I'm working on a site in Joomla. I have my main menu and from that i have created the home page as a "Section Blog Layout". I want to display article titles and hide the section title, currently i can only manage to show/hide the article title, I cannot remove the section title.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Steph
i was having the same problem as you. I was not able to find the answer anywhere because i was searching for "hide section title in blog layout". Turns out that it is actually considered the page title and not "section titled".
Anyways, to fix this you have to go to open up the editor for the menu where you posted this blog layout menu item. On the right had side of the page, where you see all the parameter setting, there should be a tab called "Parameters (system). There you have the option Show Page Tittle Yes or No, select No and you'll be set.
Hope this helped. This little problem was driving me nuts!
I can't remember if there is an option under the menu item for Section Blog layout. If not, can you do a simple template override and remove the heading?
If you're not sure how to proceed, let me know.

I am currently updating a web page for a company who are still using the very old Joomla 1. When creating a new menu item, I have found that an article is needed in order to create the page.
My problem is the fact that there is no option to alter the location on the page of the article. For modules, this is not a problem as there is an option which can be used to choose the specific location. For articles there is no such option, which has been of grave annoyance as they simply crop up here, there and everywhere!
If it is of any assistance the theme which is being used is contained here: http://demo.rockettheme.com/?template=versatility4

I dont think this has changed in any version of Joomla, but it has been so long since I have looked at a Joomla 1 installation, I could be way off. Additionally, I dont have one to look at for reference.
So here goes my scientific wild &^#%! guess. When you create a menu from the menu manager in Joomla, you have to select a "menu item type". This could be a single article layout, category layout, blog layout, or link to another installed component, ect... I think its one of the first options in the menu item manager.
Then once you select "single article" there should be a dialog box that allows you to select or manually enter the article you would like to display for that menu item. Hope this helps!
Open up your templates index.php file and look for the following code...
<jdoc:include type="component" />
This is the call to the "main component" in your case would be the content component. You can move this anywhere within index.php and your article will display there
I have an article which is included in a page with anchor tag. It is not associated with any menu. My problem is when I visit that page , it is not showing article title as page title. Please help me. Im using joomla 2.5

I think this will help you.
Create a menu items as innermenu. Admin->Menus->Menu Manager->Add New Menu.
In the following Menu Item, you have to create one menu with the and include the article to the following menu.
Then copy the url of the article and save the menu process.After that an itemid is generated for the menu.Include the itemid with the and run the url, then the page title will be displayed.
I have downloaded this template to my joomla 2.5.6 and I'm trying to create a horizontal menu. I have created menu and module that should be displaying that menu. I have set position to user3 (as I've read that is the default position for horizontal menu), but nothing showed up.
The only positions I can see my menu on are "search" and "top-panel".
Can anybody please guide me how to find what may cause the problem?
EDIT: I have renamed the menu to "menu1" and so did with "menu type" and it has showed up. Why? Where's any logic?
Thank you !
Make sure you have set on which pages to activate the menu:
You can find these settings in the module manager > your menu
check the positions using ?tp=1 at the end of your url
log in to your joomla backend.
go to article manager and create an article..
go to menu manager and create a new menu, select your article which will me mostly a single article if you have created others then choose others, such as featured article or others,
then on the same page on required setting choose the article you have created.
save and close..
now go to
module manager,
go to the menu or content menu or horizontal menu,
down below there will be menu assignment,
choose the menu and show to it all pages..
hope this will help you..
Thanks

I've put the HTML draft of the theme so far, with minor CSS edits.
Currently I have all the block posts and everything else that's essential to a tumblr theme but I can't seem to get the {HasPages} block to work properly.
I've tested it on a different tumblr, also. There are pages created and I already have provided some basic CSS for it just in case. But there isn't anything showing up.
Has anyone has this problem and if so, is there a solution I'm missing? The code to display the pages is included.
{block:HasPages}
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
{block:Pages}<li>{Label}</li>{/block:Pages}
</ul>
{/block:HasPages}
Also, is this a valid web masters' question. I'm not sure.
I just had this issue: a link to a page I created didn't show up.
I solved this by checking off "Show a Link to this Page" in the Page options. To find this:
Go to tumblr.com.
In the top navigator click the gear. This is where the settings are.
On the side, click on the blog you want to customize.
A customize button should show up beside the name "Theme". Click on this button.
Now your blog will show up with a Customize panel. In the Customize panel there should be a Pages section. Click the Edit button beside the page and a window will pop up.
You can find the "Show a Link to this Page" option in this window.
Let me know if you need any clarification.
As far as I can see your code is right. Have you clicked the 'show a link to this page' checkbox, which is at the bottom of the page edit popup? I bet that's it... :)
I have also been having this problem. However, everything works correctly on my actual page, even though the theme editor does not appear to be aware of the block on my custom theme, nor does the theme preview seem to be aware of the pages tagged to show.
Have you tried saving your theme and checking the links on the live page?
I'm working on a site in Joomla! and on the homepage, at the top of the article, it comes up with a h1 of the website name. The pagesource says (Note it's not the article title.)
Any idea how to get rid of it?
Thanks,
Steph
You can set this h1 tag not to display via the Parameters - System section of your Menu Item Manager screen in administrator ... this page has a nice depiction of the steps.
It's so simple
Just do the following :
Login to the Joomla Administrator Interface
Go to the Menu Manager
Select your Menu
Select your Menu Item (Home Menu)
On the right hand, Click Parameters (System)—> and in the *Show Page Title—->*Just Select No.
That's all.
This is not the desired solution, since many people, (including myself) actually need to be able to Set/Override the page title (That Appears in the Browser’s Title bar), and setting Page Title to no here will also remove the functionality to Configure the Browser title (which is important for SEO among other things).
Anyway, I have searched and not been able to find a fully correct solution via CMS or PHP Code. The closest solution which is not fully perfect, but unlikely to cause significant (if any) negative effect on your site is through Javascript (Example is JQuery).
jQuery(document).ready( function($) {
$(‘.componentheading’).empty();
});
This can also be done is JS with no JQuery. When I find a better method of doing this I’ll let you know.This should actually be done by removing output from a template file.I don’t know which one yet. When I do, I’ll post it…
When setting the page title not to show in the menu item as stated in other answers, this will not stop the text entered in the page title box being used as the browser title, it will just stop it being shown in the page.
Using javascript to remove it is not a good idea.
1. It will only work for browsers with javascript enabled
2. Search engine spiders will still see it. As the component heading for articles is 'articles' by default it will see all your pages with the same h1 tag.
Just turn it off in the menu item and enter your browser title in the text box above.
