Home page modules showing on articles in Joomla

Tags:

joomla

I have custom HTML & other modules on homepage which have been marked to display only on homepage. I also have articles on homepage with "read more" links.

Problem is that when I click on these read more links page opens with all the homepage modules still there and article is displayed below these modules.

I have checked setting all the modules are marked to display just on homepage, yet they get displayed on articles pages too.

Please help.

Those articles become "children" of the page you are viewing, so that's why you see the modules there.

I had that problem before, it's related to Itemid I guess.

You can use Advanced module manager to assign those modules ONLY to the homepage.

EDIT:

Manual solution without using the AMM extension.

you MUST publish the category that your articles belong to in ANY joomla menu so that those articles get their own item id because they are children of that category. this is a default Joomla behavior since 1.5
