Create a Custom Joomla 2.5 Module

Create a Custom Joomla 2.5 Module – Part 3

hey guys this is pot 3 and all we need to do is correct this issue if we click on a link it takes us to this axis forbidden now you can see it gets taken

the localhost / joomla which is the site we're working on and then it's heaven it's doing the HTTP localhost joomla again so it has the rest of it right it has this index PHP and all the other

parameters right so what I'm going to do is in the helper file for some reason this jui RI route is causing problems for us and I'm not sure if this would work on a remote on a regular domain and

not in local host but what we can do for this is just delete that entire Ju RI route and then the space here just close that up or you could even let's just get rid of it altogether so we got rid of

that Ju RI now I have a feeling it'll work now so if we save this and then what I'm going to do is packaged up second I'm going to package up our extension

again if I can find it yeah so this helper should be changed alright so now I'm going to just add a zip I'm going to create a zip file again

and then I'm going to replace the one on my desktop and I'm going to re-upload it I remember i showed you that upgrade instead of install in the xml file and that's why I did that so now we can just

write right over it and upload that now if we go to our home page and reload you click read more it goes to the beginners article professionals goes to the professionals

article so it's working well now we can adjust some parameters if we want would it go I think I put it in position seven yeah featured articles so let's say let's not show the intro text save it

and if we reload it's just a list of titles we can show the intro text and not the read more if we want so there's no read more what else we could meet the the article longer let's say 50 words so

now it shows 50 words for the intro text so this is a really clean module it's it's coded perfectly and a few if you can do this then you can probably do bigger and better things with with

custom modules I'll be making a custom component video soon I'm not exactly sure what the project will be probably some kind of portfolio component so make sure you subscribe and I will see you in

the next video
