Hi Everyone

I think there is probably a really easy solution to this :-[

All I want to do it make a menu link direct to an article, not to a category. (There will only ever be one article in this category and wanted to avoid going to Category page and then clicking Read More!).

I’ve tried changing the URL in the Menu, but it won’t let me. I’ve tried changing ‘Menu Type’ and that doesn’t work either.

Could somebody please put me out of my misery! 🙂

Many Thanks
Chris

Go to your menu manager and select your menu.

Select new in the upper right corner, under internal link select articles and then select “Article Layout” now under the new menu item parameters you can select the article it should show.

Is this what you want?

Spot on Bennitos!!

Strangely enough, I did change Menu Type this morning to Article Layout, however, I didn’t spot the ‘Select Article’ option in Parameters.

:-[ :-[ :-[

Thanks again, it’s working fine now!
