DLM Download Manager - homepage {title} appearing

Post by RobM »

For some reason it shows the {title} of my homepage at the top of every page of this module. How do I prevent this? I checked the template for this module, however the first element in the template occurs after the {title}.

I tried using the other Download Manager, however was disappointed I could not get categories listed on separate pages.

Thank you!

Thanks for using DLM :)

Hm... your problem sounds strange - could you give me a link to the page to examine this issue? Or at least a screenshot and the HTML-Code of the page  :)

Thank you dc2 for your help.

Encase anyone else has the problem, it was due to using url rewrite (pretty urls), the following information was provided by dc2:

Modules in CMS Made Simple either are embedded to the page the {cms_module...}-tag is inserted (if you use normal URLs) or to a unique page, identified with the page-ID (when Pretty-URLs are in usage).

So the best would be, you create a new page named e.g. "downloads" and put {cms_module module="DLM"} as its content.

After doing this you submit the page and instantly edit it again.
You have to look in your browsers' adress-bar and find
Quote
&content_id=xxx&page=
the xxx is the page-ID.
This ID has to be used as DLMs returnid (DLM > settings > misc > returnid).

You can find that ID by just hovering the page name in content > pages also, it appears for me in the status bar of my browser...

Right, that does it too :)

In the future I think of a more intuitive way to set the returnid (e.g. a DropDown with all existing pages).

RobM briefly mentioned an issue that I am having, I need to have the separate categories for the download manager displayed on seperate pages. Is there anyway to do this?

Scratch that, I figured it out. I just used this smarty tag - {cms_module module='DownloadManager' alias='your-category-alias'}.
