How to make the component affiliate tracker responsive? - templates

I have a Joomla 3.8 website. I have installed Joomla Affiliate Tracker
and the template is PURITY III 1.2.3.
All my pages of all my components are responsive and fine.
I have an issue with a Joomla component (or the template); pages of this component are not responsive.
In this screenshot you can see that is not responsive, and you can see the code creating this issue.
So I read the doc http://www.t3-framework.org/documentation/bs3-layout-system
http://www.t3-framework.org/documentation/customization
I searched for similar issues on the web, but I couldn’t find where to change these t3-content col-xs-12.
So I download all website pages by ftp and made a search for this specific string “t3-content col-xs-12”
I couldn’t find it. I found where you define the width of col-s, col-xs, col-m, etc… but I am afraid to destroy all the template because of this unique component. I suspect more an issue with the component.
I made some tests:
I assigned an article to this same menu and the page was responsive.
I tested component on default template protostar and the component was responsive.
My conclusion is there is an incompatibility with PURITY III T3 System. But I maybe wrong. I am not programmer and it is very hard for me to fix that.
I contacted of Joomla Affiliate Tracker support and waiting for answer. As it is not mainly the fault of component, I am not sure to get help.

XPages are rebuilt automatically when opening designer

I have a customer who likes to do some basic stuff in Domino Designer in a specific database. He only works with Forms, agents etc and never do any Xpages stuff. I have done all the xpages stuff in the Database.
This morning when I opened designer I can see that almost all of the xpages design object has been signed by him. but he has not opened any of the xpages design objects. (only forms) and have not signed the application.
When I look at the webpage I can see that the designn changes I did from a few days back have disapeared, so I seem to be looking at an older version of my webpage.
If I go in to the application and Build the application with my id everything is back to normal.
This scenario seem to repeat only a few times a week even though my customer do changes to the application every day.
Image show the xpages time stamp this morning which seem to be about the same time my customer opened the application in designer.
Currently we are both using 9.0.1 FP10 but I have also seen this problem before FP10
ps.
Not sure if it is related but my customer also have another version of Domino Designer (8.5.3 Swedish) which he use when signing agents as signing them with v9 cause them to not work.
What can be the cause of this behaviour and how can I avoid it.
thanks
Thomas
Open Designer. From the top menu, select Project > Build Automatically and ensure it is disabled (not checked).
For additional reading, refer to Nathan T. Freeman's wonderful article "Taming Domino Designer" https://nathantfreeman.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/tamingdesigner.pdf
I am pretty sure that it's the 8.5.3 Designer that does the rebuild when opening the database in Designer. So this happens when the user just wants to sign some agents.
This problematic behaviour has been fixed in 9.0.1 (or perhaps in a fix pack release of 9.0.1). See this IBM technote about the problem: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1LO80591

Cant change the order of Sitecore presentation items - Sitecore.NET 6.6.0 (rev. 130404)

I am looking at a content item with many renderings.
I need to move one of the rendering down so it show lower on the page.
I can move it in the Edit presentation settings but as soon as I click ok, the order remains unchanged.
Note, it does work sometimes but is intermittent.
I have looked in the logs and nothing seems bad apart from this:
1032 11:20:45 WARN Long running operation: renderContentEditor pipeline[id={E23237A3-1FEB-4E9A-AEB6-543807ED6CAD}]
I feel this might be a Sitecore bug.
Has anyone experienced this before?
There was a similar issue in 6.5, but I assumed it would have been addressed in an update. Basically, the issue is a result of presentation setting deltas at the item level incorrectly merging with the standard values presentation settings of the item base template.
I would suggest contacting Sitecore support for a workaround or solution. Reference case #387488 and provide detailed steps to reproduce the issue.

Django A/B Split Testing Packages (None I've found are well-documented and up-to-date.)

