You need to create another menu item of type "Menu Item Alias". In the alias field put "xyz". There is parameter on right side "Menu Item", here you need to select the menu item 2012-07-07/xyz.
Do not show the newly created menu. And whenever you will click on 2012-07-07/xyz it will show you the alias xyz of newly created menu.

I have created 5 menu items with a menu from Joomla admin panel. Out of 5, 4 menu item should be redirected to the same domain and the 5th one should redirect to another domain url.
How to do that in Joomla admin panel? I am totally new to Joomla. The correct guidance is appreciable.
You can use External Link while Menu creation. So you need to follow below steps.
Go to Menu Manager.
Select New Menu.
Now you will see the Menu Item Type field , Click on Select Button.
Here You need to choose Click on System Link.
Now it will open this options, i.e Menu Heading, Menu Item Alias, Separator, URL.
Choose URL option.
Now you need to give external link in the field Link textbox.
Hope it will solve your problem :)
I need help for Wordpress
if parent menu page data is empty in Menu then I want it to display its first sub menu data in wordpress
please help how this can be done
I am not sure that you would like my idea or not but I just want to suggest you about the custom links.
STEP 1 First need to create a page suppose ABC and then add the content into ABC page.
STEP 2 After that go to your appearance menu section and create the custom link, now into the URL tab add the URL of your ABC page like this http://localhost:808/wp/abc/ and gave a name to the menu Test
STEP 3 Then add the ABC as a submenu of Test custom menu

i am working with Joomla 2.5 and K2, in a template i bought.
1st.
i got a an accordion module that display several items into the main page, when i click on any of its elements it redirects me to: http://uxmalrecordscom.ipower.com/index.php/component/k2/item/452-the-dream-master which is correct. (.../index.php/component/k2/item/...)
2nd.
I set this same module to appear into another page called Discography, and when i click in any of the accordion elements it sends me to: http://uxmalrecordscom.ipower.com/index.php/discography/item/452-the-dream-master this URL is different than the first one and is causing me issues to display the content of the Item. (.../index.php/discography/item/...)
My querstion is how can i change the URL for the second case the "Read more" links to avoid display the content of the item in the same page or main menu seccion? or how to make the 2nd to have this kind of URL (.../index.php/component/k2/item/...) instad of (.../index.php/discography/item/...)
Note: Its the same module used on 2 different pages.
Thanks!
The way to solve this is to create a new Main Menu item called "Digital" then select as menu type = "K2 categories" and select the "Digital" category, this will cause all the K2 items listed under "Digital" displays on a different URL so now the url is (.../index.php/digital/item/...) instad of (.../index.php/discography/item/...) and is working awesome!
Hope this can help someone, this solved the problem to me.
I have a situation where we have a "user menu" on the top of the page.This menu is shown on every page with a module.Now in order to set up breadcrumbs properly I need to have a menu item which is published but not visible to any type of user whether guest or registered..
Is it possible in Joomla to have a menu item published and hidden yet accesible via URL??
You will have to write a different module which had most of the functionality of your custom module. In the new module you can change the code in a way so that you dont show the required menu.
I think you should create a menu, setup user groups, view level. Create a menu item, and try to access via menu alis - link.
Good luck
Yes, Menu's are independent of the modules that display them, it's possible to create a menu and not create a menu module, how, depends on the version of Joomla you are using.
That's why there are so hits when you Google — "Joomla Hidden Menu" There is even an article on Joomla Doc's on "Menus" that discusses hidden menus briefly.
So, the normal approach is to create a new Menu with a name like "Hidden" or "Shortcuts" and have the menu items created in that menu, then don't assign a menu module for it.
On my Homepage I have 2 menus, for the top main menu initial element is "HOME". Now on my footer menu I wanted to start with the same menu item so i checked "Main Menu" from administrator and here it is mentioned like this->
HOME (Alias: home)
Articles » Featured Articles
So i created a new Featured article as "home" and it is successfully created. Now when attaching this to my footer menu I am getting this error -
Warning: Save failed with the following error: Another menu item has the same alias in Root. Root is the top level parent
Let me know what I am doing wrong, and how do I create Home menu item that do the same stuff, i.e on click return to the main site(http://localhost/mysite) currently main menu item is doing that and I want to do the same from the footer menu Home item as well but it is not creating successfully :( Help me plz
PS- Even "About Us" article that is on my main menu is not including at my footer menu with the same error.
If you want to use same menu item into multiple places like main-menu and footer. So you can use menu type called Menu Item Alias. To do this, create a new menu then select the menu type to Menu Item Alias as shown below:
Joomla 2.5
Joomla 3.0
Expand system link tab and select menu item alias
Then add the name you want and then from right side select the menu item that you want to show on this menu item like shown here:
Joomla 2.5
Joomla 3.0
Then save it. Hope this may help you.
