editing database after adding a menuitem...

Hi,

1. It's a great component! Thanks a lot!
2. It works perfect: I specify a table, make a link, and it's perfect.

HOWEVER

3. I then decide to edit the display template, or the key fields (the ones you choose at the beginning), I modify what I want, click save and then when I go to front-end it screwed :(
To be precise: I get the template, but no entries are displayed (limit set to default 20). No db connection errors, no php errors, nothing. Just as if the DB was empty... Now - WHY?
Editing the database entry doesn't influence it's ID in the jos_joodb table. However it does somehow change the link - how? Where? Looks like the template gets somehow ruined by WYSIWYG Editor...
Any help?

Hi

It happens the same to me. When I edit the database in joomla, even if I don't change anything but I save it, the front end shows nothing. I printed form phpmyadmin the fields before and after the saving and the field tpl_list changes a bit.

Maybe it's because these changes that it doesn't work?

Does anybody knows why the editor changes the field?

Thanks

Hi again

I have not much an idea of what I've done but IT WORKS!!!

The problem is with the {joodb loop} statement that when you edit the editor moves it and screws everything up.
So you have to add this lines twice:
<tr>
<td valign="top">{joodb loop}</td>
</tr>
one just after the "<!-- Loop here... dont remo..."
and the other before "<tr>
<td align="center"><br />
<h3>{joodb nodata}</h3>"


Did I explain myself?


Good luck
