With FrontpagePlus you can have a frontpage for specific sections and categories.

If you use FrontpagePlus, please post a rating and a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Description

The 'Show on frontpage' option Joomla offers, is quite limited. This is because it has effect on all the frontpages you use in your site. That results in usually only using frontpage for the home page and section / category blogs for other overview pages. Only with the blogs have other limits.

With FrontpagePlus you can have a frontpage for specific sections and categories

This means you can show only the frontpage items for a specific section/category. This opens up a lot of possibilities to use the frontpage option for not only your home page.

Once installed you have an extra menu item type. If you make a new menu item, you can find the FrontpagePlus type under Internal link >> Articles.


Note:
FrontpagePlus uses the core frontpage files to generate the output. If you use a template that has it's own frontpage output, FrontpagePlus wil NOT use that. It might do in the future, but not at the moment.

Installing

The FrontpagePlus package installs/updates all necessary extensions (components, module, plugins). The plugins will be published after install, so you won't have to do that by hand.

The package makes use of a special installer. This checks to see if it needs to install the extension(s) or update them. So you can just run this package through the Joomla installer without having to uninstall the older version.

You might experience problems during install for certain setups. In that case you can install the extension(s) manually. Please read the INSTALL.txt in the package...

If you run into any problems, please report this on the forum or let me know via the contact form.
