OT News with breadcrumb and URL format was created by yesgogogo chou

I really love this tiny but powerful module, it helps me a lot!
Thanks for your development :woohoo:

After play with it, I have some questions.
One is breadcrumb.
I apply joomla(2.5) built-in breadcrumb to the whole site, except home page.
I found the "hidden menu" will show on the breadcrumb.
How can I make it invisible?

One is article's URL.
It seems the article's URL will be "indexed" if we link to that article from OT News.
For example, if I go to the article from main menu, the URL is like below.
http://localhost/index.php/branch/east-store
If from OT News, the URL will become
http://localhost/index.php/hidden-news/1-branch/3-east-store

In your demo-site, the URL is
demo.omegatheme.com/index.php/mega-news/...isciplinary-decision

Can I make the URL like the usual? not showing sequence number ?

Need your advice!

Thanks a lot!!

Hi,

For the Breadcrumbs, very sorry to say that no solution. So you can name it "News" or something look better the word "Hidden News".

For URL, the number you see is the id of category and id of article. It comes from this code (helper.php):

Code:

$item->slug = $item->id.':'.$item->alias;
$item->catslug = $item->catid.':'.$item->category_alias;
if ($access || in_array($item->access, $authorised))
{
    // We know that user has the privilege to view the article
    $item->link = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($item->slug, $item->catslug).$menu_itemid);
}

You can change the code to:

Code:

$item->slug = $item->alias;
$item->catslug = $item->category_alias;
if ($access || in_array($item->access, $authorised))
{
    // We know that user has the privilege to view the article
    $item->link = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($item->slug, $item->catslug).$menu_itemid);
}

And the number will go out (though not recommended).
