How can I access the same homepage from different menus? - menu

I have a menu item "Home" in my main menu AND in my top menu. When I click on the "Home" in the top menu, I would like it to direct me to the "Home" referenced in the main menu.
How do I do this?

I found the answer!
Have one of the menu items as the default menu item. For the other menu item choose the menu type to be Alias (Menu Link) and choose the menu item that is the default menu item.

Not sure if there is something special in Joomla to configure this, but href="/home.html" will always to the same place. Relative links do not work this way however, so from
/folder1/ a link to "home.html" would not go to the same place as:
/folder2/ which contains a page with a link to "home.html"
adding the preceeding slash makes it relative to the site rather than to the current folder.
Hope this helps, if not let me know what I could do to point you in a better direction.

Bitrix24 CRM menu Label text changes

I have self hosted bitrix24 and would like to change CRM header as below. Deals -> Projects , Companies - > Deals, Contacts -> Companies. Please if someone done it need helpful.
In most cases you should not rename interface items in such way because it will confuse users! It's not just names, they imply a business logic.
But if you still want to change menu settings in Bitrix (i.e. menu items order) use following instructions:
Login as admin user.
Turn on edit mode as
Place mouse cursor on top of main menu. Wait a half a second for floating settings pane and then select "Edit menu" button:
In opened Edit menu dialog you can change titles and links of menu items, change their order and even delete:

Create menus, sub menus and actions

I have been looking for a way to create a menu item, and some sub-menus relative to that menu.
I want this to be the menu the users see when they log in, instead of the "Messaging" Menu.
Basically:
I want a menu on the top of the page, and it has to be the first one.
This menu needs to be the menu users see when they login.
On the left bar of OpenERP, i just want to add a few external links.
On the body of the page, i just want to write some welcoming text.
How do i do this? Do i need to create a new module? Or is it much simpler?
Thanks!
You must create a new module see here.
And on this module, you must create an XML file to define new menu entries like this :
and if you need a sub-menu (under My Menu):

Joomla menu assignment not working for search page

I have a few modules assigned only for Home page but by some reason they all showing on search page. I don't need any modules showing on search page - how to disable it?
You likely need to make a menu item for the search page. Without a menu item, many pages will revert to the homepage link as the active menu item, which will cause this to happen.
If you haven't already, make a hidden menu for your site and then add the menu item for the search results page to that menu. This way it doesn't affect your main menu.
So first go Menus -> Menu Manager -> Add New Menu. Give it a name basically. (I usually call mine "Hidden".) Then go into that menu and add a menu item like normal for the Search Result type.

How to remove left side panel on component page?

I am using Joomla 1.6.5 with default theme "Beez2 - Default". I have created a top menu item with type as external link which has link 'index.php?option=com_sample'. When i click on this menu item i can see the output of the component 'sample'.
But on the left side there are few menus like User Menu, About Joomla, This Site. I want to remove that whole vertical panel so that i can use more space for my sample component.
I tried to search in administrator panel and on google but cant find anything to remove left panel.
How can i remove that panel? what code should i write in sample component file to make it not display the left panel..
Please guide me.... thanks in advance.!!
You need to set the menu not to appear when your component is the one used. Remove the show in all pages setting in the menu module.

joomla article list with descriptions

On the Joomla frontpage i want to have this kind of menu
Every item has a title and description and links to some article.
This list must be available for modification by administrator.
Is it possible to do it? I know how to modify menu to look like this, but standart menu doesn't support descriptions.
One option is to make it like so:
Make ordenery menus using Joomla! menu manager
Then make modules for every menu item and add menu link title and description
Make all menu link title on the module linked to the orginal menus you made on the first step
Unpublish menu module and publish these modules you just made into to the same place where was menu module
