With FrontpagePlus you can have a frontpage for specific sections and categories 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. 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. Note: FrontpagePlus was initially developed by Peter van Westen (www.nonumber.nl). GeoXeo will continue development and support Please do not use the reviews to post support issues. Use my forum for that.
