OT News - miss the action from read more

Hello,

You did not enter my website wich you wanted to do for me, to help yet?

I saw this new topic with my reply and yours on it with an answer (see below that answer)
I followed the link you wrote for the solution.
But you make it a bit too difficult for me.
My php is not that good for writing something good wich will work...
And I do not want to use it on the home page...
I hope you understand that this NEWS module is so nice that people will use it everywhere on websites, I think.....

Can you do for us what you did for the other person See it below?
"Hi,
You can download the modified version of Mega MiniNews module (mod_megamininews) included in mega_eSporter for Joomla 1.7. I 've added support Itemid params and you can add an Itemid of page you want.
Just download, install (not need to remove old one) and then config."

Hi Lorenzo,

As user "gwszvh" said, you can see that topic. The problem can called: module appears again.
The Ot News is designed for homepage, so if:
1. you put the module at homepage,
2. choose module to display at homepage only (in menu assignment section when edit module in back-end)

If you meet 2 above conditions, then when click to readmore or link, it shows article on the page which module won't appear again. (See demos here)
If you put module on inner page, the module will still show when you click to readmore or link.

My topic has a few answers with no solution yet for me. Maybe it will work for you.
Its called "OT News - miss the action from read more"


Actually we have "The solution for all that cases" - that is "add custom Itemid to the readmore link and article link, then choose module not shown on that Itemid/page". This solution required you know some about Joomla, php so can modify the module.

There is a topic same this problem and solved, another module, but can help you all understand why.

Thanks

Hi,
I've uploaded the modified version here - please login to download (if it ask you login twice).

The usage:
1. Create a hidden menu and add a menu item called "journaal" - for example. I call it hidden menu because we don't publish the module of that menu on front-end, just create and publish menu and menu-item.
2. After create menu-item, you'll have menu item id. Paste that number at Itemid parameter of OT News module. Also, at Menu Assignment area, choose:
- Module Assignment: only the pages selected.
- Menu Selection: please only select menu and menu item at the step 1.

That's all. when click to any article links or readmore links, it will show that article on the page specified.

Goodluck!

Thanks for the new module...

But unfortunally I cannot install the new module
I get a few errors...

I have sent you my admin login and password.
I hope you can arrange it for me... we are in public air with this new site no, but my client is not happy yet.. Many thanks again

See the file what the problem is...
