7 Problem solving
Some of the common problems when installing, managing and using Exposé can be found
here. If this doesn’t solve your problem, try to search in the forum. Please verify them
before posting a new topic on the forum at http://www.gotgtek.com/forum. Good luck, and
please let us know, when opening a post, if your problem got solved !
7.1 Installation
7.1.1
Can’t install
Check if all Joomla! settings are green in System > System info.
Especially SAFE_MODE needs to be off. This will disable the unique
owner issue when trying to access php files.
7.1.2
Add Exposé on the frontpage
This trick applies to other components as well. All you need to do is to make the
component the first published item in your mainmenu.
1. Login to the Administrator backend
2. Goto: Menu -> Main Menu
3. Select the "Expose"-component-link, or create one:
1. Click on the "New" icon
2. Select Component and click Next on top
3. You will reach the page called Add Menu Item :: Component. Fill the following
values to the form:
Name: Expose
Component: Expose
and leave the other options to default value
4. Click the Save icon
Once that is done, move the "Expose" item all the way to the top, replacing the "Home"
menu.
7.1.3
Why does Expose uses AC_RunActiveContent.js
Expose.html.php requires the code in AC_RunActiveContent.js to run. Using this
Javascript file prevents the Flash movie from requiring a click before it becomes active in
Internet Explorer. This script has been prepared by Adobe itselves. See
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/articles/devletter.html for more information about this
script.
