Joomla: news in blog

This might be a really simple question and I apologise if it has been asked before but i haven't found an answer.
My Homepage list only news (blog)...(no menu left, no menu right in sidebar)
When an user clicks on article it show the article in the same homepage.
What i would like to have is
When an user click articles in the home page it will be redirecting to another menu (news) where it shows a menu with news list items on the left sidebar and the content of the article clicked in the content.
Is that Possible ?
You must create a custom module with left side bar and right content.In left sidebar put the query to populate news title from the selected category.On right display introtext or full text from #_content table based on article id.
You will have to create a hidden menu to show the news in inner page. Go to menu manager and create a new menu with title Hidden Menu and menu type hidden. Inside that menu add new menu item of type article category blog.select the category from where these front page articles come .Save it and check the front end of the site.

Joomla Menu display in different website parts

I'm using Joomla 1.5 version and a strange behaviour came up regarding menus displaying.
In my default menu I have a menu item of "Front Page Blog Layout" type to display some news in my home page.
Everything was fine when I had only a menu assign for my whole website. The module that display the menu had the option "All" selected in "Menu Assignment" group.
But, when I choose the items for the menu to e displayed through "Select Menu Item(s)", the menu is not displayed when I try to see a news detail in the home page, even if I have all the items selected. It only work with "All" option selected.
Is there any difference between option "All" and select all items with the option "Select Menu Item(s)" selected?
I need this behaviour because I need several menus in my website that are displayed in different parts. Without this behaviour I can't use different menus across my website :( because some pages stay without a menu.
Any hint, workaround?
there's a difference between checking "All" and marking all items in "Select Menu Item(s)".
In first case module is always displayed and in second one module checks for Itemid value. If theres no Itemid value set or it doesn't match the selected items - module is not displayed.
My suggestion is to create a new menu in menu manager, which is not displayed in any module, and assign pages to it. So every page you want a custom display would have it's own Itemid.
Im glad i could help. If you assign article for a category, and make a category link in menu or hidden menu, i think it should display menu for all articles in chosen category.

Magento - Link attributes with sub-categories or include attribute value in navigation

I'm creating a video game ecommerce store and I need to have the navigation structured so that the navigation bar contains all the major consoles. When someone hovers over one of the console navigation links, a drop down menu appears with each genre option. For example, once you hover over Xbox 360, a drop down menu with Action, Adventure, etc. will show up.
My first thought is to create sub-categories in each major category that represent each genre. There would also be a custom attribute field for genre. I would then have to manually export the product database and fill it in for each product.
Is there an easier way to do this that I don't know about? Is it possible to have attributes as the drop-down menu links in the navigation bar?
One thing I've noticed in the Manage Attributes section is the option to Use in Layered Navigation. As far as I can tell, this links the attribute in the sidebar and not the main navigation bar.
For reference, my website is at http://allyourga.me
There is no default functionality to do what you are describing. The default Magento way to accomplish this is via subcategories. You are correct about Layered Navigation, that is a sidebar feature inside the catalog.
You could do some custom coding around showing the attributes in the dropdown menu, but the dropdown links lead to categories anyway, so you'd need to create those regardless. Another approach would be a cronjob that created the necessary categories for the products and placed them into those categories on command. You'll need to add a "console" attribute to make this work as well.
Hope that helps!
Thanks,
Joe

Magento Main menu custom links

In magento the main menu is working based on category list. Here I want the categories as well as I want to add two more links which are not category.
The links should leads to
1. CMS page link
2. Contact us link
If I add any category its become category page how can I insert my own links into category main navigation bar.
Although not free Advanced Menu can do this for you.
