On the following page:http://webworxapp.com/scca

You see how the Category Title (it's above the leading image)... I would like to put that below the leading image introtext... I looked in the /components/com_flexicontent/templates/blog folder, which is how I got the image to go above the title... but I dont see where I can move that category title under the leading article description/introtext and above the rest of the articles... Category Layout: Blog

yes, thanks - I realize that... but it doesn't answer my question... I notice you post a lot with basic and not too helpful info... no offense but you didn't address the question. I will wait for one of the 2 other guys.

I am asking which template does that... category_items.php doesnt do that... I edited that file to get the image above the title... But that file and none in the blog folder addresses moving the category label where I need it.

Hello,

:D
no offense but you get 10x more answers than you would from another component when asked for customizations

*****************************************************
in fact for some components you would not get answers
--for bugs-- for free,
yes you have to buy subscriptions in order to report bugs
*****************************************************

1. bug reporting and bug-fixing is free, no subscriptions required

2. For customizations you got quite a few of answers, and we have to make a living too, our time is value-able and must be appreciated, imagine 10 other people asking various TEMPLATE customization questions

3. You get a component for free that involved a great deal of work, countless hours of 2-3 people, i know that the component/plg/modules has many features you do not need, but it was developed for many different sites, (imagine cost to develop such components for a single site e.g. develop joomla for a single site)

4. normally we would get paid to set-up a site and perform customizations on it,
so when you use a component without being a developer then you must rely on what is available,

or pay someone to do it:
the templates of FLEXIcontent are customizable easily by developers, and can be greatly shaped by numerous parameters, but something need development work on templates, otherwise developers would be out of a job

our knowledge and studies and work AND TIME is valuable and must be appreciated

5. we have added too many customization parameters to the component for people like you (=end users) so much that some people complained of it

Best Regards

I wasn't talking to you about the offense thing... I was talking to the other guy... but I guess he is your friend and you feel the need to defend him. He often posts with general information... you guys are really fast but you get offended really easy. I have no problem paying for paid support... I understand that its for free - perhaps change the subscription model? I do know the costs of development... I worked for Microsoft, developed in C, C++, VB, Foxpro, Basic, GW Basic,... I hardcoded complete sites, Flash, Java, etc, etc. I assumed that you guys could easily point me in the right direction because or your expertise with your own component. It is much faster than me continually looking through all the code... also, I notice you guys put out a lot of revisions so who knows if I am working off old code. I haven't complained about anything other than that one guy - micker posting something that is general in nature. If that is offensive - maybe customer support isn't your thing. I have many times posted what quick support you give so not sure why you are angry and not sure what you mean by saying, "people like you." ALL I asked for is which file should I looked in... CLEARLY I have edited the code you have to suit my needs... it was a simple question and Micker didnt answer it... then you take offense? I am sure one of your goals is to expand your component and I am quite sure that you generate some form of revenue for yourselves from this site and your components... if not, you should try to. As a well known Joomla user (and writer), I could easily increase your userbase... and I do think your component shows a lot of promise... and the support is quick... but not too friendly... sometimes sarcastic and sometimes rude - perhaps it's a language/culture thing... perhaps I am being too sensitive. As a DEVELOPER and business owner myself - I understand how it can get annoying when people bang you for customizations... but to ask where a template file is for 1 thing I need to change is hardly being problematic.
