hey guys

i having some trouble with the title of the main article (shown on the starting page/index).
my article itself has an title, so that is already shown (once!) by clicking on the news-link.

but if i clicked on "startpage" again, the title was doubled.
is there any chance to remove the first title?
tried a few templates, but it seems to depend on core side.

i want the first title to be removed. any suggestions?

greetings

Can you please provide a screenshot or a link, what version of joomla are you using and try shutting it off in your menu are, where it says global, just shut the link off. See if that helps fix it. Without looking at the site it's difficult to tell what is causing this.

Try opening your menu item for your front page, on the right hand side you will see "Article options". You can choose to show the title or not as well as many other options (show the author, created date, etc.)

as i said: all these options were disabled. by default (global) and even if it is not necessary in the article.

this only happens when opening the index (main page)

if you open the second link, you will see that there is no doubled title.
that only happens on the main page

There are 3 places that control the display of these things.

[*] Menus > Your menu > Your Menu Item > Article Options on the right
[*] Content > Article Manager > Options in the upper right
[*] Content > Article Manager > Your article > Article Options on the right

Menu Item > Article Options:

Use Global - Uses the settings that you have set when going to Content > Article Manager > Options in the upper right.

Use Article Settings - Uses the settings chosen by going to Content > Article Manager > Your article > Articles Options on the right.

Show -
Hide
- Will normally supersede the settings that are set in both Article Manager options (Both article and global). For example, if I set both options in Article Options and Global Options to set the Title to "Hide" but then in the Menu Item I set it it to "Show" the title is normally displayed as set in the Menu Item.

Have a look at these settings in the different locations and see what is going on. Also there is no "Off" option. Perhaps you meant "Hide". ;)

all these options are still off and hiding is disabled...
in normal cases the title wont show up, like i configured.

but the article ONLY on start page (which you can let show up every time your site loads its index-page) will show the title, regardless what i set in the configs.

i deactivated all the options in the backend. after that i disabled it at my article. and after that, i tried to delete the title at the article itself, but wohoo...that doesnt work.

there must be a way to fix this.

thanks for helping
