Related item & Menu Highlighting not updating from Table-Content Category links

Postby rsphaeroides on Sat Sep 03, 2005 7:23 pm

Mambo 4.5.2.3

I'm trying to use the related item module but can't seem to get it to function when I access a content item by clicking on a linked title on a Table-Content Category page.  The pathway updates to show the title of the content item, but neither the related item module nor the highlighting of the active item on the menu updates.

If I click on a content item in the menu rather than on the linked title on a Table-Content Category page then the pathway, related item, and menu all updated correctly.

Also if I click on a content item in the related item list then the pathway, related item, and menu all updated correctly.

As I've set up more pages, I've also discovered that clicking on a linked title on a Table-Content Category page presents a page that somehow ignores the menu item links set for individual modules.

In other words, the modules that are supposed to show up on the page do not.

This seems to be a fairly significant problem with the mambo core, someone else must have noticed it and there must be a solution... I've looked through the faq, manuals and tutorials to no avial.

If you'd like to see an example of what I'm talking about

http://costa-rica-guide.com/travel/index.php?option=com_content&task=category§ionid=1&id=4&Itemid=18
Click on the linked title "Module-Moon Phase" under "Item Title"

compare the page you see at that link with the correctly formed page you get when you go to the same page
[url=http://costa-rica-guide.com/travel/index.php?option=com_content&task=category§ionid=1&id=4&Itemid=18]
http://costa-rica-guide.com/travel/inde ... &Itemid=18[/url]
and Click on the menu item moon phase in the right hand menu
¡Pura Vida!
