create a hyperlink to form instead of a BF Menu? 2 years, 6 months ago #9677

Hi, I'd like to create a link to a form. At the moment I have a menu linking to the form and works great, is there a way to create a hyperlink from an article to the form? Thanks for your time!	pochat OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 9 Karma: 0

Hi,

there are several ways. What I often do to have nice looking urls is to create a hidden menu and create the BF links there.
Then I copy the resulting link from it (like YOURDOMAIN/contact-form.html).

However, the non-seo way to create direct links is this:

YOURDOMAIN/index.php?option=com_facilefo...mp;Itemid=YOURITEMID

The itemid is important to keep your module positions intact.

Regards,
Markus

Ahh... that sounds similar to what I did. 1.- I created a Top Menu that links to the application form 2.- I have an article that explains what the form is about and has a START APPLICATION FORM text, which has a hyperlink from what the menu gave me. 3.- I replace the Top Menu link with the article form explanation. Does this sound about right? Thanks Muffin Man!!	pochat OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 9 Karma: 0

A quick question, How do you create a hidden menu? Is this just by unpublishing it? or By giving another access level? (public, registered, special) Thanks!	pochat OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 9 Karma: 0
