Title: Item Id's and Joomla 1.0
Post by: Mike VanKirk on January 24, 2008, 07:16:29 PM
When you click on a Latest News item or and article on your Frontpage and it opens with all of your Frontpage modules instead of just the news item, then you need to set up your configuration.

For Joomla 1.0,

In the backend top menu, go to Site > Global Configuration and click on the 'Content' tab.

Near the bottom will be Itemid Compatibility Mode

Choose Joomla 1.0.11 and before if you would like your content item to open with no frontpage modules present.

Mike:

Is this also an issue in 1.5? Can the issue be fixed the same way in 1.5?

Thanks.

Should be Joomla 1.0.13 as that was when it was introduced.

You should be using 1.0.15 anyway as it is a security fix.

Hello!

I'm using HiveMind on my site and the frontpage modules still show up when I'm viewing frontpage content. My Joomla ver. is 1.0.15.

I have done what Mike V suggested above and switched the setting on the Itemid Compatibility Mode to no avail. I switched back to the v. "1.0.12 and newer" setting.

I've poked around the Joomla forums and found the following thread to be a smidgen of help,
http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?t=156966

BUT I'm still at a dilemma after seeing that you wrote in some of the code hack described therein. (Also I'm a bit confused with the PHP structure and don't want to screw up the template royally...   ??? )

One thing I have noticed is that the last parameter in the links that contain this problem all have Itemid set to 1. I don't know where to hotfix this in the code.

www.hycdc.org if you want to see what I'm complaining about.

I'm trying to just have the user view the content available on the homepage without the RokHead Rotator and RokSlide modules present.

Thanks RT.

HiveMind onwards got a new menu code which is being fixed, if not already, in related to this issue.

Hey I got it solved so that regardless of the Itemid (even when it's equal to 1) it displays the way I want it.

This code fix was meant for Joomla 1.0.12, but Solution 3 (found at http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?t=156966 ) worked on my Joomla ver. 1.0.15 site with HiveMind for me. I just had to paste the following code segment in every PHP IF statement that checked a mosCountModules(userN) function.

Code:
&& ($option == 'com_frontpage' )
Just a quick check to see if you're on the front page.

This is a hard-code of the Itemid compatibility mode fix, I think. And it will depend on your template the number of times and locations you'd need to paste the code into.

Hope this helps someone!

Joomla 1.5.3 is not fixed as has been suggested, this problem continues with many components also. When component link opened is firn but then after using or saving or whatever will return to home page layout of everything displayed as well as component instead of just the component


using hyperion on J1.5.3 and components return to frontpage layout...

is there a fix??

regards
Steve

See http://www.rockettheme.com/option,com_smf/Itemid,190/topic,31805.msg169460/#msg169460

and what of this, where is rt_rokmenu.php in Hyperion, i don't have it so cant edit it. Again using J1.5.3 with Hyperion template.

Could you give a little more specific detail than reposting same link as above dude!

i'm using 1.0.15, but not HiveMind; Hyperion.  I'm having the same issue where anytime I click "read more" from the rokmenu module, it opens the content on the front page with the font page modules.  what fix do I use?

what i'd really like is for "read more" to link directly to the content item.  is there any way to do this?
