FLEXIContent - v1.5.6 - final for J1.5 released (r1648)

I fixed this , and added much more options to make field a lot more powerful as well as usable:

+ Added: 2 Scopes (category and type), ability for subcategories for category scope
+ Added: more editing options including: Ordering and a Filter mechanism based on filterlist.js
^ Change: Clean up the layout of the parameters

Will post a new public download for v1.5.6 beta today or tomorrow.

hello,
just installed 1.5.6 on a testsite
(data from my site using 1.5.4 ; working great)

I have some url bugs on the testsite to report :
(i am using joomla SEF)

the category url from a menu (or in the breadcrumbs) are like before :
but some url are including "menucategory_alias" "category_alias" and "category_ID"

exemple with the category url from category page or displayed in a "category items" field : the items url are like :
does it make sense for someone ?
do i have to modified something (already tried categories parameters or flexiparameters) ?

Thanks for the new version and your hard work
Loïc

About URLs and SEF URLs and menu itemid(s):

- i wanted to avoid as much as possible to have the new code generate different URLs than the old code.

- Right now i must check what the old code produced for these URLs

- and then make arguments what is really the wanted behavior for the URL formating

- and try to make URLs have predictable and consistent behavior, as much as possible.

I must check this, i thought i had it very right, but it appears it is not? But the good is that it never gives bad (broken) links

Regards

I cannot recreate the behavior, you describe. I have no idea why this is happening, i see that your site uses standard joomla SEF?

i can not update the page unfortunately
but i have compared again locally installtion (FC 1.5.6beta) and globally installation (FC 1.5.5 r607)

The differences are

1. FC 1.5.6beta
2. FC 1.5.5 r607

Perhaps that tells you what is going wrong

The v1.5.6 added no itemid ??? what setting did you have in Global Configuration about adding a "default itemid" ?
