    Why filter is not working in RokSprocket?

    Posted 9 years 9 months ago
    • I have a site with Grafitto theme and I used RokSprocket on the front page.

      I need to add another article to the front page as part of the existing 6 sliders in the RokSprocket (showcase-a)

      In the sprocket module the existing setting is like this:

      Choose your Content Provider and Layout Type
      Content Provider: Joomla!
      Type Features
      Joomla Content Filter Rules

      there are 6 existing articles in it

      So I click on the + icon of the last article, a dropdownlist appears beneath it and no more logic term with second criterial dropdownlist, meaning there is no way to select and add another article.

      Here is the current screenshot:

      Here is two years ago:

      What happened to the RokSprocket or the theme?

      Can anyone please help me to sort it out? Any clue is deeply appreciated.

      Thank you very much.

    • Why are you individually selecting articles... do they not all belong to the same Category?
    • SEARCH the forum first! These boards are rich in knowledge and vast in topics. This includes searching just the 'Solved' forums, using Google, and using ChatGPT :woohoo:

    • Thank you for your reply.

      I have made some changes to the previous design, and copied all needed articles into a special category.

      I want to set to show all articles in that category, the problem is as you can see:

      , it shows you a dropdownlist but that is it, no something like "is " and then second textbox or dropdownlist

      This is driving me crazy.

    • Remove all your Title = Rules and just make ONE Category = Rule...

    • Thanks.

      When I am adding this extra article, I do not have any rule, I tried to select different rule like Title or Category, but nothing show up after I select any choices from the rule dropdownlist.

      That's why I am so frustrated now.

    • So I do think there is a limit to how many filters you can have...

      so what I'm saying... is DELETE all your current filters... all your current manually selected, by Title, articles...and ADD just ONE single rule that points to your Category.

      You should also be able to add some Fallback Rules with that button right there... that picks up on the Category... but that's besides the point...

    • I already tried to start from scratch, and deleted all existing articles and tried to point to a specific category, here is the screenshot:

      as you can see, there is some issue here: the rule will not show up!

    • Is RokSprocket up to date? I'd recommend re-installing the current version either way...

      www.rockettheme.com/joomla/extensions/roksprocket

      Current Version: 2.1.6
