Hello Granados,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

I’ve checked your website and noticed that you have created multiple Article Index pages, which is not the recommended setup.

To resolve the issue, please follow these steps:

  1. Keep only one Article Index page. Remove the unnecessary Article Index pages and create regular SP Page Builder pages instead.
  2. Use the Collection addon. On each regular page, add the Collection addon, select the article source, and design the layout according to your needs.
  3. Create only one Article Details page. Use this page as the common layout for displaying individual articles.
  4. Link the normal articles page to the Article Details page. Configure the Collection addon Link so that clicking an article opens the article details using the shared details page.
  5. Update your menu links. Once you have completed the changes, relink your menu items to the correct pages.

This structure should help avoid conflicts between multiple Article Index pages and ensure that your menu items open the intended pages.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

Thank you!

Hi, Ziaul .

I have multiple Article Index pages since I have created one item for each one of diferent categories (using filter category equals XXX). I don´t undestand how to show diferents categories with the same sp index page. My detail page is not a sp page is the normal joomla page.

I have also seen that in the blue bottom "+add" (in pages backend) the creation of new index or detailed pages are disabled.

You can create one Article Index page and organize your articles into separate sections using the Collection addon with filtering options.

Alternatively, you can create separate regular pages and add the Collection addon to each page, filtering the articles by a specific category. This way, you can display different article categories on different pages according to your requirements.

Please note that only one Article Index page should be used. Any additional Article Index pages should be deleted.

Thank you!
