#128232

My header images disappear when I turn on sef urls. I’ve seen the previous threads and tried the fixes but they don’t work for me. I’m using Joomla 1.5.3 with Mageia 1.1 for Joomla 1.5.

It’s only a 6 page simple site with Chronoforms component loaded and a 2 image slideshow in the left sidebar. I’ve amended the header to display over the full width and I’m not using the Newsflash module. No other modifications. Unlike the previous reports, my header doesn’t appear on any of the pages when sefs are on.

Can someone please help? This is my first foray into J1.5 but I have used Mageia twich before on Joomla1.3 without a problem.
Many thanks

any solution to this?

HI
No one seemed to have an answer so all I can do it rebuild the site using Joomla 1.0 instead of 1.5. Pity.

#249277

I fixed this a while ago and notified webmaster@joomlart.com to fix it. The bug is subtle.

Problem: relative urls are used for the header images; submenu items do not work when SEF is enabled on Joomla 1.5.x.

Changing the relative to absolute URLs will fix your problem. Download Mageia 1.1, open index.php in your editor (pref. Notepad++) and look for this line:

<div id="ja-header" style="background: url(templates/<?php echo $JAconfig->template."/images/header/". $JAconfig->ja_color ."/". $ja_header_img;?>) no-repeat top right;">

You’ll need to change it to this:

<div id="ja-header" style="background: url(<?php echo JURI::base();;?>templates/<?php echo $JAconfig->template."/images/header/". $JAconfig->ja_color ."/". $ja_header_img;?>) no-repeat top right;">

Thanks for the kind words lindaneale. Please let me know if that fixes the problem – it certainly worked for me. Apparently the J!1.0.x version is also afflicted by this bug.
Cheers!

Hello – this fix is wunderfull
but….
Now I have the same problem with the Symbols for the font-size AAA
They are only present by the Main-Domain as “www.test.at”
Wenn i surved with the Navigation sample as “www.test.at/index.php/home”
the Font-Size Symbols are not present.

You have an Idea?

What’s the actual domain? I don’t use the font-size tools, will look @ yours to see what the problem may be..
