Only One Slug Works For My SP Page Builder Dynamic Content Items

SP Page Builder 1 month ago

Hi,

I’m building a website with Joomla 5 + Helix Ultimate + SP Page Builder Pro.

I am using SP Page Builder’s Dynamic Content to create a custom set of “Projects”. These projects are NOT Joomla articles — they are dynamic SPPB items, each with a category:

  • Category A
  • Category B
  • Category C

I also created several listing pages with SP Page Builder that correctly filter the projects by category:

  • Listing Page A → projects from Category A
  • Listing Page B → projects from Category B
  • Listing Page C → projects from Category C

These listing pages work perfectly.

What I want to achieve

For each project, I want a detail page (a single-project page) built with SP Page Builder using Dynamic Content.

So I did this:

I created the first detail page (a SP Page Builder page pulling dynamic fields).

I duplicated it to customize it for each category:

  • Detail Page A
  • Detail Page B
  • Detail Page C

Each page is supposed to act as a dynamic template for the projects in its category.

❗️The problem

SP Page Builder only seems to use ONE slug / alias to display dynamic content details.

➡️ All projects—regardless of category—always open the same detail page. ➡️ The duplicated SP Page Builder pages are never used. ➡️ I cannot get separate URLs like:

  • /projects-a/my-project-a
  • /projects-b/my-project-b
  • /projects-c/my-project-c

It looks like SP Page Builder only supports one global dynamic template, which overrides all others.

  • I cannot find any setting in:
  • the Dynamic Content source
  • the Page Options
  • SEF / router configuration
  • menu settings

…to tell SP Page Builder:

“Use this detail layout for projects in Category A, and this one for projects in Category B.”

Does SP Page Builder allow: multiple dynamic detail pages (templates) for different categories?

routing dynamic content to different SP Page Builder pages based on category?

assigning a dynamic template depending on a field or category filter?

Or is SP Page Builder limited to a single dynamic detail template for all dynamic content?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hello Kathleen,

Sorry for the inconvenience you're experiencing. Please note that SP Page Builder's Dynamic Content feature currently supports one index page and one detail page per collection. Creating multiple detail pages for different categories within a single collection isn't supported at this time.

We understand that the ability to duplicate index or detail pages isn't working as expected, and we're actively working on a fix for a future update. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

As a workaround, you can create standard SP Page Builder pages to display listings for different categories if you need multiple index-style pages. However, individual detail pages per category are not possible.

We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Best regards
