We have created a hidden menu which goes the search results page. We have added this menu ItemID under the "search page URL" in the RokAjaxSearch module. However when we do a search and click on the link "view all results" the url is always without a menu ItemID and therefore looks rubbish.
How can we get the hidden menu itemid to show when clicking on "view all results"?
Please would you post your URL, superuser id and pswd in the secure tab of your post and I'll have a look for you.
Regards, Mark.

This is one of quirks of Joomla I'm afraid and nothing really RT related. It's hard to get a url (using a standard menu item) that Joomla can match on because of all the additional parameters that are being added to the url. You'd have exactly the same issue with other "component" type output such as shops etc.
So... There are two methods you can emply to get around this... You can use something like SH404SEF (or another SEF extension to rewrite the urls). OR (my preferred option) rewrite the urls in htaccess (i.e. create rule that detects the ?searchword=xxxxxx and rewrite the url as ?Itemid=446&searchword=xxxxxxx in this way you can be sure to use the menu item that you want to use.
