I am using Joomla 1.5.22. I have installed K2 and imported Joomla contents. Now I can create items and categories within K2.

I see no K2 Menu system. Does that mean I should continue to use Joomla Menu Manager?

I looked through Simon Says where he talks about creating menu link and shows the following which I cannot find in my K2 v2.4.12 installation

 

This will show up when you add a menu item through the Joomla menu manager and then select type K2.

Joomla 1.5.22 K2 v2.14.12

The following images show that when I add a menu item through the Joomla Menu Manager there is no option to select K2

 

Got to menus then main menu (or whatever menu you want to add the link to), click on new and the k2 options will show up.  Menu Manager is for adding new types of menus, not menu items.  You want to add the k2 menu items.

Did you look at the screen-shot 5 attached above? Probably not!

Therefore, instead of attaching, now I am embedding it here, so that you don't need to take trouble to open it.

I hope it's clearly visible now. Is the following screen not for adding menu items?

If you add your menu items from a different screen can you reproduce a screen-shot, please?

Hi.What you are doing in your screenshots is adding a new menu not a new menu ITEM. This is basic Joomla functionality and is not tied to K2 so just follow the instructions here: docs.joomla.org/Adding_a_new_menu_item

 

Then you will see all the diff. K2 options Simon refers to in his first screenshot.

Got your point. Thanks.

Unbelievable.

Maanoirakhit, I've done the same thing myself numerous times.

 

While we're on the topic of Menus, I am wanting to add a bunch of menu items very quickly for rapid prototyping. Any advice as to which extension I should use? I understand 'Masscontent" and "Quickcontent" will allow me to add items and categories quickly (which I can then import over to K2) but I don't know of an extension that allows you to add MENU items quickly.

 

Then step two would be to make modules which show these menu items. Any advice on an extension which makes a module at the same time a menu item is made (or vice versa?) I know I've seen at least one, but cannot recall the name.

Not sure if this works with K2 yet but are you looking for something like this? www.nonumber.nl/extensions/addtomenu
