2 x same menu items giving diff Category/Article titles

AzimuthDesigns

I've copied the exact replica for 2 other menu items, but they both give very different titles on Category pages and Article pages. It's very odd...i've gone over it for hours and cannot find any difference between the 2 configurations .

Nav Item: "UX/UI Case Studies"
Article page

Category Page

Nav Item: "Film & TV"
Article page
https://azimuthdesigns.com/index.php/editorials/wu-assassins

Category Page (seems ok)
https://azimuthdesigns.com/index.php/film-tv

Example: "Showcase" is working ideally in the subcategory pages for the "Category Title" and "Article Title"
Very close to the other 2 menu items for example.

OK I've now got to the point where at least the right amount of titles are on the page.
I duplicated menu items "Film & TV" from "UX/UI". but they still are giving different results.

Currently

"Film & TV" is now missing the black bar at the top of the nav indicator.
"UX/UI": has the Article and Category Titles switched, but has the nav indicator.

I'd love to find out how the "Film & TV" is also connected to the "Editorial" menu off in "Menus >> Article Layouts >> Editorial" I don't see any indication anywhere that they are connected other than the URL.

It seems to be ok now, did you get it solved?

AzimuthDesigns

Thank you for reaching out.
Unfortunately the issue has not been resolved.
I am unable to get the following resolved:

UX/UI: Article Title is reversed with Category Title
https://azimuthdesigns.com/index.php/ux-ui/ascend-tms
Film & TV: Navigation indication (black bar above) is missing from all individual films
https://azimuthdesigns.com/index.php/editorials/wu-assassins

I'm completely at a loss as to the following:

how is this reversed? it's a saved copy of a working nav?
how can i figure out where and how the menu item "Editorials" is attached to Films?? There is no indication of this association in any of the parameters. I'd love to find out how the "Film & TV" is also connected to the "Editorial" menu off in "Menus >> Article Layouts >> Editorial" I don't see any indication anywhere that they are connected other than the URL.

AzimuthDesigns Hi

It due to the layout of article page you're using for each menu item. I checked the menu item settings of UX/UI page and it used cover layout, I just changed to default layout and it's showing normally layout now.

AzimuthDesigns how can i figure out where and how the menu item "Editorials" is attached to Films?? There is no indication of this association in any of the parameters. I'd love to find out how the "Film & TV" is also connected to the "Editorial" menu off in "Menus >> Article Layouts >> Editorial" I don't see any indication anywhere that they are connected other than the URL.

As I can see that "Editorials" menu item belongs to "Article Layouts" menu, while "Film & TV" belongs to the Main menu of your site. These are 2 different menus.

If you want to show "Editorials" menu item under "Film & TV" item, you can move it to the "Main menu".

Q1: That solves the first issue of the "Default" instead of "article-cover"!
I don' t think I would have ever figured that out.

#2a (Partially solved, but has created the original problem again of the original "Film & TV" to resolve to the home page again)

2b: I've moved the Article menu item to the Main Menu and renamed it "Film & TV test", but cannot get the Articles from that Category to appear below the "Category Description" like on the original "Film & TV" menu item.

Now it appears that both Menu items do not show the Category properly or at all.

I'm at a total loss as to how this is happening. I wish I was smarter!

AzimuthDesigns

OK!
I fixed 2a/2b by making the "Menu Item Type" into "Category Blog" rather than "Model List"

Is there any way to make the Category Title linkable back up to the main Category?

AzimuthDesigns

OK! Challenge success obtained!
I found a work around for Q2!

Page Display > Show Page Heading: Hide
Options > Category: Show

custom.css

.subheading-category,
.page-subtitle {

And I was able to figure out why nav item "UX/UI" is referencing "Articles" buried deep in the following pathway and reversing the "Article" and "Category" Titles again..

Thanks to your assistance above, by applying the same logic/parameters I was able to get the rest all working perfectly now!
