Title: article link modules conflict with Ijoomla Mag
Post by: barton91 on April 12, 2008, 08:51:12 AM
It seems that I have been running into this problem for quite some time and I would like to know if others have to. I set up Ijoomla Mag {IM), as my Home page for "mainmenu". I then created Magazines and Issues, which produces it own Link-url in the "Magazines" menu. I then move over the Link-url to the "mainmenu". Therefore, I have something like this in my "mainmenu"
------------
Home -- component--> ijoomla magazine
menu1   link-url
menu2   link-url
menu3   link-url
menu4   link-url
------------

Therefore, I am able to load articles on the homepages, which is great. The PROBLEM, is what when I put modules that has article link in it, like "latest News" and "Popular articles", when ever someone click on the articles within one of the modules, the articles loads at the bottom of homepage, instead of another area. I was just wondering, what could be the problem, then I came up with this.

________________________________

Could it be?
I  read that one of the limitation, is that Ijoomla Mag and everything is seen as one component, so when I have all the menu links at top then use one of the module that shows a list of articles, it has no where to go but the front page, because Joomla is looking at Ijoomla Mag as just one component? Could this be the reason why when I click on the links of one of the module list such as "random news" or "newsflash" it loads it on the front page? If so, could there be a way around?

The problem was what I stated before. Because the articles on the link modules has no where to go, it will load on the front page. So what I did was create another menu section. I was using "othermenu". I created a Blog->category. I didn't need to show "othermenu", to my visitors, however when they click on the article link, it will show the article in a different section. I HOPE THIS HELP SOMEONE OUT THERE. It took me a couple of days and researching to figure out what the problem was.
