Phoca Forum

Hi,

I have created a menu link which shows the pagination correctly when I go into the correct section. It lets me changed the numbers etc ok.

The menu link is

/index.php?option=com_phocadownload&view=category&id=1:letters&Itemid=314

When I paste this link into the external link section to make a direct menu link to it then it changes the menu and the pagination does not show, I have checked the settings and they all seem okay.

/index.php?option=com_phocadownload&view=category&id=1:letters&Itemid=314&Itemid=278

It adds the new menu itemid to the end of the link, I do need this as the menu is linked to another template.

Any Ideas?

Hi, there is a problem with Itemid:

Itemid=314&Itemid=278

it is created 2x

Did you add it as external link?

Yes I added it as an external link.

The link I pasted was

index.php?option=com_phocadownload&view=category&id=1:letters&Itemid=314

Whenever I click on the link it adds the second itemid

One other thing thats not working is when I create the link to the sections like

index.php?option=com_phocadownload&view=sections

Whne I click on it then the link becomes

index.php?Itemid=314&option=com_phocadownload

So I get a 404 error... I end up adding the &view=sections to it and it works.

I am using SEF advance but I have placed Phoca Download into the ignore section.

Hi, try to disable the advanced SEF (for testing)

It seems to add the itemid at the end of everything, including if I use the plugin.

I tried disabling the SEF but it still does it.

The SEF has a ignore part and I have ignore the Phoca plugin, its really weird.

I have had to use a redirector for the plugin which redirects the page to the correct one.... its linked to the error you get that I have seen on this forum about when you click on a download and it takes you to the logon page.

So I have a workaround but it means I am having to make redirectors for menus I want to use..

Weird huh.
