SOLVED - Only two categories functional?

by **sandvelder** » Mon Nov 14, 2011 7:50 am

Hi
I am using your JEvents 2.0.10. I am on Joomla 1.7, and I create my own Artisteer templates.
I love your events calender component, it seems great so far. I ignored the DEFAULT category, and created three of my own: "Meetings", "Outreach" & "TV Schedule". The first two work perfectly, but the last one is unavailable on the front-end, albeit published on the back-end.
I have unpublished your DEFAULT category in case there was a number limit on the categories, but it also did not work.
Am I doing something wrong here?

Thank you & Regards

For your frontend menu item did you restrict this to specific categories?

No, not as far as I know. I only started using this component yesterday, and created all three categories the same. But the third (coloured blue)is some inactive. I have been through it from all sides, and cannot see anything wrong. I even tried rebuilding the database, which worked for another component, but not JEvents.

I presume you created a menu item for JEvents - what parameters did you set for this?

Does this new category have any events in it?

Hi Geraint
You are right, it was my parameters which were only restricted to two, and not all three categories. Thank you, a typical ID-10-T problem on my side!
