Hi Kannan,

Sorry to bother you but i have changed following all your steps but can't reach final result...Main image is now to the left so theoretically I should just put intro text after it and it should wrap to right and below main image, right? This is what I think is the intro text in item.php :
/div>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php if(!empty($this->item->fulltext)): ?>
<?php if($this->item->params->get('itemIntroText')): ?>
<!-- Item introtext -->
<div class="itemIntroText">

I have managed to move it around so it seems like this is the part but wondered if maybe it has to be linked to full text section as I would like it in this order: Main image, intro text wrapped to main image, image galery and then full text. Can it be done?

Thanks in advance. Here is more details of item.php file:

<div class="itemBody">

<!-- Plugins: BeforeDisplayContent -->
<?php echo $this->item->event->BeforeDisplayContent; ?>

<!-- K2 Plugins: K2BeforeDisplayContent -->

Hi Davson,

Is it possible to see the page online ? can you share the url please.

Hi
an example here:
skipropertyshop.com/index.php/component/k2/buy-ski-property/470
I would like the into text just below the image gallery to be wrapped right and below main image.

Thanks in advance

This page doesn't have any introtext. All text is inside the fulltext.
The fulltext is set to load after imageGallery and itemNavigation in your template override of K2, therefore the text cannot wrap next to the image.

You could either put some text in your introtext which would load wrapped to the image,

OR

if you want to keep all your text inside the fulltext you could either move the image block before the fulltext block or the fulltext block after the image block inside the item.php of your K2 override.

Thanks for clarifying regarding intro text. i was under the impression that when entering the "read more" separation it transformed into intro text (before) and full text (after) as i could see this first part before "read more" in form of "intro text " in search results...
How to I set up an real "intro text" space in K2 back end ? And after, how to I make it load and wrap around main image to the right and below? This intro text would have to be formatted (font & colour) in category (also word limit would be idea say 40-50 words. You can see here search result page as example: skipropertyshop.com/index.php/component/jak2filter/?Itemid=435&xf_3=1&xf_6=0&xf_9=0&ja_portfolio_tpl=ja_portfolio&__utma=30582973.396394303.1355740922.1356614772.1356620003.9&__utmz=30582973.1356521540.7.4.utmcsr=google|utmccn=(organic)|utmcmd=organic|utmctr=(not%20provided)&t3-tour-firstshow=1&7d90c66f0fb432fc65539d47a96dc30c=cf57a2cb56376d976f61a00bef5d3c9c&jpanesliders_menu-sliders-435=0&jpanesliders_panel-sliders=0&jpanesliders_position-icon=0&7240a5610b002e81d8bb4dd4d021f8c7=e3d86141bd56bdf08b9864b76ca2957c&configuration=system&jpanesliders_permissions-sliders=0&jpanesliders_menu-sliders-565=0&jpanesliders_menu-sliders-566=0&jpanesliders_menu-sliders-=0


Thanks Yiota

The separation between intro text and fulltext is indeed working exactly the same for K2 as it works for Joomla! articles, with the Read More separator.

If you have Disabled the "Use one editor window for introtext & fulltext" option from the K2 General parameters, the Read More separator won't work. You would have to put the introtext in the first box and the fulltext in the second box.

To the specific item, though, it seems that no introtext was setup and all text was showing to fulltext.
When you edited the specific item in the backend you saw the Read More separator?

The word limit is set to the category parameters under the "Item view options in category listings" named "Introtext word limit". You can set it up there.

The formatting is a CSS matter. Try to show the introtext in the correct container and we will work with the rest.

Thanks Yiota,

I have now disabled intro + full texts as one so intro and full are clearly separated (prefer it this way. I have entered word limit for intro in category listing option but cannot see any result... Went to categories tab, edited main category (ski properties) and added word limit to 20 in intro text in item view options in category listings. Then linked the different sub categories to inherit from main category (ski properties)...Maybe I am missing something...

Now that i have intro properly separated from full text, hope I can format (say per category) font, size etc and float to right of main image to the right. Thanks so much for helping again.
