I am totally new to Joomla. I am trying to help a friend whose ISP has stopped support (for some internal reasons). We need to change the title of the home page.
1) The first place i made a change was in the 'Front Page Manager'. I changed the 'Title' column. The 'Show Title' parameter on this page is set to 'Global'. Yet the new title does not appear.
2) I then downloaded the entire site , consisting of 10,000 files and searched for the old title in all the files. I found the old title in one file which seemed to be used for SEO pruposes , since it had a whole lot of companies and their titles. I uploaded this file. No effect.
3) I then browsed through the database (MySQL) and changed old titles found in MetaKey and MetaDescription columns to new title. I think i checked all tables (almost 100 odd tables). No effect.
4) I found the old title in the 'Top Menu' item and changed it too.
I know this is a bit ambiguous but how could i troubleshoot the source of this title which does not get changed ?
Thanks,
Chak
Titles in Joomla come from several places. As Legycsapo said, the first place you should look is the default menu item. In the Parameters (System) the Page Title should override any other setting unless you have an extension that sets the page title. The Show Page Title option determines if the title shows up in the content, it does not affect the page title.
Try to change it in the menu options. In the mainmenu, click on the "Home" link, or whatever you write for Frontpage, and there are options in the right. The last one is the parameters, system, there is a "Website title" input box. Try there !
You need to change the home page title in the Control Panel Configuration.
In the Site tab you have the Site Name which is what will be written in the page title.
Another solution is, if you have SEF urls enabled, joomla has a native plugin called SEOsimple. Look under Plugin Manager, click on it and change the title to either disable so that it takes the title by default from global configuration or your custom one.

How can one play around with TypoScript code shown in documentations about TypoScript?
Tested with a local Typo3 test instance, Typo3 version 9.5.5, Official Introduction Package installed.
In the backend, create a new page in the tree. Rightclick -> enable it (the red overlay should disappear). Make sure it is selected in the tree.
Click on the blue Template button on the left. Usually it will show you the blue No Template message.
Make sure on the top Info/Modify is selected from the drop down.
Click the gray + (New record) button under the drop down.
On the bottom, click Edit the whole template record.
Optionally give it a speaking template and website title, like 'Playaround' and 'Play Around'.
Optionally, under tab Options -> Clear, select Constants and Setup - this will clear everything this Template has inherited from parent templates, but will also disable the debug infos at the bottom of the frontend for this page (if you have installed the Official Introduction Package).
Under the tab General -> text entry Setup, enter the following TypoScript:
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.value = Hello World
press the Save and then the View button.
A new tab opens, showing you the frontend for your page, printing the text 'Hello World'.
Now you can play around with the code examples given in eg. the TypoScript Reference.
Funnily enough, I just found out that Typoscript is by definition not a programming language, but a configuration description. That's why Typo3 is needed as a substructure for this, I think. There seem to be online demos of Typo3 on the net, but I don't know whether they are up to date and whether you can test TypoScript there. Therefore access local containers / installations as suggested. Or if the possibility exists a dev subdomain.
I am building a website with the Modx CMS.
Now i want to have multiple content area's on one page.
My solution: create an extra TV, set the TV with form customisation to the content, so the tv is under the content.
I created a template looking like this:
[[$top]]
<h1>[[*pagetitle]]</h1>
[[*content]]
[[!myCustomSnippet]]
[[*Other Content]]
[[$bottom]]
After creating the TV, i've set it's region to modx-resource-content.
The result:
As you can see, the text is messing with the CKEditor.
Somebody any ideas how to fix this?
(Using version 2.3.1-pl)
If you are looking to get TVs appear under the content textarea, it is better to use MODX system setting to that. Please goto Settings, and search for tvs_below_content and set it to Yes.
By doing this, the TVs will appear under the content textarea on single page instead of having their own separate tab.
Hopefully this helps.
I have added multiple products in my zen cart store. The problem is when i click on a specific product, the image wont show. It remains blank.
http://www.fmchase.com/
Above is the url of the site. When we go to a single product, i image of that product is not displayed, though it is displayed on the category.
