    • Why do you need to use jQuery at all?

      If you add a "system-readmore" link in the article and show the article using "blog" or "category blog" or "featured articles" then the readmore button will be added automatically and the readmore link will open in the same page.

      Even if you coded your own read more button it will open in the same page unless your have specifically told it to do something different by changing target?

    • This is normal Joomla behaviour for "orphaned" or "menuless" articles. To get around this use the hidden-menu technique.

      Create a MENU called "hidden" (no need to create a module to place it anywhere). In the hidden menu, create a MENU ITEM for each of the orphaned articles (single article type) and make sure these menu items are published. Now the hidden menu won't appear on any of your pages, but, the articles will now open in their own page. You can also use the same technique and create a hidden category blog menu item to pick up multiple articles too, thus saving having to create a hidden menu item for every article.

    • Hi,
      Sorry from myside,let me explain my problem.
      I am displaying two articles on home page with other joomla modules. To display an article I am using module partciles.With these both articles are displaying but I want read more button on both articles and it should open on home page only by clicking on read more button. Currently if I click on read more button it is redirecting me to full article on another tab.But I want it should open in same div if I click on read more button.Same way as we can do by jquery toggle button. Read more button should behave like toggle button.Please help me to solve this.
      Thanks

    • That's not how it works. Any "link" (regardless of what it's linked to) will refresh the page and open in a new page (or refresh of same page). You cannot open more of the article in the same DIV because that will require javascript to implement to retrieve the rest of the article from the server. The rest of the article is not present in the page that renders with the readmore.

      This is considered as a customization request which falls way beyond the scope of this support forum. You can always try to post your request in our The Marketplace forum and get (paid) support from someone that is willing to do this.

    • You can put it anywhere you like (although /templates/TEMPLATENAME/custom/js is the recommended place) but that doesn't mean it will execute... You need to load it. You can do that on the "page settings" tab of the base outline. You can add it as an asset in the head tab, a JS asset or in a custom css/js atom.

    • Sorry but what has this to do with your original topic question? You should raise new topics for new questions please to be fair to other members.

      You menu is broken because of your own custom CSS (see screeshot).

      If you want to alter the width of the offcanvas section the n you should do that on the styles tab of the base outline.
