Hey there,

I thought you guys might know what is causing this issue. Site is www.frihedsforum.dk/ny/index.php/nyhedsbrev, template is BASE3. I want to display a list of my campaigns from Mailchimp. It worked before on an earlier version of the site: www.frihedsforum.dk/index.php/nyhedsbrev. It is running Joomla 1.5 and JBElement template. Instead of showing inside the article area, my list of campaigns pops up at the top of the page.

I have allowed css and javascript in the JCE Editor and it is showing up, so that is not the problem.

The code is:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.display_archive {font-family: arial,verdana; font-size: 12px;}
.campaign {line-height: 125%; margin: 5px;}
//-->
</style>
script language="javascript" src="us3.campaign-archive2.com/generate-js/?u=c8101f4016d3ec00f922a815c&fid=4605&show=10" type="text/javascript"

Hope you can help. Thank you.

What custom code section are you adding it to?

Cheers

I tried both adding it all into the article and have ended up adding the styling part into the before </head> section. The javascript is in the article.

Is this the snippet mailchimp give you?

Hi Paul,

Yes, it is the snippet that mailchimp generates for you.

Nya

Just to be clear about the code, because it didn't allow me to put javascript in the editor here, I have attached a graphic of the code.

Could you re-attach the pic and perhaps attach a text file with the code in?

Cheers
Paul

Chrome is best to attach with

Okki dokki. Attached is txt file of mailchimp code.

Looking at this I'd be inclined to add this to a module - a custom html module and not add it via the template

And move any inline styling if not commented to the custom.css file

I've disabled the editor to add this



You could do this or add an extension that enables js snippets to be added to a module

Hi Paul,

Hope you are doing well. Had a nice weekend I hope.

I still can't get it to work. I have tried using JIncludes, which still moved the content to the top of the page. I stuck it in an article and in a module position. Last thing I did was to put the javascript straight into a html module in position [abovecontent]. I have turned on allow javascript and other coding in JCEditor. I can see you placed the content in a bottom module. It didn't work for me either. I need to place it in the main content area. It must have something to do with my web host?

I don't know what else to do.

Hi Nya,

Can you try setting the editor to none in the global config and then pasting the code into a module

Add your own unique position name and use loadposition in the article

I'd ignore the inline styling and that to the custom.css file

Does that work?

Cheers
Paul

Hi Paul,

I did what you suggested, but it didn't change anything.

I already put the inline styling in my custom css file.

Nya

Hi Nya,

Bit odd as that works for when I try it

Nothing left in the template snippet wise?

Do you get the same if you switch to a default template?

Cheers
Paul

Yes same result with Beez and Protostar. So this has nothing to do with the template. I also turned off the snippet plugin. Argh. It must be my web host, no?

I'll ask somebody brainier than me

Thanks. I so appreciate it. You have a beautiful brain.

Alas it could do with a tune up (my brain)

It looks like this is a specific javascript issue relating to the way that the mailchimp js is being implemented.

I'd suggest asking mailchimp or on their forum

Cheers
Paul

Hi Paul,

I asked the web host provider and he came up with the following script that solved the issue!! I hope others can use this

See attached graphic.

Hope you are having a great weekend.
