Merged [Merged topic] How do I restore my Kunena menu?

HI

I have an issue with missing menuitems at the top.
How can i get that on my site again?

G'day, Brian, and welcome to Kunena.

The answer to your frequently-asked question is to use the FAQs menu tab, located in the menu at the top of the forum here, as read the tips given in How do I restore my Kunena menu? as well as other advice given in this topic. I hope this helps.

Hi!

I am having a strange problem.
Using Kunena 1.7.2, Joomla 2.5.1 and Danish language files for both.

I have changed the Kunena menu (translated items to Danish).

When using Danish frontend language, the "New topic" (Nyt emne) button only reload the current page (no editor opens), but when switching frontend language to English, the button (still translated) DOES work, and the editor opens. I have made sure the alias for the menu items match the menu item text (otherwise I got a 404 ...).
I'm using the default template.

I cannot find answers to problems (other than another person found another forum - which is a bad solution! - as I have put a lot of work in translating the language files into Joomla 1.6 format...)

/Lars

[SOLUTION]
DO NOT tamper with the language setting for the individual menu items. I had set "Kunena Forum" and "Index" to only work for Danish. After resetting to "All", suddenly the editor opens when clicking "Nyt emne" (New Topic).
Strange behaviour, if you ask me - but I'm happy now, that the editor works

I installed it but I did not get the big long list of green OKs. I first go about 15 to 20 Green OKs the it hesitated for several seconds then I got the blue joomla installed successfully. I went throy the control panel but did not change anything. I checked all of the tabs to see what was there but did not change anything. i finally clicked finish but I cannot find it. I did a search for Kunena menues and there are 3. I checked those and found nothing to show where it would be shown on the web site. I cannot find anything that I can link to my web site menu. Should there be a module? Should there be an Artical? I have gone through everthing on the Kunena content drop-down menu and cannot find where to link it to my web site menu. HELP!

Hello carlbeck and welcome to Kunena.org. I see that you are a new member to the Community.

I am going to give you a list of things to check for:

1. Log into your backend and check under Components and look for Kunena

2. If you have Kunena you need to create a Menu Item in your main menu by going to your Menu Manager , create New , Menu Type=Kunena and choose Index, name it Forums and save.

After you do this you should see your Menu Link in the main menu and you can access your forums from the front end.

If you need additional help don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks. I found "Category index" of several, and linked it to that. That got me started. However it don’t work. When I click on my Forum menu I see what I expected. It looks like a Forum. HOWEVER: Anything I click on in the FORUM gives me a RED WARNING: Using direct link to Kunena. No suitable menue item found.

Something I don't understand: From my joomla "control panel", "Menus", "Kunena Menu", there are no menus there. I expected to see a list of several menus.

Can you please post your forums configuration report carlbeck?

I think this is what you ask for:

Ok Mr. Carlbeck please do this.

Go to your backend, go to your Kunena's control panel and recreate your menu. You don't have a menu created right now and that is what is giving you that error.

OK I found an item in Kunens control panel. Clicked on it and got this: 500 - An error has occurred. Another menu item has the same alias in Root. Root is the top level parent

I mentioned this is an early post: On joomla control panel I click in Menues: I see: "main Menu and Kunena menue. When I click on Kunena menu: There are no menus shown. I deleated the Kunens menu and went back to the Kunens control panel and clicked "Create Menu" again and got the same error as above: 500 error
