Hello,

On one category blog page, I need to display a module with a list of items from a subcategory.
(it's a kind of news articles)

I cannot just (or I did not find the way to) display subcategory articles, since it seems to be a parameter that is applying to ALL categories, and I don't want ALL categories to display subcategory articles.
So I'm trying to use the Joomla module 'articles - category' (not so sure of the name in english, sorry I'm french, and so is my Joomla admin).
It works but... the URL for the articles contained in this module are not "clean".

They look like :
mysite.fr/component/content/article/139-category-level-1/category-level-2/category-level-3/category-level-4/256-item.html?Itemid=435
When they should look like :
mysite.fr/category-level-3/category-level-4/item.html

The problem is : 1st the URL are way too long, 2nd it generates kind of duplicate content...

Any idea of what I should do to get clean URLS, normal URLS on these items inside this module?
Or, is there any module compatible with FC to do the same thing ?
Or is there any way to get subcategory items displaying only in the categories where there are needed?

Thak you for your help.

Hello

The Joomla module "Article - categories", will create Joomla article links
- that is the expected behaviour

please create a module of type:
- "FLEXIcontent - Categories" Module
or
- "FLEXIcontent Universal content" Module

which particular feature are you missing ?


-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...

Hello,
The "FLEXICONTENT Universal content" module is doing perfectly what I was looking for, thank you!
Just one thing please: how could I ask the module to keep the html for the category description?
Currently, it is not (title and desccription are displayed the same way, on the same line)
This module is quite complicated, and a tutorial would be welcome ;-)
Thank you again.

Hello

category title and category description (and category image)

are inside containers that you can style with CSS,

e.g. for category description
Code:
<span class='catdescr'>...</span>

Hello,

Thank you, but this is not a solution. All I want is the html styling of the category description being respected. ie h2, h3 etc.
As for now, the h2 or h3 tags inside the description are not respected / rendered. And I could not find any way to keep the html for the category description (it is possible for the items, but not for the category)

For info :
I use the html in order to have a H2 title for categories, and I don't display the real title of the categories (the title dispalyed is a line of text inside the description, within H2 tags). I tried hard to get this using css, but I could not get the proper result, si i found this solution.

Hello

we can fix a bug or implement some important feature,
or fix default styling that is broken,

Combining styling with specific template is not our intention, this can be done by web-site creator
- are you reporting a bug / issue ? i don't understand why this is something to be done by FLEXIcontent

we do not have general H2, H3 styling
Code:
h2 {...} h3 {...}

so what should we "fix" ?
