Articles?
Milo
Hello,
I'm trying to understand how SP PB overrides the articles with integration.
I created two articles - one with basic Joomla editor, one with SPPB but clicked from within the control panel of Joomla. Both are not visible in SPPB.
Of course, when I create an article in SPPB - it's not visible in Joomla control panel.
I think I did it somehow so that they from the Joomla panel were visible on the list of SPPB articles? What can be done with those three types of articles... any of them can't be visible in SPPB/Joomla backend?
Could you explain? Docs don't have necessary info on this or I can't find it.

Accepted AnswerHi Milo.
Articles with SPPB Mode (integration) they are still Articles. So they are visible in Joomla Article Manager.
But I would think twice if you really need to display content like that. Becuase Joomla also on the front-end has to load twice code (almost two components).

Accepted AnswerTip!
If you need SPPB content only on few articles. Sometimes it's better to use SPPB module inside Article content. As you know, it's just one line of shortcode. If in all, Article Integration is recommended.

Accepted AnswerOK so you are saying - choose full one way:
- either just SPPB articles, categories
- only Joomla backend (but without integration - just put SPPB elements inside).

Accepted AnswerSPPB can be used only inside Articles, it does not work inside Category description, and won't be.
Q: The main question what is purpose of using SPPB Inside Articles instead of Pages and "native" articles.
