Wrong path to the detail page of news article

waldo99

Hi,

having a news-pro-module on homepage - when you click on an article you should get to the detail page of this article.
This worked fine the last 2 years. But now the path to the article is wrong. You click on the article thumbnail and you will remain on homepage, trying to show the article.

Example:
Click on the news article on homepage leads to this path:
[https://www.pirkdorfersee.at/de/36-deutsch/angebote/angebote-chaletpark/190-almrausch-petzen-bikeurlaub]

But the detail article is here:
[https://www.pirkdorfersee.at/de/aktiv/ueber-uns/angebote/36-deutsch/angebote/angebote-chaletpark/190-almrausch-petzen-bikeurlaub]

I know that there are sometimes problems with the SEF Urls, language and cache; so I tried a lot of things:

Menu item new, https://www.pirkdorfersee.at/de/aktiv/ueber-uns/angebote
Plugins system languagecode + languagefilter deactivated and activated again
made a Database repair
all cache features deactivated
SEF Urls deactivated, then activated
Url rewrite deactivated and activated

.... I have no idea anymore!
Thanks for help!

Hi waldo99

The info for additional protection for administrator seems not working, could you check and update again?

I gave you a new user login; the /administrator protection is now deleted.
please try again without this.

Hi waldo99

Thanks for the info, I can access your site now.

The issue comes from the menu item type & assignment only. Let me explain a bit here.

It relates to 2 menu items: Home & Angebote & Packages. Both of these menu items have type of 'Featured Articles', this is a special menu item type in Joomla, when you show the 'News Show Pro GK5' module on homepage >> click to view an article of this module, Joomla will find the menu item that article belongs to, if the menu item 'Angebote & Packages' has another type like category blog or other type of article com_content, it will redirect to that page correctly. However, this menu item also has 'Featured articles' type - the same as homepage, so when you clicked, it will take the homepage as its menu item and kept showing on the same homepage.

I just tried to change the 'Angebote & Packages' menu item to 'Category Blog' menu type + assign category that article belongs to to this menu item and you can see it's working fine now.
