Hi,

Well now that i have the pluggin installed, I thought I would give it a go. I followed the steps to install and get it running (watched the video as well). I made no changes to the default setup and created a new article and added the syntax code to that article. I then created a menu item to load that article.

Now, when the article loads, the slider loads but it loads not only with all the articles expanded but it loads the wrong articles in the category. I have to categories in my joomla setup. General, and General Services. The slider loads all the articles from both categories I'm assuming because of the common word General.

So the functionality isn't quite working. The articles are expanded, and loading more than they should due to a naming convention similarity.

Thanks for the help.

Hi

The plugin tries to match a category title to the text you enter. It is designed to be case insensitive and only require a snippet. New or inexperienced users were having problems related to category title errors including non-existant categories, multiple-categories and categories that contained the article in which they had called the plugin (this final error was crashing the server because of an infinite loop).

To make things a little easier, the plugin should now spot errors and produce a warning. The category title is also more relaxed and will find ANY content categories that match you text snippet. You could look at the ability to match more than one category as a feature... To match one category you must choose a title that is unique - in your example you would change your syntax for the plugin for search for "services". This isn't really a bug in my opinion...

The second problem you've mentioned is that the articles are all open. This is a javascript error that is something conflicting on your site. See this thread