The image it's looking for doesn't exist.
e.g http://www.fmchase.com/images/large/Aquafresh%20little%20Teeth%20toothbrush_LRG.jpg
returns a 404 (not found) error.
edit: The category page is using a different image http://www.fmchase.com/images/Aquafresh%20little%20Teeth%20toothbrush.jpg
The problem is in your new template. Go to includes/templates/your_template/templates/tpl_modules_main_product_image.php and change all variables matching $products_image_medium to $products_image
This should fix your problem.
I removed
Content-Security-Policy module from .htaccess
and I got my listing images back
I wonder what is the best way to do this.
I have two menues on the template for the first two levels of the navigation. They are separate, because they are on slightly different locations on the page.
Now, I used to put all my special meta-nav and footer pages into a sysfolder. That actually works pretty fine with special.directory. So far all good.
But when I open a link from the footer, the footer menu's links are shown in the 2nd-level HMENU. It makes more or less sense as the pages are in a sub-folder and therefore 2nd-level. , but they are in a folder.. So I guessed it should work.
My solution is to hide all pages in the sys-folder and in the footer menu using includeNotInMenu. That works, but I wonder if there is a cleaner solution to avoid sys-folder's content to be treated as 2nd-level pages. I don't like the editor to have to remember to hide the pages to get the expected result.
Thank you
i guess you are asking for "hide in menus". Edit your page sitemap, go to tab "access" select "hide" below "In Menus". Sitemap will not be shown in your menu, as long as you do not set "includeNotInMenu" in your menu rendering.
# assume 12 is the uid of your folder
[PIDinRootline = 12]
# Delete the menu
lib.yourmenu >
# or overwrite it:
lib.yourmenu = TEXT
lib.yourmenu.value = there is nothing to see here
[end]
Using conditions is more difficult to debug. You need to select them in TypoScript Object-Browser, if you want to see the effect of an condition.
You can sent an entryLevel
Defines at which level in the rootLine, the menu should start. Default
is "0" which gives us a menu of the very first pages on the site.
If the value is < 0, entryLevel is chosen from "behind" in the
rootLine. Thus "-1" is a menu with items from the outermost level,
"-2" is the level before the outermost...
See http://wiki.typo3.org/TSref/HMENU
I'm not sure I understand.. Assume I have the following structure
home
home/subpage1
home/subpage2
meta-nav
meta-nav/sitemap
meta-nav/impressum
-> meta-nav is a folder.
Now I have a HMENU for the 2nd level and it shows (depending on the selected page):
(subpage1 and subpage2) or (sitemap and impressum)
Now what I want to achieve is to open the sitemap or the impressum and not see those in the HMENU.
Sorry if that all sounds strange ;-)
I am running WSS3.0 and have a custom list which contains versioning on a couple of fields. When I click on an item and I view the item page I see the history of all the fields which I have made changes to. This works fine as expected.
I have also created a page using Microsoft Office Sharepoint Designer and using a DataFormWebPart I have created a page that shows all the items in the list in a list view, I have also changed the XSL node of the DFWP to display the datain a way that my client wants.
The issue that I have is, it is only showing the latest version of the item record e.g. some of the fields are blank as the client did not update those fields the last time that the item was saved. I can fully understand why it is not showing these previous versions of the item but is there anyway that I can change an option in the webpart that will return that last non blank version of the field?
If this is not possible does anybody know if it is possible to change the edit page for the item so that it defaults certain fields to have the previous value of the field.
Many thanks for you ideas in advance

I eventually was able to add the following jQuery code at the bottom of the page (using Sharepoint Designer). You will also need to add a link at the top of the page to include a link to the jQuery code (or you can install it as a feature).
<script>
jQuery.fn.GetLastUpdate = function () {
$updates = this.parent().next().clone();
$("nobr", $updates).remove();
$("a", $updates).remove();
$("br", $updates).remove();
$lastUpdate = $updates.text().split("(): ")[1]; //.find("a").replaceWith("##++##").text();
this.text($lastUpdate);
return $lastUpdate;
}
$("[title='CONTROL_TITLE']").GetLastUpdate();
</script>
Then you just have to replace the CONTROL_TITLE with the title of the text box that you want to auto fill.
