LISE - can't select detail page if its a sub-page

[johnboyuk1]

I'm using the latest version of LISE, in the options tab for the 'Detail Page' option, the list is only showing me pages that have no children... its not letting me select a page that is a sub page under a section heading - is this a bug?

The reason im having to set this is because I'm having trouble with the module when Pretty URLs is enabled ... if I set the detail page from the tag eg

Code: Select all

{LISEmod detailpage="pagename}

Its being ignored and detail pages are being output to the homepage

You first have to select a parent page, then a new dropdown will appear for the child page (and repeat if necessary)

Thats what I'm saying - I dont get the option of selecting the parent... it's only showing me pages that have no children. I'm sure I've seen the process you describe in the past which is why im wondering if it's a bug in this version. Else what else would cause the pages not to show?

If the parent is a section header, it won't show in the dropdown (nor will its children). I have created a BR: http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/bug/view/12722

Not sure if moving the page first, selecting it in prefs, then moving it back is a suitable workaround as it may reset next time the options are saved. Probably better to specify it in the tag or use a module hint until a fix is released.

Thanks for confirming it is a bug DIGI3!

I'll have to work around it by creating a duplicate page hidden from menu for now I think!

I actually seem to be having this problem in the core too ... if you try content type - internal page link for a new page, this list of destination page options doesnt include any pages that have children

Can someone confirm this bug?

[DIGI3]

I can confirm that you can't select children of section headers as the destination of an internal page link. I can't confirm that you can't select *any* pages with children.

Thanks .. have moved to a new question in 'core' forum, which you have also responded to

That’s a bit counterintuitive. Would be nice if you could see the entire page tree or have a combobox where you can start typing the title and it’ll show matches.
