Joomla Template Overrides Ignored When itemid in URL

question on template overrides.

I have created several custom categories, and have duplicated the category 'default.php' and named it 'video.php' and just added a piece of text to check it. Now if I got to the page via the menu, it adds an itemid to the URL and that causes the override NOT to work, if I remove the itemID then it works...?

Thank you.

Solution

  • See this: Joomla custom Template Override not working

    Note the part about alternatelayout.xml

    Then this: http://docs.joomla.org/Layout_Overrides_in_Joomla_2.5

    Everything is documented well.
