Read more link in joomla 2.5.7 - joomla

I have a problem with the read more link in joomla 2.5.7. After insert it, when I click on the link I can see just the following lines to the Read more link and not the full article, why?.
Thanks so much and this is the link: http://www.dasphotonics.com/apps/joomla/en/technological-capabilities/technologies.

Your problem is that Show intro text is set to Hide in the article options instead of 'use global' or 'show'. The proper way to add Readmore is this described here.
Also consider updating your joomla version from 2.5.7 to the current.

How to show the plugins in the page in joomla

I have installed the plugin simple image gallery module in joomla. But i cannot figure out how to show the plugin in the site page, as menu item. Anyone could help me?
Thank you.
Try this,
If that is module then:
create an article,
also create a menu and assign that article to the menu system,
then inside your article content load the module with their position like this:
{loadposition your_mod_psoition}
where "your_mod_position" is the module position. Make sure you have content load plugin enabled.
For more information check last section of this article.
If it's Plugin it may have short code for embedding to the page, so you can use that inside your article.
Hope its helps..
First of all, what Plugin are you exactly using? There are a view called simple image gallery. Please add a link.
To show the gallery I suppose the plugin has some kind of syntax to do that. In most cases you can find the syntax you have to use in the plugin manager. Backend: Extensions > Plugin Manager.
Then pick a article that you can see in the frontend and put the syntax in there according to the syntax of the plugin.

"same article alias" error in joomla when editing translated (joomfish) article in the frontend

joomla version 2.5.8
joomfish version 2.5.0
I have created an article and translated it with joomfish.
I login with the user that created that article and i'm trying to edit it.
In english(basic language) i can edit it successfully.
In greek(translation) i get an error "another article in the category exists with the same alias" when i try to edit the article.
Even when i put the translation in another category i am able to edit it once, and the new version is saved again into the category of the original article!!!so i can't edit it for a second time...
I could find nothing in forums and google generally...
Do i have to switch to the core-joomla-multilingual-system and uninstall joomfish? does it allow same alias in multiple articles?
Any other suggestions?
I had similar bug. This 'cause Joom!Fish 2.5 works another way then old versions. It keeps both articles (original and translated) in article manager, so articles anyway can't be stored with same aliases.
What I did: go to /libraries/joomfish/contentelement/contentelements/
You can see *.xml files stored here. Every of this files is corresponding for different elements. For example open content.xml and find this code:
<treatment>
<target>native</target>
<tableclass>Content</tableclass>
<publishedfield>state</publishedfield>
<translationObjectModel file="joomfish.translatable.translationobject.content">TranslationObjectContent</translationObjectModel>
<jformModel>ContentJForm</jformModel>
</treatment>
and remove this.
After you do this Joom!Fish stops duplicate contents, and you'll get many translations with same alias!
P.S.: You may need to remove duplicate articles in Article Manager.

MOO FAQ component in joomla is not working

we have purchased the "moo faq" component.. but it is not working form our side... we have installed the component as the component package consists of the plugins and the module... we have made a section and under that section we have made a category.. under that same section and the category we have made an article but the content of the article is not showing.. we have made a menu and linked it to the category... the front-end link is only showing the "expand" and "Collapse" link but not showing the content of the article.. this is the link where you can see the problem "http://www.musiclibrary.fi/en/for-now/faqtest".. you can see this link under the "For now" link in the menu which will come after logged in... the login details is UN==samitbose PW==samitbose2011 .. we are using joomla version 1.5.23 and MooFaq version is 1.5.5.4... Please have a look on this point .. any help will be greatly appreciated.. thanks in advance...
Looks like you are still struggling with this.
If so, I'd check the following:
The FAQ category is published
The FAQ question itself is published
The menu links to the same category that contains the question
The category/question are no set to 'special' access level
My initial thought on reading the question was that this would be a clash with Mootools/jQuery or perhaps Mootools in the component and the Mootools upgrade plugin. I don't see anything in the page to point to this though.
If none of the above points you in the right direction - chase the developers, especially as this is a paid extension.

Joomla 1.6 Auto Hyperlink Image to full Article

I'm trying to have the first image on an article automatically link to the full article (similar to how wordpress 3.x works). This should work on Frontpage as well as Blog layout.
Basically I'm looking for a plugin like http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-display/articles-summary/7233 but is compatible with Joomla 1.6. Any help would be much appreciated thanks.
Have you tried to use CM Auto Read More for Joomla 1.6/1.7?
