Gotcha … thanks! Hopefully your code above will help find a solution. I appreciate your help…

You got us in the right direction and I think (with your help) I got it… you need to switch the two lines of code:

CURRENT:
<!– Display subcategories –>

if ($catorsec) {
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($obj->id , $obj->section));
}else{
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getSectionRoute($obj->section));
}

<!–End Display subcategories –>

CHANGE TO:
<!– Display subcategories –>

if ($catorsec) {
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getSectionRoute($obj->section));
}else{
$subcatlink = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getCategoryRoute($obj->id , $obj->section));
}

<!–End Display subcategories –>

The “if statement” was reversed…. This is now working perfectly on my test site!

Now there is only one last thing to make this perfect. If you mouse over the module title (News for example), the correct link is displayed however it will not click to the location, it only moves the module. Is there some way to fix that piece?

If you apply the above fix it will work however I agree with you that JA should have responded with a confirmation of the fix and that it will be included in the next update. 🙂

Well done! You’ve nailed it. 😀

Like everyone is saying I’m surpirsed the JA team has not addressed these concerns. Probably too busy with that new template they plan to release later this month.

And I think I’ve found the solution here!

In TEMPLATES / JA_VAUXITE / JS / ja.ddmod.js (line 30)

Change from this:


onDragStart: function(element, ghost){
ghost.setStyles({'opacity':0.7, 'z-index':100});
element.getChildren().setStyles({'opacity':0.3, 'z-index':1});
element.addClass('moving');

To this:


onDragStart: function(element, ghost){
ghost.setStyles({'opacity':0.7, 'z-index':-1});
element.getChildren().setStyles({'opacity':0.3, 'z-index':1});
element.addClass('moving');


The problem was that the “moveable” area of the category header was in front of the actual category link. This puts the moveable area behind the link.

So now
1. Quick click and the new page opens.( you’ll still see a little “Jello Jiggle” because it’s still a moveable area)
2. Click and drag…and the link is defeated and the move is executed.

Have fun!
John.

You guys are geniuses!

Errrm, a couple more things to solve. … please. 🙂

Basically, I like my front page to all fit on the screen which is why I liked this template so much because you can collapse the menus as well as the News modules.

1- first puzzle, the module only remembers its collapsed state via cookies I think and if you surf from another PC it will not be in the previous state you left it. Is there are a way to have the modules always start with a collapsed state (or opened state) as default?

2- If you collapse all the news module and have say one above another, the drop down menu’s second item overlaps the title of the one module below it and thus is not clickable. See attached image. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks!

Not sure how to fix your first issue but I found this on the forum to fix the second one…
