globalnews link incorrect

[kenmarold]

Hi- I'm having a problem with this module...I'm using it on my frontpage and when I click the link it gives me this error: 404 - Article #28 not found. When I did a compare between where the link actually lives (http://saap.unm.edu/sap-news/28-school- ... ueblo.html) versus where global news is looking for it (http://saap.unm.edu/component/content/a ... ueblo.html), I saw the problem...but...how do I fix this? You can try it out on the home page under Recent News at, http://saap.unm.edu

thanks very much.

Hi!

Are you using a particular SEF system?

[kenmarold]

just the standard joomla SEF....is there any solution to this?!

I'm having the same problem.

Joomla 1.5.12, standard Joomla SEF.

As soon as I turn Joomla SEF off, the component works fine.

[kenmarold]

yep...exactly.

I figured out a fix... sort of...

I switched from Joomla SEF to sh404SEF. This fixed the News module immediately. Unfortunately, it broke several of my other modules, and apparently (I can only guess), it's not working so well with J1.5.12 (doesn't save config, everything must be added manually to the config file). It took me a couple hours of frustrating work, but the entire site is now up and running properly under sh404SEF.

Here it is, for a look: http://www.aboutimage.com
