I'm employing K2-subtemplates for various K2 categories. All that works fine, yet there is something odd happening on the homepage:

- The modules do not apply the style from the sub-template CSS (only on homepage, on other pages it works just fine, also for the same category)

- After clicking on a tag or an archive from the K2-tools modules the modules are not displayed anymore on the following page, seems that the item-ID is not respected here.

 

No matter if sh404SEF is activated or not, the modules on the home page are screwed up.

 

Any ideas how to fix this?

 

In regards to your first issue it sounds like K2.css is not being loaded on the front page. I had a similar issue and found that my theme (rockettheme) only loaded K2.css on K2 component pages.  Either use Firefox with Firebug to look at the css files that are loaded on your frontpage or use "view source" in IE and search for K2.css.

Thanks for your answer, but I guess there is more to that issue: the homepage IS a K2 component page of type "category" and the category view employs the K2 sub-template correctly. So the sub-template is loaded ion the homepage, but not for the K2-modules.On other category pages the sub-template is loaded for the modules just fine.It's also not a matter of that particular sub-template as everything works well for the "homepage" as soon as I assign some other page as default.

Actually I just found a workaround by addding the category to the URL of the homepage in the helper.php file