There are two main schools of thought for doing A/B (Split) Testing:
Javascript-based solutions such as Optimizely, Google Analytics Content Experiments.
Server-side solutions such as Django-AB, Splango, and django-lean. (Also, writing your own.)
My understanding is that Javascript-based solutions are spectacular for "which color button converts better," but not so great for switching out entire page layouts, and completely unworkable for trying out large functional changes such as the sequence of pages in a funnel.
That leads me towards a server-side solution. I'm not crazy about coding my own, and will do so only if there is no other option. I'm trying to add value by improving the core functionality of my site, not by creating a better split-testing framework.
The Django apps I've found for split testing are various mixtures of unmaintained, undocumented, documented incorrectly, and incompatible with Django 1.5. This surprises me, because the Django and Python communities seem to have a strong focus on good documentation. I'm also very surprised that none of the testing frameworks I've tried has been compatible with Django 1.5 -- is testing not as core a part of the philosophy in the Django/Python world as it is in Rails?
Here's what I've found:
Splango https://github.com/shimon/Splango -- Not compatible with Django 1.5 (although most compatibility bugs I found were trivial to fix). Largely un-touched since October 2010, except for a fix August 2012 which claims to make sure templates get included in the install. Since templates don't get included in the install when Splango is installed via PyPI, either the fix didn't work or didn't get submitted to PyPI. Documentation is largely accurate, but doesn't completely cover how to set up tests and get reports. It tells you how to configure the template to gather the data, but there appears to be additional steps required in the admin interface which are completely undocumented, and I'm not sure I've done them properly.
Django-lean. Original at https://bitbucket.org/akoha/django-lean has not been updated since July 2010. There is an apparently "blessed" fork at https://github.com/anandhenry2002/django-lean which has not been changed since May 2012, when it was copied over from the original. The original's documentation is incorrect in ways that make following the examples impossible. (Though you can probably muddle your way through, as I did.) The new version's documentation has formatting problems that make it difficult to read on github. (This appears to be because it's the unchanged documentation from the old project, and BitBucket syntax doesn't work on Github.) The django-lean Google Group has not had a message since July 2012.
django-mini-lean https://github.com/DanAncona/django-mini-lean -- Updated as recently as February 2013, but undocumented.
Leaner - https://bitbucket.org/brianjinwright/leaner -- Last updated July 2012, and no docs.
Django-AB -- Last updated May 2009. Is not a package, and can't be installed via PIP or PyPI. After placing the checkout in my django app folder (and renaming the folder to ab) and following the installation instructions, I get an error loading the template loader that I have not tracked down further.
So far Splango appears to be the winner, as I've actually been able to get it more-or-less working (by manually installing the templates, and then editing them to fix Django 1.5 incompatibilities).
Can anyone point me to anything I've missed?
You have missed this app : https://github.com/mixcloud/django-experiments + https://github.com/disqus/gargoyle/
And then there's waffle: http://waffle.readthedocs.org/
It's simple, updated, maintained, but not very feature rich, it doesn't have any analytics/reporting stuff integrated. But then again, google analytics or mixpanel type of service is better for this.
I first looked at Django-AB and that is almost what I wanted, but I couldn't get it to work either. After looking at django-experiments and deciding I didn't want to mess around with redis yet, I decided to roll my own. I've tried to package it up nicely and make it easy to use for the beginner. It's super basic.

You can swap out entirely different page layouts with Google Analytics Experiments (their default experiment setup will redirect users to a different URL for each variation you have), although in general its much easier to interpret why something is more successful if you test smaller things against each other.
You are right that testing different funnels and user flows against each other using Google Analytics would require a lot of manual setup; although theoretically you could do it by swapping out different links and tracking your users with UTM campaigns.
For smaller A/B tests within the same page, I ended up using Google Analytics Experiments and writing a custom Django CMS plugin for adding a few variant options to a template, which queries the Google Analytics API and displays the correct variant using Javascript.

Joomla - mod_articles_latest not showing latest

I've tried searching around on the site and google with no luck so here goes;
In joomla, using the module mod_articles_latest, what could be the reason for it not showing the latest news? I get 4 news as i requested and i told it to choose by dated published yet it seems that it doesn't update when i add a new article to the category i told it to use.
I'm thinking cache might be the reason but i i have it turned off for the module.
Using joomla 2.5.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
First Make sure you haven't modify any files of mod_articles_latest. If you have modified then revert it n check. Second Check the list of articles & their published date. Even if it doesn't work then there are lots of free module which shows the list of latest articles on Joomla extension site. If you have half an hour & you know how to built Joomla module, you can proceed. At the end mod_articles_latest modules works perfectly for me. Thanks

Getting d3.js to work with raphael.js

I have recently implemented some data visualisation using d3.js, I'm now trying to get this to work for Internet Explorer browser versions 7 and above. The common suggestion to get this to work, is to combine d3.js with raphael.js, which is a cross browser graphics library.
There already seem to be some implementations of such libraries such as
r2d3.js :
d34raphael.js :
I'm trying to understand if these existing implementation already have d3's capability of data binding and the physics implementation of the force layout to implement something as simple as this d3 example : http://bl.ocks.org/1095795
I have been looking into this too and a number of options came up.
Chrome Frame - A browser plug-in that actually uses chrome underneath, meaning SVG just works. This is great if you're able to deploy plugins to the browser, for a real commercial environment however this may not be possible.
SVG Web - The aim is it bring SVG to all browsers. It looks like a fairly large project, one that's had Google's input. This doesn't however work out of the box with D3 though I don't know much about the issues.
D34Raphael - You've mentioned this one, I found again it doesn't work out of the box. Check the project out on GitHub, there hasn't been any commit activity in months and there's some pull requests "first pass on trying to get support for .on() required for event binding". If it doesn't support events, is that an issue to you? I'd generally keep away from this one.
R2D3 - Again another one you mentioned. I took the Sankey example from the D3 website and had to make a few changes to get it working. The main things I couldn't get working (Drag Events, Groups - though can use an alternative). It took about a day of effort to get the example working in IE8 and I believe is in a useable state. The project on GitHub is also much more active, the developer is committing, pulling work in and is very active on discussions etc. This gets my vote.
