Ok hi everyone.

im looking for a way to link the title to the category just joomla would do, when i publish a k2 category module i would like the title to link back to that category.

i tried with - Custom link title from within the module with no success im probally just missing something right?

or is there a way to hack it to make it work ? please

bump! anybody ?

Hi. Have you enabled the category setting in the module? Once you do that K2 will display the category of the item linked.

enable what exactly

what do you mean ? Module Manager: Module K2 content


i tried playing with these option bellow before without any result
Custom link at the bottom
Custom link title
Custom link URL
Or select a Joomla! menu item

Each item has it's own category with it's own link. If you have all the items from the same category then you can use:

ok ..

i have look inside this file modules/mod_k2_content/tmpl/Default/default.php
i have the same line... im not sure i understand what you mean

all my item have their own category. if you can take a look in my signature the main page in my website i use k2 to display 6 news article of each category, but the category title dont link to the category?
still havent figure out to do this.

bump !

Can someone out there help me out with this issue ? please.

Lefteris Kavadas ? can u help me with this please??

is there a nother forum for k2 help or this is it ?

The default K2 content module links item categories by default. So if you do not see the categories linked check that you have not any template overrides that are missing the link code.

thank for trying to help me...

i still havent figure how to do this ill have a look at my template and let the community know when i find the awnser..

im using artisteer template!

Hi sicop,

too bad you didn't receive the solution. It's not that difficult, really. Although my solution is not a nice one one and I'd hope there is (or someday will be) a better one.

I simply hid the title in the module and then added this to
\templates\joostrap\html\mod_k2_content\Default\default.php

Mine is a News category, and I copied the URL from a link that I created in an article. If I now change anything about the category, the link will break, of course ... Also, the <a> tags should not be around the <h3> tags, but in my case it's necessary to avoid difficulties with the styling.
