I  have been updating my site with the k2 component and everything is working really well apart from the category view section. The category view displays fine though when i click through to an item there is no template surrounding it. The articles still appear but in text format, the page url also seems to be odd also. 



Here is a link to that page on the site: www.nlplifechanges.com/nlp-life-changes-blog



any help would be appreciated.



Many Thanks



Andy

if anyone can understand why the templates are not showing up, please let me know. Seems rather odd

i have actually noticed that when the articles have links the them from the menu or something like that the template works as expected. without that there is not template around my articles. any ideas?

please can someone give us some feedback as to what the problem might be?

Hello,

It looks like you found a resolution for this. What did you do?

Thanks,

Josh

Hi Josh,

I believe this is a problem with the urls, when you put search engine friendly urls on it screws up some of the catagory view (or so I have found). When I disabled SEF Urls the templates were working as they should do, so i would recommend installing another extension to do this.

I use JoomSEF and the problem was solved for me.

Hope that helps.

Andy

I have the same problem, it is not related to SEF.
I have check with and without SEF url.
Problem not solved.

AH, thanks. That was my issue. All I knew was that it was something with the URL but I didn't think about that.

Thanks.

No Problem. It did take me a while to figure that out. Arasp are you using the standard joomla SEF Urls?

If this is the case, it is not going to work with K2 categories. I recommended JoomlaSEF or other extended Joomla SEF extensions. These extensions will have the updates that will allow k2 to work.

I found out that the problem occurs only in Rocket theme templates, it was ok with other templates.

So I decided to say goodbye to K2 and use the original article component of joomla.

I also use rocket themes and it did cause me a few problems. I fixed this by using the k2 template overrides, this can be downloaded from the main page where you first downloaded k2.
