List all categories not working

Post by funken »

I am trying to show a list of all categories using the Phoca Download Plugin and this shortcode:

{phocadownload view=categories|text=Categories|target=s}

But using that code only shows a box with a link named Categories. The URL created for that link is:

http://mydomain/component/phocadownload/ and results in a 404

Why does the link look like that? Pointing to the component is clearly totally wrong.

How do I make a list of existing categories?

I use the latest version of both the component and the plugin.

Hi,
[...]and results in a 404
Did you create a menu link to Phoca Download Component (List of Categories)?
See: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/16-jooml ... -in-joomla
So if you are using module or plugin which works together with component (e.g. modules and plugins for Phoca Download, Phoca Gallery, etc.) then you need to create menu link to component, so module or plugin can find Itemid of the component menu link and can create the link to component correctly.
Kind regards,
Benno
