The Joomla! Forum ™

1. "User Manager" help screen at Help site, you must retype the key reference to "screen.users" (now the key reference is "screen.users.edit").

2. "User Manager [ User : Edit ]" help screen at Help site, you must retype the key reference to "screen.users.edit" (now the key reference is "screen.users.edit2").

3. "Menu Manager [ mainmenu ]" help screen. We have mentioned it above (the help button links to "Menu Item: Link - Content Item"). You said the key reference (screen.menus) is placed into the correct Help Screen. Perhaps it can be duplicated (see "Menu Item: Link - Content Item" at Help Site).

4. "Site Mambots: New / Edit" help screen. This could be a similar issue (the help button links to "Site Mambot: MOS Image"). If the key reference (screen.mambots.edit) is placed into the correct Help Screen, you can check if it is duplicated (see "Site Mambot: MOS Image" at Help Site).

Note: Solution you have adopted for "Template Manager [Site]" Help Screen (the strategy redirecting to the correct screen) could be applied to another cases (see the review for issues highlighted in orange color) => Perhaps you are already doing it

Seeing as it seems quite an effective way of dealing with the issue - I thought I might abandon the idea!

Why? Contradictory ideas for me  .

Unfortunately, there is no standard for this. Most components do not delete the data when uninstalling, this means it is best to check this out before installing.

I am finding some items labeled as plugins but they are failing with both mambot  and component  and module installers.

Docs on plugins would be helpful

Andy,

Please, have a look to the following thread:

http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,149236.0.html

(It reports a problem with "What's New in Version 1.0.0" redirect link into wrapped help).

Hi, Yep I have responded to this and also requested the item be moved to this forum

PS: Another minor subject. Maybe the "Add Menu Item: Component **NEW**" Help Screen can be renamed as the rest of "Menu Items" by deleting the word: "Add".

Delete: Check the check box next to the Section to be deleted. Click the Delete icon to delete the Section selected. A cautionary pop up dialogue will appear asking for confirmation of the proposed deletion. Click the OK button to delete the Category. Select the Cancel button to abort the delete operation.

Delete: Check the check box next to the Section to be deleted. Click the Delete icon to delete the Section selected. A cautionary pop up dialogue will appear asking for confirmation of the proposed deletion. Click the OK button to delete the Section. Select the Cancel button to abort the delete operation.

Reorder: Change the order that the Sections are displayed within the Section Manager. Click the  up or  down direction mini-icons to increase, or decrease, the Section's position in the list by one. Repeat as necessary. Click the save order mini-icon next to the Order heading to save the new order.

You can select more than one section. So there are two definitions to update:

1. See Description:

The Blog - Content Section Menu Item is a shortcut to a Blog style page showing Intro Text of all the published Content Items of a particular Section. It is possible to change the way in which they appear on the display page by changing the number of columns the articles are divided between.

Update to:

The Blog - Content Section Menu Item is a shortcut to a Blog style page showing a number of Content Items'Intro Text. These Content Items may come from a single Section, Multiple Sections, or All Sections as defined below. It is possible to change the way in which they appear on the display page by changing the number of columns the articles are divided between.

2. See Details:

Section: Select the Section from the list of defined Sections to which this Menu Item will create a shortcut.

Update to:

Selection: Select the Section, multiple Sections, or All Sections from the list of installed Sections to which this Menu Item will create a shortcut.

=> BTW: In Joomla! 1.5 i have noticed that you can't select more than one section on Blog Section Layout. I don't know if this is done intentionally.

You can't select multiple sections. The only you can do is select one or all (i don't know if this is a bug). So there would be two definitions to update:

1. See Description:

The Blog - Content Section Archive, Menu Item is a shortcut to a Blog style page showing a number of Archived Content Items' Intro Text. It is possible to change the way in which the Content Items appear on the display page simply by changing the number of columns the articles are divided between.

Update to:

The Blog - Content Section Archive, Menu Item is a shortcut to a Blog style page showing a number of Archived Content Items' Intro Text. These Content Items may come from a single Section or All Sections as defined below. It is possible to change the way in which the Content Items appear on the display page simply by changing the number of columns the articles are divided between.

2. See Details:

Section: Select the Archive Section, from the list of defined Sections, to which this Menu Item will create a shortcut. This field is not editable once the New Menu Item has been saved for the first time. Select multiple Sections or All Sections.

Update to:

Section: Select the Archive Section, from the list of defined Sections, to which this Menu Item will create a shortcut. This field is not editable once the New Menu Item has been saved for the first time. Select a single Section or All Sections.

The title is duplicated.

Example of 1.0.12 Help Screens:

Category Order: Select the order in which the Categories will be displayed within the target page display . There are four choices:

- No, Order by Primary Order Only: Orders the Categories within the selected Section in accordance with the Primary Order setting configured in the next field.
- Title Alphabetical: Orders the Categories, within the selected Section, alphabetically in ascending (A-Z) order, based on their individual Title headings.
- Title Reverse-Alphabetical: Orders the Categories, within the selected Section, alphabetically in descending (Z-A) order, based on their individual Title headings.
- Ordering: Orders the Categories in accordance with the Order settings in the Category Manager for that particular Section, then by the Primary Order (as specified in the Primary Order field).

Primary Order: The Primary Order determines the Order in which the individual Content Items are displayed within the target display page. The Primary Order is applied after the Category Order.

Example of 1.5 Help Screens: (Note: I have adapted it to the 1.0.12 terminology).

Category Order: If the page displays Content Items from several Categories, the Content Items can be grouped by Category, then by primary order (as specified in the Primary Order field, described below). In this drop-down menu, one of the following options can be selected:

- No, Order by Primary Ordering Only: Arranges Content Items only by primary order (as specified in the Primary Order field, described below), regardless of category.
- Title Alphabetical: Arranges Content Items first by Category in alphabetical order, then by the primary order (as specified in the Primary Order field).
- Title Reverse-Alphabetical: Arranges Content Items first by Category in reverse alphabetical order, then by the primary order (as specified in the Primary Order field).
- Ordering: Arranges Content Items first by Category order as set in the Category Manager, then by the primary order (as specified in the Primary Order field).

Primary Order: This controls the order that the Content Items will be displayed in. The setting in the Category Order field (described above) takes precedence. In this drop-down menu, one of the following options can be selected:
