This page contains known issues, resolved or unresolved.

Welcome banner appearing on content pages

Sympton

A content page, e.g. Notice Sheet page, shows the Welcome banner, the actual content and then home page footer.

Root Cause

This can happen when Joomla doesn't know under which menu to display content and therefore default to the home page as menu choice (which has ItemId 101). This means that Joomla will display all the modules that appear on the home around the content.

This will happend when the menu item is of type Tagged Items and the user navigates from summary page to the specific tagged content. For example, if the Notice Sheets menu displays a list of tagged noticesheets and the user selects a notice sheet to view it, Joomla will display the notice sheet in the context of the home page, not the Notice Sheets menu and therefore display the welcome banner and home page footer.

In my view, this is a clearly a bug but there seems to be some discussion on whether it is expected behaviour, see Joomla issue 6970.

Work Around

To work around the issue, for each menu of type Tagged Items, a corresponding menu under Hidden with type Category Blog needs to be created. Once done, Joomla will generate different links for the actual menu of Tagged Items and the specific item page will be displayed in the context of the Category Blog menu item.

sh400sef can be used to determine how the URLs should structured.

Plesk auto upgrade failing
