Hi,

I was using another news ticker, but I switched to yours because the first was throwing js errors.

The site I have installed it on is http://curefa.org. There are 5 news ticker modules on the left side of the main content area.

I have it set-up properly, but I'm having an issue with the link that is created in mod_artnewsticker.php. I was going to just write a template override, but then realized that this module is not conforming to the standard MVC layout.

When you click on any of the articles, the url that the module is trying to create appears to be:
http://curefa.org/?id=#### (shows the actual article id!)

I see the code
echo '<li class="news-item"><a href="' . JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=' . $row->id) . '">' . $row->title . '</a></li>';

and it looks correct. It just doesn't act that way.

The site is using the most current version of Joomla and uses the T3 Framework with the t3_bs3_blank template. Any idea why these modules are not responding properly?

Thanks,
Will

I had the same problem and I think I've got the solution. On your site, in modules/mod_artnewsticker/mod_artnewsticker.php there's a section of code that looks like:


foreach ($rows as $row) {
echo '<li class="news-item"><a href="' . JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=' . $row->id) . '">' . $row->title . '</a></li>';
}


(The "echo" line is what the OP posted). That's where it's getting the rather simplistic link from. With the help of a look through the Expandable News Ticker code, I've changed mine to this:


foreach ($rows as $row) {
$slug = $row->id.':'.$row->alias;
$catslug = $row->catid.':'.$row->category_alias;
$link = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($slug, $catslug));
echo '<li class="news-item"><a href="' . $link . '">' . $row->title . '</a></li>';
}


Seems to work for me, assuming this is the same issue you were having. You could also add a 'target="_blank"' in the href here if you felt like it.

Hello Will,

I have nearly the same problem. I'm also working with the T3-Framework and the url structure is not working. How have you solved the problem?

hope you read it ....
