Question [Merged topic] Kunena Notice: Menu item /forum (Itemid=nnn) does not have Kunena Menu

Hello,

Do you have tried to create a kunena menu, look in kunena configuration panel ?

I have read other posts regarding this issue along with the recommended threads. I apologize as it is a bit over my head and I think I need to ask directly.

I just upgraded to 1.6 and have this error when I am signed in as registered user. I do remember that I had to do some kind of hack in order for Kunena to open Forum Categories instead of Recent Topics. It is still opening to Forum Categories after the upgrade.

I use YOOTheme templates which use the YOOmenus. I can not find any documentation as to if they support aliases.

I have attached the Kunena configuration below:

Database collation check: The collation of your table fields are correct

Legacy mode: Enabled | Joomla! SEF: Enabled | Joomla! SEF rewrite: Enabled | FTP layer: Disabled |

This message contains confidential information

htaccess: Exists | PHP environment: Max execution time: 30 seconds | Max execution memory: 128M | Max file upload: 20M

Kunena version detailled: Installed version: 1.6.0 | Build: 3620 | Version name: Spika | Kunena detailled configuration:

Warning: Spoiler!

This issue is solved (in 1.6.0). The solution just isn't properly explained. That's the difference.

We're sorry that the documentation we've written on the subject isn't easy enough to understand. We're sorry that a lot of people seem to be having difficulty understanding just how easy it is to establish a Kunena menu.

Our solution to this problem to to provide a video tutorial that shows people how to setup their menus when other methods don't seem to be working. It takes time - a few hours to script and produce a couple of video tutorials - but in actual fact it's a lot quicker to use video than to review the existing documentation and explain the process with words and images.

We're therefore asking people to be patient for a little longer and give us a bit more time to give you our solution. Thanks.

Could you be more specific, I do not see a kunena menu option.

OK, so check it out:
This issue has been going on for awhile with no solid help from the devs. Personally, I love Kunena and I know they're trying to work it out... so not faulting you guys!

But this has to be solved. In the meantime, the work-around is actually very simple. This isn't the desired solution, but it works:
Just simply navigate to your main forum page using the quick navigation box and hit "Go". Now you're at the forum's frontpage and you should definitely see the menu. Copy the url.
Now just go in and create an external link menu item and paste in the forum's main page url. Name it your forum and... there ya go!

This is what i've been doing for now and honestly, there's really no issue that I see. I mean, generally speaking, a menu item is just a link... so direct that link to exactly where you want it to go, this case being the forum main page via the actual full url rather than an internal id link. Problem solved until the devs fix it.

There's an even easier way! When I get this video tutorial done you'll be amazed at just how simple it really is. The trouble is that there are still a lot of messages coming in, every day, and we're trying to answer those as best as we can.

When I'm clear of answering all of those messages I'll show you. The basic information is already written in the Wiki ... it's just a little complicated trying to explain it.

These are the relevant docs that explain things:
Mootools 1.2.4
Customised menus
Troubleshooting Kunena Menu

You may also need to ensure that use the option Kunena Forum » Create Menu.

One of the things that the Create Menu feature does, is to create a module (see image below):


Without the module position kunenamenu you've got nowhere for the menu to appear. These are just a few hints to go on with until we can publish something better and easier to follow.
