Choosing menu item type to "Category Blog,List All Categories, and Category List" would result all subcategories link not direct to all articles of sub-categories.
But I want to show directly the all articles of sub-categories.
main-category
sub-categories
cat-1
article
article
.......
cat-2
article
article
.......
cat-3
article
article
.......
Now, how to show all articles of main-category?
In Menu Item Settings: Blog Layout -> Choose Include Subcategories "ALL"
UPDATE
FYI: This behavior can be set also globally for all Blog Layout Menu Items.
In Article Manager Options -> Blog / Featured Layouts Tab -> Include Subcategories.
first, find the column params in your database table ###_extensions which row name is com_content.
update the inner value in the JSON string, "show_subcategory_content":0 to "show_subcategory_content":1 that mean for 1 level subcategory support.
This is a global configuration.
If you just want one menu item to support that, find the item in table ###_menu and add "show_subcategory_content":1 in params which works.

I have a rather long and complicated category-struktur up to 5 levels of subcategories.
It is all by standard added to product-html-title.
I would like it only to show catalog, level1 and level2 subcategories.
any suggestion how to fix this?
Thanks a lot.
Log into the Admin Pannel, and go to the "Catalog -> Manage Product" menu
From there select the item that you wish to update.
On the left side you will see a navigation menu with “Meta Information”.
The very first field is Meta Title. This is the field that you need to update to change the title of the Product Page to a SEO or alternative value.
I'm trying to build a site with multiple categories and sub-categories in Joomla. The structure looks like this:
category 1
category 2
- category 3
- category 4
category 5
- category 6
- category 7
...
Each category has some articles.
What I want to do is create a navigation menu from these categories, so category 1,2,5 become top level links in the menu, while 3,4,6,7 become sub links in the corresponding dropdown list. (Update)And the articles under a category become sub links after the categories.
I've tried a few options:
Module Articles Category: It lays out all articles in a flat list without categories, not good
Module Articles Categories: It lays out all the sub-categories, but no articles
Menu item - List all categories: It gives the right result, but in a page accessed by clicking that menu item.
Menu item - single article: It's totally static and time consuming.
I'm wondering if there's a way of generating an ordinary normal navigation menu, like the ones you see in Amazon or ebay?
Why don't you create a menu structure that is similar to your category structure. So:
Menu 1 corresponds to category 1
Menu 2 corresponds to category 2
Menu 2.1 etc
You can then link each menu item through a category blog type menu item to the appropriate category. You can then configure how the articles should be displayed (multi-column, intro etc).
I am working with different modules in Joomla (2.5) in order to display a variety of things. Right now I am trying to show the featured article of a specific category.
For example: I have three different pages, all showing articles specified by its own category.
Bikes
Gears
Media
Each of these pages has a range of article (lets says 20 each). Each of these sets of articles has a featured article. So there is a featured article for Bikes, Gears and Media.
My problem is trying to get this featured article to display at the top of each main page. I've tried using the Articles by Category module and I've looked into the Article - Newsflash module as well as looking at the code of the front page where a "featured article" typically appears.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a module I may be able to use?
No module needed. Here are two ways you can accomplish this:
In the Blog Layout Options for your Category Blog menu item, set Article Order to Featured Articles Order.
Alternatively, make a new parent category for each existing category and put the featured article in the parent. Set your blog page to show the parent category and the subcategories. Hide the subcategory headings on the page with menu item settings and/or CSS.
I am able to show items in subcategories in a menu view in Joomla (finally - it was no easy task.)
But now it is only showing the first 4 of each subcategory.
Technically they are all secondary - and it should be showing all of them because I set max secondary on the subcategories to 100.
What am I doing wrong?
If I understand your question right below should work for you.
It's under Blog Layout Options in the Edit Menu Item panel. I think I had confused it with a similar option under Category Options, "Subcategory Levels" where the tip says "The number of subcategory levels to display."

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.
