Support Forum

Every time that you post a problem, PLEASE add the Joomla and the extension's versions and revisions (for example: Joomla 3.3.6, Contact Enhanced 3.3.5), PHP version and Server's Operating System. If you only manage only one site it is easier if you edit your profile and just add that information to your signature. Don't forget to add a detailed description of the problem. If possible, write down all steps to simulate the problem.

Before submitting a new post, PLEASE make sure you are running the latest version, test in different browsers (IE, FF, Chrome,..) and clear Joomla and browser's cache after every change you make.

Also, most questions are already answered in our FAQ and in iFAQ and Contact Enhanced documentation pages.

adding custom related articles does not work

3 years 2 weeks ago #25773 by skelp
Hi,

I bought this component to add custom related articles to each article, but that specific part doesn't seem to work properly.

Could you please explain how I can add custom-related articles to an article? Every time when I add a related article and save the article, it's not saved and the input field is empty again. It seems like there's an AJAX conflict or something like that, but my knowledge about AJAX/jquery is to low to solve this.

Do I have to change some settings to make it work properly or can I use the jquery Easy plugin to make it work?

I am using Joomla 3.9.25 with php 7.3.25.

Thanks for your help!

Kind Regards,
Liesbeth Hiddema.

Dear Liesbeth,

There are two ways to display Related Articles:
1- In the article itself. See screenshot . I have just tested locally on a recent Joomla Installation and it worked properly.

2. In the Components -> Ideal Related Articles -> Articles. See screenshot .

In order to show related Articles in Joomla Content Component (front-end), please make sure the "Content - Ideal Related Articles" Plugin is enabled.

I usually recommend setting the Mode to Mixed in order to display on all your articles. See screenshot .

Since it's not working for you, I would need Administrator Access in order to try to better understand what's happening. Can you please provide Joomla Credentials and send them to me using the Support -> Contact form?

Best regards,
Douglas Machado
