Joomla 1.0.13 has a setting somewhere under “Global Settings/contents” where you can tell Joomla to calculate the Itemids in the same manner it did up until (and including) Joomla 1.0.11 (that’S what i referred to as ‘compatibility mode’ ). If you can use this you should be alright, if you can’t there is no solution. Sorry I can’t be more helpful.

I love your module. I have spent about 8 hours tracking the front page issue and started looking at mod’ing your module with a menu item id parameter, so you can make sure which menu it works under.

I have a site which needs to go live by the 15th Nov, where I need to have 3 mod_contentitems immediately below mainbody(); The problem is that as I hav e MX comment as soon as you click on an item all hell breaks loose as I can’t turn the contentitems off when it still thinks it’s on frontpage.

I have tried setting $row->_Itemid before it is sent to HTML_content::show, but HTML_content::_Itemid resets it to 1. As you say, patching the core code is a very bad plan.

Is there a solution in 1.0.13 ? I am not sure I get the “compatibility mode” issue.
