I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious. 

 

I'm new to K2.  I've installed it on a development site as well as the main one.  I've created a category and a couple of articles in each site and tried to display them.  I haven't copied Joomla content across since I didn't intend to convert the whole site but I did want to use K2  to manage blogging and commenting on the site.

 

The articles display if I set up the menu link to look for tags or users, but not if I set the menu link to look for categories.  This applies to both sites so it's clear that I'm missing something basic but what?

 

Thanks in advance for any help.

Are you sure that you have items in each K2 category you try to link to the menu item?

I'm certain, as I hope this image shows.

thanks

And I'm guessing that you select for the menu item to be K2->category and then you put as a category the Testing. Right?

Exactly right!

Have you tried to reinstall the K2, in case something went wrong with the installation the first time?

I just did so, using a fresh download from the K2 site. The result is the same.

On install I got one message Notice: K2 Content Elements for Joom!Fish were not copied to the related folder, because Joom!Fish was not found on your sytem.
Install Component Success

Otherwise items appear to have been installed correctly and I can see all other kinds of K2 content - I can reach the items directly, just not in the categories view.
