    • In my article, there is a link to another article which is not publish to the menu, thus, the url is not available. So how do I link to it?

      create a hidden menu and add the non menu page to the hidden menu.

    • Hi Tim and Henning,

      I have done this, but how do I know the URL of this article since the menu is hidden? I can't just use the direct link of index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=102, because I need the breadcrumb to show the menu hierarchy properly as well.

      Also, when I rename the menu, the URL still reflect the old menu name. How do I get the URL to refresh?

      Lastly, is it possible to have the parent or root menu not clickable? Only the child menu have links to article?

      btw, Henning, sorry for double post as I realize that this is not a template related question, thus I repost to the general forum instead.
