I have a site that only shows me 4 choice on which page(s) to display modules including the ALL choice. On all my other sites, I can see the full list of Page(s) to display modules.

Has anyone else had this problem? I'm running 1.0.7 and I'm not using the Frontpage, but rather a static page created with the Static Component.

I will try and upload screenshots.

Thanks,

Eric

can we give this one another shot? I'm surprised no one has had this problem yet.

Thanks...

I'm another one with the same problem.

It occured to me jaust a couple of hrs ago.
I'm checking the php file, the database query seems ok but the problem must be somewhere here. check the file modules.php and check the db query and the your database. there must be the problem.

I'll let you know if something occurs

We had the same problem. We had the topmost main menu item defined as the frontpage component, and we were only seeing 4 pages (I think it was All and 3 pages) in the selection box. When we changed the topmost menu item to something else, all the pages came back. I don't know why.

Yeah, I'm also having this problem - i have a static page as my default "home" page..

Modules are no longer so appealing if you can't specify where they appear or not!

has anyone found a solution to this problem?

take care

I did that but nothing happend

I don't know

I installed a linux and php mysql and I work off-line in a LAN in a clean configuration and when I finish I'll publish my site.

anyway, If you find something else let me know

Thanx

I have a solution for this problem - at least it works for me!

- It's a modification to a MyMenu fix (www.jasonmurphy.net)
For some reason mambo doesn't want to let you use URLs as menu items for assigning modules.

--------------------------------------------------------------
In administrator/modules.php change line 225 where it says:
--------------------------------------------------------------
. "\nWHERE menutype = 'mainmenu' AND type != 'url' AND type != 'separator'"

change to

. "\nWHERE menutype != 'usermenu' AND type != 'separator'"

---------------------------------------------------------------

Basically Jason stopped it insisting on mainmenu, and i have simply removed the != URL restriction.

now all your static page/URL menu items can have modules assigned to them!!

For me this fixed the problem.

hope this helps someone else

take care

Guys,
The best place to search for these kinds of answers really is forum.mamboserver.com since that is the support forum, and these types of questions have already been address on there.

Also, you will want to upgrade from 1.0.7 since there are security vulnerabilities with that version.

I might start visiting that site again. They didn't really have an easy-to-spot forum like Mambers' "How-Do-I", and it seemed a lot of topics were scattered in too many places. At the time when I posted this question I did a hard search on both sites and found NOTHING relating to it. Maybe I missed it. Either of these sites should have some sort of 'solved' section that lists typical problems and the answers to them. Kinda like a Q & A / FAQ / Troubleshooting guide, but filtered down so it's nothing but solved problems.

All my sites are upgraded to 1.0.9. When I posted this back in May, 1.0.7 was the latest out. I did upgrade to 1.0.9 in hopes it would fix the problem, but it didn't. Out of 20-30 Mambo sites I've made, this was the only that had this particular problem.

Again, thanks go to zloh for solving this problem back in May. like I said, I just got around to applying the solution today, but I wanted to thank zhol and let others know this solution worked.
