I got it!
However, the "COM_JEVENTS_EVENT_DETAIL_TITLE" shown a list of event layout. How can I select menu item type to show a specific event directly?

Hello,
That looks like you have the incorrect menu item... Can you take a full screen shot?

I just realised you are still on Joomla 1.5.
This feature is only available for Joomla 2.5+ I'm afraid.
You can create an external URL menu item to link to the event directly by cutting and pasting a URL from the web browser when viewing the event detail page.

Hi,
I'm using a direct menu link to the event detail page.
However if I edit the event (change the event date) the menu link doesn't work anymore.
It turn out the link to the event from this
http://www.mysite.com/blablabla/eventdetail/1/-/-.html
changes to
http://www.mysite.com/blablabla/eventdetail/2/-/-.html
and if I edit the date again it changes to
http://www.mysite.com/blablabla/eventdetail/3/-/-.html
In this way I have to re-check the link each time I edit the event..
Is there a way to have always the same link as far as I don't delete the record?
Thanks in advance!
