Mobile template always on was created by rubenreyes

Hello,

We are having some problems with category template in mobile.

We have created a category template that we use to generate a list of items in JSON format. The regular page can be found here: dev.perfectprinting.com/thought-leadership and we force a component-only Joomla template together with our JSON Flexicontent category template as follows: dev.perfectprinting.com/thought-leadersh...clayout=perfect-json

From a desktop browser you can see the JSON output, but when we do the same in a mobile phone we get the assigned template output.

Here is out setup:

Joomla 3.2
FLEXIcontent 2.1.3 r1857

In the FC main configuration we have the following setting:
Use Mobile Layouts: No, only in fields

Any idea what could be the problem?
Thank you!

Hello

A) yes it is a bug,

1. the mobile usage is always ON
2. when mobile is detected then the URL variable that is used is:
clayout_mobile

it was not reported so far, because when it is disabled in Component parameters then the mobile layout PARAMETER does not appear, thus it cannot be save, thus the bug does not manifest in frontend

but in case of custom layout via parameter, it does manifest

HOT FIX:

in file
components/com_flexicontent/views/category/view.html.php

Replace:

Code:

// (a) Decide to use mobile or normal category template layout
$use_mobile_layouts = $params->get('use_mobile_layouts', 0 );
$force_desktop_layout = $params->get('force_desktop_layout', 0 );
$mobileDetector = flexicontent_html::getMobileDetector();
$isMobile = $mobileDetector->isMobile();
$isTablet = $mobileDetector->isTablet();
$useMobile = $force_desktop_layout  ?  $isMobile && !$isTablet  :  $isMobile;
$_clayout = $useMobile ? 'clayout_mobile' : 'clayout';

with:

Code:

// (a) Decide to use mobile or normal category template layout
$useMobile = $params->get('use_mobile_layouts', 0 );
if ($useMobile) {
	$force_desktop_layout = $params->get('force_desktop_layout', 0 );
	$mobileDetector = flexicontent_html::getMobileDetector();
	$isMobile = $mobileDetector->isMobile();
	$isTablet = $mobileDetector->isTablet();
	$useMobile = $force_desktop_layout  ?  $isMobile && !$isTablet  :  $isMobile;
}
$_clayout = $useMobile ? 'clayout_mobile' : 'clayout';

similar for item view:
components/com_flexicontent/views/item/view.html.php

replace:

Code:

// (a) Decide to use mobile or normal item template layout
$use_mobile_layouts = $params->get('use_mobile_layouts', 0 );
$force_desktop_layout = $params->get('force_desktop_layout', 0 );
$mobileDetector = flexicontent_html::getMobileDetector();
$isMobile = $mobileDetector->isMobile();
$isTablet = $mobileDetector->isTablet();
$useMobile = $force_desktop_layout  ?  $isMobile && !$isTablet  :  $isMobile;
$_ilayout = $useMobile ? 'ilayout_mobile' : 'ilayout';

with:

Code:

// (a) Decide to use mobile or normal item template layout
$useMobile = $params->get('use_mobile_layouts', 0 );
if ($useMobile) {
	$force_desktop_layout = $params->get('force_desktop_layout', 0 );
	$mobileDetector = flexicontent_html::getMobileDetector();
	$isMobile = $mobileDetector->isMobile();
	$isTablet = $mobileDetector->isTablet();
	$useMobile = $force_desktop_layout  ?  $isMobile && !$isTablet  :  $isMobile;
}
$_ilayout = $useMobile ? 'ilayout_mobile' : 'ilayout';

Finally:
since this is a development site i suggest that you use v2.2.0 BETA (now stable enough for usage in DEV website) which also fixes CSS in J3.2 among many other important improvements and even greater speed for large web-sites (e.g. 20,000 web-sites many time faster than Joomla itself)

also i think that addressint field frontend view is broken, i did have time to look at it yet, though

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...

Hello

here it is:

www.flexicontent.org/forum/index ... =viewtopic

trying to finish things for v2.2.0

1. close a few remaining known issues
2. finish user-group authoring configuration (per user authoring configuration) that we have now is not practical it needs inherit from a user-group to be really practical
3. finish support for image/URL parameters of J3, we know they are very limited, but this offers compatibility with existing sites and some Joomla 3rd party modules
