Configuration Steps

Overview

These configuration steps need to be done in order for the component to work correctly.

Items Link

Link which does not point to any

category or address

Latest Link which displays latest added listings
  • Listing details may not be accessible
  • This link is being used to display search results, so if the alias is latest than site URL for the search results will be http://domain.com/latest
Items Link - Category

Links for each of the category.

A separate menu can be created with all the categories created.

Menu with all categories
  • Listing details may not be accessible
  • Individual menu settings can't be applied

Joomla / Directory Groups

Membership Plans are based on the Joomla Groups therefore before creating any of the Membership plans - corresponding Joomla groups needs to be created. The main group for the component needs to be called JomDirectory. Each of the plans needs to be placed under that JomDirectory parent group e.g. 

JomDirectory

  • Free
  • Basic
  • Silver
  • Gold

Permissions

It is important to set the right permissions for the components: Comdev and Directory, in order for the users to access the Front Admin. Otherwise, Users won't be able to access the Front Admin (Permissions Denied) or get 500 Error when trying to upload the images.

An example below shows access for the Registered Group. Same settings should be applied for each group that should have access to the Front Admin.
