Thanks for the help, that worked! By the way, the URL still displays the word "Flexicontent" like this:
Code:
http://www.mysite.com/component/flexicontent/item/207-title-of-article-goes-here

Is there no way to get rid of the /component/flexicontent/ part of the url? I don't mind the "/item" part of the URL.

Also, here are the instructions on how to do this so people do not have to go searching (thanks again for the help!)...
Code:
INSTRUCTIONS: 1) Open \modules\mod_aidanews\tmpl\default.php 2) Find: $link = JRoute::_(FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute($row->id, $row->catid, $row->sectionid)); 3) Replace with: $link = JRoute::_(FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute($row->id."-".$row->alias, $row->catid, $row->sectionid));

This has probably been asked before: but do you know if you can display the articles custom TAGS? You know, for instance, the keyword tags assigned to that article? So, if my article is about dogs and my keyword tags are "dogs, animals, pets" is there a way to display those with this module?

I did notice a problem using the SEF fix above...in my sitemap, my Flexicontent URLS look like this:

Code:
http://www.mysite.com/news-articles/item/103-article-alias

However, on my homepage, when clicking on the article link (as supplied by AIDANEWS), it looks like this:
Code:
http://www.mysite.com/components/flexicontent/item/103-article-alias

It is the exact same article, but google is seeing TWO different links which hurts my google page rank badly. Is there a way to get the module to display it like the XMAP's links? Plus, the AIDANEWS still doesn't look right as it actually says "components/flexicontent" in the URL instead of the name of the category like "news-article" as seen in the sitemap version.

Thanks for your help and have a good Holiday! :D

I've been playing with this module. Great functionality!

I noticed this module makes quite a few sql queries. Enabling the module (V 2.0 beta) adds another 22 queries to my home page. I know the number of queries isn't always the best indicator of performance but 22 queries seems a bit steep, especially since I may want to use several instances of this module on the same page.

Does anyone know how this module compares performance wise with other content retrieval modules?

Thanks for this very functional module!

Hello,
I tried V2.0 Beta... it's much faster than V1.2.1 but "class module suffix" (in french "suffixe module de classe") doesnt work anymore...
But with V1.2.1, it is very very slow, even in localhost.

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Hello- I recently downloaded aida news 1.2.1, which I love! My only issue is that external links in the content area become disabled in the intro text portion of my aida news mod... Is there a way to enable them? Other than this issue, I absolutely love this mod. Btw, I am new to this site so if I am posting this question the wrong area I apologize. Thanks.

Hi, I have installed AiDA News module to display related articles(I am not using Flexi Content). Everything works fine. But when you click on the article link in AiDA module, the article opens but with shorter URL

For example, actual URL for a article is
www.interiordesignpoint.in/furni ... alinauskas
when you click through AiDA news it shows just

www.interiordesignpoint.in/furniture/346

This URL is acting as a Duplicate in Google webmaster tools. Every article URL is having the same issue. Please help
I have placed the AiDA News module below the article when you open an article.
www.interiordesignpoint.in
