Dynamic Article Detail Page Not Used In SP Page Builder 6.8.0
J
joergbeuster
I am using Joomla 5 with SP Page Builder Pro 6.8.0.
I created a Dynamic Article Index Page and a Dynamic Article Detail Page.
Configuration:
Article Index Page slug: /articles Article Detail Page slug: /articles/:slug Both pages are published On the Article Index Page, the article title is a Dynamic Text element Field Source: Title Enable Dynamic Link is disabled Link type is set to Page Selected page: Blog Detail Global setting Choose Article Details Page Layout is set to Use default Dynamic Article Details layout
The Dynamic Article Detail Page itself works correctly in the SP Page Builder preview. It contains dynamic article content, a sidebar and a header image.
However, in the frontend, the title link generated by SP Page Builder still points to the normal Joomla com_content article route.
With SEF URLs enabled, the generated link is:
https://neu.joergspors-consulting.de/blog-artikel/15-wie-digital-sind-ihre-prozesse
With SEF URLs disabled, the generated link is:
So SP Page Builder is clearly generating a com_content article URL instead of routing the article to the selected Dynamic Article Detail Page.
I also tested direct access to the expected detail route:
/articles/wie-digital-sind-ihre-prozesse
This returns a 404 error.
I already verified the following:
SP Page Builder version is 6.8.0 Dynamic Article Detail Page is published Dynamic Article Index Page is published Link configuration is Page → Blog Detail Enable Dynamic Link is OFF Articles are normal Joomla articles, not SP Page Builder article layouts Joomla template override html/com_content/article/default.php was temporarily disabled for testing Joomla SEF routing was temporarily disabled for testing Joomla and SP Page Builder caches were cleared
The issue can therefore be reproduced even without SEF routing and without the template article override.
Expected behavior:
Clicking an article title on the Dynamic Article Index Page should open the selected Dynamic Article Detail Page and resolve the article alias through /articles/:slug.
Actual behavior:
SP Page Builder generates a normal Joomla com_content article link and the Dynamic Article Detail Page is never used.
Could you please confirm whether this is a known issue in SP Page Builder 6.8.0 and provide a fix or patch for the Dynamic Article routing?
Thank you.

Accepted AnswerHello,
After the fix was applied, I noticed a new problem with character encoding on the dynamic product detail pages. German special characters are no longer displaying correctly in the page title and the menu.
For example:
"Fördermittel" is displayed as "Fördermittel". "ÜBER MICH" is displayed as "ÃœBER MICH".
This occurs only on the dynamic product detail page; the same menu and content display correctly on other pages.
Could you please check if the fix affects the UTF-8 encoding or the response headers for the dynamic product detail page route?
Your administrator access remains active.
Thank you.
