, category and user forms, ACL, frontend editing, sub-templates and a lot more!

From K2 Dashboard - Paramaters (top Right) - look for then under Layout & view options for Search, Tag & Date listings

Hello, new to K2 but loving the idea so far. I too am looking to disable 'Published In' - however, being a total newb, cannot locate the "K2 parameters under generic search, tag and date settings you can set both of these to hide.".

 

If some kind soul can clearly point me in the right direction to achieve this?

Many thanks,

Hi Kannan,

 

sorry for the language problems :-) I dont want to arrange the tags and ratings together.

If you follow the link above, you`re on a html site with 12 ,,K2 articles" ----> Intro -- Tchibo -- famila ...

I want to display the rating there for each article (12 ratings on this html-site), not just only in the article view. I hope ive explained my problem in the right way.

 

Thx a lot for your effort.

 

Hi Fred,

 

Don't really understand the language :D . What i understand is this, you want to arrange the tags and rating together that it shows in one location ? Please refer to the attached image.

Hi Kannan,

ive tried but without success. All the category and item setting are without any results.

In the category ive tried it with the setting options of ,,Item view options in category listings" and ,,Item view options".

 

The same with the item settings. Just the K2 configuration and the k2-menu ,,tag" show results.Is it possible to modify the  php-file for the ,,tag item listing" - for ex. include rating etc.

 

Here is the link for a better understanding: Versandkostenfrei

 

Cheers

Hi,

 

Are you referring to adjust the display positions of the tags and ratings in an item (article) ?

Hi,

 

first of all great extension. Im using the menutyp ,,tag". Works fine, but i want to change the display options and dont know how to fix it. For ex. the title is displayed - how and where can i change these settings. I`ve used the article options without success.

 

Thx in advance

 

Fred

 

Edit: I`ve found the ,,tag-settings" in the K2-configuration. But is there still an option to edit the articles for the ,,K2-tagmenu" ? I want to include the rating pluginn.

Hi,

 

Yes, if you're referring "text field" as the article content area.

 

If you want the video to appear below or above "Politiken: 'Nausicaä' fra 1984 får endelig sin plads i de danske biografer. Miyazakis 27 år gamle tegnefilm er en økopolitisk fryd for øjet." then use the plugin tag Eg: {youtube}heu37ej3qs{/youtube}

 

You can see a demo here and read the documentation here.

Hi my problem is different. I like to embed videos in the text field so I can write about the videos however videos are not embed in the text field but shown further down the site as a "related video" to the post. Is it possible to embed ideo in the text field?

 

See example here: joannadinmitchew.dk/film-billeder-og-lyd-blog/item/12-miyaza...ä-my-heroine.html

You can use the com_k2_tools and display the tags as cloud in a module position. Go to Extensions --> Module Manager --> K2 Tools. Set the Select module functionality dropdown to Tag Cloud. Go down and set the parameters at the Tag Cloud setting or leave it as it is. Publish the module in a position.

Hi,

 

I believe you just want to show a video from YouTube on your article page but do not want to show any related videos after your video is finished playing ? You can achieve that without any plugins and with AllVideo by JoomlaWorks just use {youtube}DV81bAghxBU?rel=0{/youtube}

Or

Just use the embed code given by YouTube directly. Eg: Go to selected video on YouTube, click on share, select embed and YouTube will give you a code using <iframe> tag. Just uncheck the "Show suggested videos when the video finishes" and select the dimension of the video and your done. Copy the embed code.

 

Go to your article, if u use JCE select the HTML editor and paste the code on where you want the video to appear.

 

Eg:

<iframe width="560" height="349" src="www.youtube.com/embed/[video code]?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

 

If you dont have the AllVideo plugin by JoomlaWorks, just select the video tab and paste the code there.

 

The best part is, if you have the JoomlaWorks AllVideo plugin and would like to use the {youtube}[video code]{/youtube} then all you need to do is add the ?rel=0 tag to it.

 

Eg: {youtube}DV81bAghxBU?rel=0{/youtube} So, it wont load the other recommended video and will just show the replay button once it finishes playing the video

 

Hope i did not sound like a snake oil salesman.. :D

 

To change the view of the category, just click on the category name, in the category page - on the right you can see the K2 Parameters like Category item layout, Category view options, just click on the Item view options in category listings and change the hide and show parameters there.

You can add <div></div> tags in your article and create css styling for them. Float the divs left or right and place article or image in them.

 

I would recommend you to make use of the MVC and do the template. Read this article 

I'm not sure if there is an extension for it, maybe you can achieve it by using MVC and make some changes in the php code.

Another way is, you can try by turning off (meaning hide) image, intro text, tags, category and the items that you don't want to show in the specific Category Parameter --> Item view option in category listing. Just click show on the "Title" and "Link on title".

Hello people. Is there any way to make disqus comments for K2 appear exactly after the text ? Now they appear after the tags and objects related with the tags.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers from Greece.

is it possible to have "category list layout" of joomla in K2. or something similar to that. i am using K2 but i want all my notes/articles/items to appear as a list.

 

this is possible in joomla default. in menu -> (select menu item type) Articles -> (category) category list layout.


but i don't see this option in K2. K2 options are - (item listings) categories, tag, user page (blog)

 

i searched google but to no avail. i also tried to find some extensions in joomla-extensions (K2), but found none.

 

is there a way out? have i missed some extension?

I've imported a lot of items into k2 but when selecting one of the tags created, i dont get any results (or any errors). Any one know where to start to get the tags working?

i am asking here (again) because i got no reply here - community.getk2.org/forum/topics/latest-from-administrator

 

 

i am using k2 2.4.1.  i am making my first joomla website on localhost. and i have the same problem with k2. i want to remove "Latest from Administrator". i searched google and reached link above. but frankly i couldnt find the way out as explained by some in that link.     some members guided to search for "Latest items from author" but i could not find it. but i could find "items - parameters" on right corner. and similar parameters for catagories etc.     but even in parameters i could not find what u have mentioned. so please guide me where have i gone wrong?

Does anyone else wish that this K2 forum's h3 title tags were not so large and therefore more of the Discusion Title could appear in the Category lists?

ok, all folks above, i am using k2 2.4.1.  i am making my first joomla website on localhost. and i have the same problem with k2. i searched google and reached here. but frankly i couldnt find the way out as aforesaid explained by some.

 

@Dylan Humphreys - i could not find "Latest items from author". but i could find "items - parameters" on right corner. and similar parameters for catagories etc.

 

but even in parameters i could not find what u have mentioned. so please guide me where have i gone wrong?
