Joomla 1.5 500 errors on all menu items - joomla1.5

I have a website that was working just fine for a long time but out of the blue, the main menu off the template and a module menu are all giving 500 errors.
You are still able to grab articles by their ID's and view them.
You can also create a new menu items and that new menu item will work just fine.
Why would all menu links just break but you can create new ones and they work?
We have over 40-50 different menu's depending on what pages you’re on. I would hate to have to re-due this whole process and instead fine a fix to it.
Any ideas?

It can be apache mod_rewrite that is not loaded.
Have you touched to apache (or any web server) configuration ?
Administration panel > Menu > Site -> Global Configuration -> Site: Search Engine Friendly URLs to No
If your website works, then the mod_rewrite module is your problem.

Mouseup event is not propagated to a popup window in IE 11

I've a legacy app that features a DND from a popup window to the main one.
It works fine in IE 8 but not in any of the newer versions of IE. The effect results in the drag ghost image being stuck in the source window and not going away after the drop had occurred.
Some debugging did in fact confirm that the 'mouseup' event does not get propagated back to the source window. What can be done to fix it? Many thanks!
ITs a bit hard to begin to answer your question without some code....
use the File>Properties menu to find out which IE security zones the two windows(domains) map too...IE uses a different security model to other browsers... drag/drop is probably not allowed between local web files (using file: protocol) and internet or intranet sites.
Have you used the Dev tool yet to debug it? If you are using showModalDialog (which normally disables context menus) you can right click on a link (a) or input element to display the context menu so you can display the debugger for showModal content page.
If possible include a link to your website or a mashup (jsfiddle) with your questions.

DNN Extensions fail to load DNN 7.4.2

My first DNN site. Please go easy.
I'm trying to load some extensions (Blog & a PayPal extension).
While the admin console show's they're installed I can't see them or start them. They are not evident on any of the menus.
The theme creators say its not their problem.
Any suggestions for a Newby on how to get the extensions working?
thanks
You actually need to go to the page where you want a module to live and then use the Modules admin menu entry to Add New Module to the page. Click the menu entry, and you can drag and drop a module onto the page.
Yes.
They're listed and "In Use" is recorded OS "No"
OK - here's a screenshot of the Admin Page in Edit Mode whilst loggedon as a Super User after an Extension Module has been added to the page.
As you can see:
The extensions are not showing
Instead the area on the page shows 'Banner Options' even though no banners were inserted.
You are on the Admin page, and it certainly looks like you have added two modules to the bottom of the page. One of them seems to be the Banners module, as the screenshot shows that mousing over the edit pencil icon shows the Banner Options.
My guess is that this isn't close to what you want to do.
I think that what you want to do is to add a module or modules to some other pages.
So, go to the page to which you want to add a module. Then, click or mouseover the Modules menu item in the admin menu. Select a module and add it to the page.
Does that make more sense?

Menu of sites in multidomain Neos

In TYPO3 Neos, how can I build a menu containing the list of sites available? If I use entryLevel = 0, I get the list of pages under the current site.
not with the normal "Menu" so much I can say. It was intended to be used inside a site. I have no obvious solution for you right now, but will check back. You probably could create a little plugin fetching the site and domain records from their repositories and creating a menu from that.

how to change layout for whole site in DotNetNuke 7

I have just started learning DNN. I dug a little into this but I just can't change the layout for whole site. I am using Awesome cycle template as starting.
I need to redesign site header and footer. If I made change in Skins\Gravity\Home.ascx then these changes are only appearing to my home file.
I can change the CSS the way I want but I am just unable to change the base html of header in entire site. (like we do in master pages in ASP.NET or layout in MVC)
Your problem probably has to do with DNN supporting different skins for different pages.
You have to check if all pages use the same skin. I think that in DNN7 default site template pages use different skins. You can check this if you go to Edit Page -> Page Appearance -> Page skin
If you set all the pages to use the Gravity skin, then changes you make at the .ascx file will apply to all pages.
A uniform way to change the layout for the whole site is to set every page skin to 'None specified' and then only select skins from Admin -> Site Settings -> Basic Settings ->Appearance ->site skin.
You can update the DNN database using an update query on the Tabs table:
update Tabs set SkinSrc = REPLACE(SkinSrc,'OldSkinName','NewSkinName')
where SkinSrc like '%OldSkinName%'
You can also rename the containers using a similar query:
update TabModules set ContainerSrc = '[G]Containers/MySkin/NewContainer.ascx'
where ContainerSrc = '[G]Containers/MySkin/OldContainer.ascx'
In the latest operation remember to clean the dnn cache using : Host > Host Settings > Advanced Settings > Performance Settings , click on the “Clear cache” button.

Cannot see Content Type in Orchard

I am running Orchard 1.6 and have the following problem when setting up a Site of either template Blog or Core.
I go to the dashboard and go to the Content menu item on the left. There is no Content Type menu item only Content.
All training videos seem to get this straight away, what am I doing wrong?
Go to the modules (there's a link in the left menu) and enable ContentTypes feature.
