Hi,

Can I have two menus to different categories?
For example, I want a menu for Cars and other for bicycle.

Thanks,
Jose
hello Jose Melendez ,

Yes, you can always create new menu item and select menu type -> single category layout and choose what category you would like to display in this menu item. Check my screenshot below.

Ok. You have a idea on how I can do this?

I have a menu for "News and Events" that is easyblog.
And I have two other menus for "Poems" and "Stories", that are also in easyblog.

Hello Jose,

Are they category based menu's? I could provide some quick hack on your site if you are able to provide us with the back end and FTP access.

Hi,

Because when you see the "News and Events" you see the title "News and Events", and when see the Poems or Stories menu, you see the same "News and Events".

You understandme?

Hello Jose,

The change will get replaced only when you upgrade Easyblog. You need to re-apply the hack again.

hello Jose,

I'm really sorry that delayed of this reply,
I have applied this code in this file -> JoomlaFolder\components\com_easyblog\controller.php

if(JRequest::getString('Itemid') == 193)
{
$id = JRequest::getInt('id');
$category = EasyBlogHelper::getTable('Category');
$category->load($id);
$title = $category->title;
$desc = $category->description;
}

So when you click on this "poemas" menu item, then it will show the category title and the category description on that page. Hope this help.

And below the code you insert?

Thanks,

Ok. I did it...

But I see something strange. If you go to the "Poemas" category and click the article here, in the next page I see the category title
of the other category, "Cuentos"

I don't see that behavior in the other way.

Can you check that?
