Upgrade problem with 7.8615

This may be due to Itemid consistency fix. Try to set correct Itemid to all sections and types. And would be nice if you give link to see. Better with admin access.

I upgraded again to 7.8615 and try to add a new menu item (Cobalt section records list). Same problem.

You can check my test website :

Today I was at the site and looked at the settings:

The section has 'Home' itemId and the types has their own itemids. Thats all correct. The conflict occurs when when we try to open the categories with Homes item.

Try to set up links taking them from the categories module. The test link with Asia now is working

It is a bug. To fix it right now open file views/records/view.html.php and in line 110 find line

$app->redirect(JRoute::_(Url::records($section, ($category->id ? $category: null)), TRUE));

And change TRUE to FALSE so you get

$app->redirect(JRoute::_(Url::records($section, ($category->id ? $category: null)), FALSE));

Or wait new release.

Thanks, Sergey. I modify the file and it works now.

I don't know what you call a 'Itemid consistency fix'.

But now I ALWAYS have the same Itemid (EVEN when I deleted this menu item !),

EVEN when I use an external URL (to assign modules to different categories as you suggested)

EVEN when I change manually the Itemid in the URL page.

So I cannot assign modules anymore to different categories.

Thanks for help.

You have to set itemid in section parameters for section. If you want to have different Itemids for categories set it in categories parameters. But create links to categories as external URL.

Here is the instruction

1. Create hidden menu and create there as many links to the SECTION root as you need links to categories.

2. Edit categories and set those itemids to every category.

3. Create link in main menu to section with is visible.

4. Open it and copy category links and insert them in visible menu as externt URLs.

I think this will help you accomplish what you want.

Many thanks.

In fact, I forgot to set the Itemids in the categories (or more exactly didn't understood exactly what and where to do this).

And with previous versions, it was not a problem.

Except with the links inside the Cobalt sections / categories. And I resolved this issue with a small hack...:D

This time, everything works as expecting and with standard Cobalt.:S
