Hi there,

I want to use single article for some pages, but when selected in the menu nothing shows up.

How can I display a single article?

(at the minute I am using modules for single articles which is not good)

Because Home template style was disabled MAIN COMPONENT on Home page but you can add it into here

Open templates/ja_mitius/tpls/blocks/mainbody-home.php file
from

<?php if ($this->countModules($mastcol)) : ?>
<!-- MASSCOL 1 -->
<div class="ja-mastcol ja-mastcol-1<?php $this->_c($mastcol)?>">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p($mastcol) ?>" style="T3Xhtml" />
</div>
<!-- //MASSCOL 1 -->
<?php endif ?>

change to


<?php if ($this->countModules($mastcol)) : ?>
<!-- MASSCOL 1 -->
<div class="ja-mastcol ja-mastcol-1<?php $this->_c($mastcol)?>">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php $this->_p($mastcol) ?>" style="T3Xhtml" />
</div>
<!-- //MASSCOL 1 -->
<?php endif ?>
<jdoc:include type="component" />


And you can use this guide and make Menu Item Article Single Article

Let me know the result

Hi Ninja,

Thanks for the reply, I have abandoned this project but for helping others I think it should be left up.

Thanks again for the help 🙂

Thank you @ninja Lead! I was going crazy trying to figure out why my single article layouts weren’t working! So why on earth was that removed? What was the template designer thinking? Overrides are how we’re SUPPOSED to be customizing templates for best results and ease of updating, no?

Hi synapsis,

Sometimes, the concept of the template requires us to override the default layouts. The solution is pretty easy but it deviates from the default layout of the demo site.

Yes, our fault is that we should have mentioned the same in the documentation along with solution to revert to default behaviour.

I am lining this up to get updated in the documentation site. Please feel free to PM me incase you find anything else, that should have been highlighted in the documentation.

Regards

Arvind
