Hi,

I seem to be having problem all of the sudden with URLs from News Pro tile modules linking to K2 articles. Here's a picture to illustrate the issue (it's been giving me issues with module placement, otherwise it wouldn't be a big deal):

Any ideas? I must be overlooking some small setting or something, I'm just stumped at what else to try.

Thanks!

Hi!

I do have a K2 category for the section. I tried deleting and remaking the category, article, and News Pro module which displays the content.

Any more ideas? Thanks again!

Hi

Ok. I think I got it.

The correct link (example: index.php/environment-design/clouds) has it's own menu item with type of K2 item.

Wrong links do not have an item item at all. I had tried to add a K2 category layout (You have only "featured articles"), but this does not fix this problem. The only think it does it to replace "component" in link to category name. I think the best option will be to use some 3rd party SEF extention in this case.

You are right! I was completely forgetting my menu-item addition for every new article in a hidden menu. Problem solved!

I appreciate your help, thanks again!
