Metamod losing module styling
Metamod losing module styling
Hello,
Using a paid version of metamod Pro version 2.2c. I have a metamodule that displays one of 2 mod_custom modules at random. Using YooTheme Explorer was no trouble. Have since switched to RocketTheme Reaction and the styling for the module periodically disappears, leaving an unstyled module. Sometimes a page refresh solves this, other times it does not. Under 'Style for included modules' I have selected multiple divs.
Can you lend a hand (url: http://ukstage.ca/)
Re: Metamod losing module styling
Hi drjjw,
are you referring to the "poll" on the front page, or to some other module? I can see the poll randomly changing, but after a number of page refreshes I still can't see it fail as you describe.
When you're using MetaMod Pro, the "style for included modules" actually has no effect (unless you create output from the PHP box directly), so that won't be having an effect on the situation.
Can you perhaps post the recipe you are using so I can see if there's any possibility that that's causing the issues?
Best regards,
Stephen
Re: Metamod losing module styling
Hi again,
I've been sitting here doing page refreshes on the front page of the site for some time, but still can't seem to get the styling to disappear. I've tried on Firefox and Safari, and at last 40 refreshes on each.
About how frequent is this problem for you, and what browser are you using?

What would be more useful would be a copy of the HTML source for the page, when it fails. A screenshot would be ok too of course.
Once it starts failing again, could you perhaps remove the MetaMod from that module, and just statically assign one of the 2 modules into that position? Then see if you can make it fail again. If you can make it fail with MetaMod out of the equation then it could be something else wrong in the template etc.
I'm not saying MetaMod's not at fault - I can't tell - it's just a process of trying to narrow down the possibilities.
Thanks,
Stephen

Re: Metamod losing module styling
It's extremely puzzling though. What causes it to be intermittent? It doesn't seem to relate to the random numbers you're generating. Still working on this.
