I am adding a Link-URL in the main menu (Menu manager/New/Link-url) and inserting an URL (e.g. http://www.nba.com) everythings working well and the menu point is appearing.
But if you want to click it, joomla is adding a part like 'http://www.nba.com/&ItemId=9'.

What would i have to fix the template from assigning an itemid?

I am using Siteground100.

Hello,

You should enable the SEF functionality of your Joomla application. If you want to have more customization options, you can consider installing additional SEF extension.

I have seo enabled and this did not help the initial problem. I still cant get the mainmenu button to go to www.helpme-tech.com/forums using and url-link. There is still a problem with the template as I am unable to add the url link, which shouldn't have a itemid.


** The mainmenu link works fine, but the button at the top of the page creates the itemid still?
