Hello,

I am going to use the slideshow as it is; meaning that I would like to link “Take a Tour” and “Buy Now” buttons each to a distinctive articles to let users click and read the whole article. However, what is ugly is the that these tow buttons are displayed in articles as shown in the attached image.

In other words, since each of the articles that I create for “Take a Tour” and “Buy Now” buttons are searchable through the site then if a user attempt to do a search he will be returned with links to these articles that contain buttons just in the midst of the article (as shown on the image).

I need a trick to avoid this. Maybe it is totally related to Joomla itself and maybe it is to get done by tricks on slideshow settings! Maybe I should use menu within my slideshow articles instead of buttons and maybe …..

Please advise.

Thanks,
Vaalfco

Hi,
I know only one way: you copy article’s content and create new article with content you have copied. You put link to new article to button (Take a tour or Buy now button)

Hi Khoand,

Thanks for your advise. I was also thinking of such trick. Yes, that seems the only way but not a perfect one because as said earlier if a site visitor does a search on the site then he will be returned with an article which bears those buttons and when he clicks on the link he will be get to a page purely displaying the article without slideshow in background. It might be Ok with many but I think it is not good for an article to show up twice and in two different places within a website.

If we could bind the FIRST article to slideshow the way it cannot display elsewhere it was of great pleasure.

I do declare that it is a case with Joomla but maybe if we could assign the buttons within the slideshow to a menu item then this problem will not exist any more.

Thanks,
Vaalfco

I have another way, you add this code into <joomla url>/templates/ja_ores/css/template.css file

div#ja-content-main .btlink
{
display:none;
}
