i have default home menu item in main menu which point to a default article.
I want to show my component (i.e com_mywelcomecomponent) into home page of my website.
If try to change the link of menu item to "external link" which point to my component, joomla show me an error
Save failed with the following error: The home menu item must be a
component.
how can i do this?
There is absolutely no issue why you cannot make your component as the home component. Login to administrator and then click on main menu. You will find a default menu item which is starred.
Click on that menu and when you go to that menu details just select your component as the default component.
When you open your site next time you will find your component on frontpage.
In Joomla, Home Menu cannot be an External Link.
You can still have your component linked to Home page, by selecting the Menu Type which will have your component listed in there and select the appropriate view and Save the Menu.
One easy option would be the Components Anywhere extension: https://www.regularlabs.com/extensions/componentsanywhere

can u help me about "admin menu manager" component?
I want to add a new menu to admin menu in back end of joomla that links to a specific module, I do it ,but when I click on it the menu that I created it
myself this error occurs:
*You are not permitted to use that link to directly access that page (#120).
if I pay for pro version of this component that error will solved?
I turned Show Title option for articles to Hide in global settings. So it works for each my page good instead of home page. So the title is still appear, even if I switched it to hide in article that correspond to Home page content.
I suppose maybe something wrong with menu.
So I have next menu:
Home
Photos
Contacts
Each menu content single article, but only Home shows title...
I am using joomla 3
on the screenshot below Home header that I don't need.
on the screenshot below Videos header that set as Show tile in menu item
on the screenshot below Videos header that set as Hide tile in menu item
I am making the same for Home but it does not work the Home tile is still visible.
I tapped on menu items then on home items which is single article:
then I modify visibility options:
save and close - and then update the index page in browser, but nothing happen the header Home is still on the page (
The solution is next:
Click on the “Menus” menu and select “Main Menu”.
Click on the menu item that represents your home page (usually “Home” or something similar)
On the right side, click on “Page Display Options”
Set “Show Page Heading” to “No”
Click on “Save”
http://www.celticwolf.com/blog/2012/09/06/how-to-hide-the-page-heading-in-joomla-2-5/
You have an option to show or hide the title of Articles and also Menus. Usualy is "Home" also the dafault "Frontpage" of the site, having the option to show the title.
Go to Menus -> Default "Home" Menu and under options you should have Show Title and hide it.
This should work, i tested it right now on my page to be sure.
Regards
in joomla 3.x it will be possible by combination of backend settings and source code change.
Login to your joomla control panel.
Go to Global\Articles and turn the "Show Title" and "Article info Title" to Hide.
Go to Global\Menus and turn the "Show Page Heading" to Hide.
Login to your host and go to your public html directory then go to "\templates**[your template]**\html\com_content\article" directory.
open default.php in editor and find
php if $this->params->get('show_page_heading', 1) :
and change the 1 to 0 then save it.
I suggest you to backup default.php file before any changes.
You can disable the Page Heading in the Menu Item options as showed below in my screenshot:
if this don't work, try to go to MENUS - MANAGE - (press the button OPTIONS to the right of the page)
In browser page title press one space , the set the second voice to NO:
Then save and press the REBUILD button.
This happens when you have a multi language site. The "Show Page Heading" option inside the languages home menu doesn´t works at all in this case. It is overrided by the Main Menu home options (that one without any languages assigned to it, that is mandatory in Joomla).
So if you change the "Show Page Heading" option inside the Main Menu home options, it will work.
Bizarre. But, it´s the way that Joomla 3 works.
i've uploaded a joomla (version 1.5.26) site: http://srajib.info/s2l/
when i click any particular event (Right side), it also shows home slider:
http://srajib.info/s2l/index.php?option=com_jevents&task=icalrepeat.detail&evid=3&Itemid=1&year=2013&month=09&day=07&title=long-jump-event&uid=07390f799fedccea98b8ed46532fa4cb&catids=1
if i click any date of calendar (Right side), it also shows home page slider.
how can i avoid to show home slider both cases?
Try this:
Go to your Module Manager
Identify your frontpage slider module, and click on its name
In the Menu assigments section click the Select Menu Item(s) from the List option
From the list below it you can select the pages/menu items that you wish the module to be displayed on. Make sure to deselect the Events and Calendar menu items.
Click the Save icon in the top toolbar.
Im newbie to Joomla. How do I change the main menu like screen below to my customize menu?
Menu
Create your own custom menu from the backend. Login to your administrator panel.
Menus->Menu Manager->Add New Manager
Enter the menu details and you will be able to see it in the drop down. Select menu type items and assign articles, contact etc to your newly created menu.
Now under Extensions tab click on Module Manager . Now manage your custom menu to the position you want it to display. Like if you want to display your custom menu as main menu then go to main menu and assign your menu to it under basic options and the position you want it to display.

Not clear from your question that what you need to do but as per your menu image i will describe my answers.
If you need to change the position of menu then go to backend extension->Module Manager->select main menu and change position of main menu.
Also same you can change your custom menu positions.
If you need to change main menu and set custom menu instead of main menu then you need to change menu position and set position of custom menu from module manager.
Menu items will be added from the menus->select menu->add new menu items.
Not clear from your question that what you need to do but as per your menu image I will explain my answer below -
if you want to main menu to be a drop-down menu then you can use some free menu extension module of joomla like JB DropDown Menu or CK Megamenu, dropdown menu.
Is that possible to make a single article as homepage, but not connected with any menu item?
I'm using Joomla 1.7
No that is NOT technically possible - Joomla is menu driven.
But you could create a Menu Item (of type Article -> Single Article View) set it to be the default item (so it is your home page) and set the main menu module to not be shown on that page (if that is what you are trying to achieve).
The other option - is to create a new menu - for example called 'hidden'. Add your new menu item to this menu, and don't even have a module for this menu.
One or other of these options should do what you need.
In the article list, there is a flag that can be activated that says "Home Page".
That makes the article to be shown in the content area of your home page... just that.
