Latest comment link is loading K2-article on frontpage

[NorShine]

I'm using Jcomments together with K2. I've set it all up correctly and it works very nice showing the latest comments. However! The link in the Latest Comments module which will send users to the comments and K2-article is NOT working properly.

When I press the link, I'm not sent to the article itself, as I should. Instead the article is loaded in the content area of the front page.

Try it out yourself at my site: http://norshine.no. First open an article the normal way by chosing one at the frontpage (just scroll down a bit). Then go back to the frontpage and to the Latest Comments, which is located to the right where the module says "Siste kommentarer" (Norwegian) and press one of the comment links.

See my problem? How can I fix this? I've searched the PHP and found this code, which I believe has something to do with it:

Code:

function getContentLink(&$row)
{
global $mainframe, $Itemid;

if (JCOMMENTS_JVERSION == '1.5') {
require_once (JPATH_ROOT.DS.'components'.DS.'com_content'.DS.'helpers'.DS.'route.php');
$link = JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($row->slug, $row->catslug, $row->sectionid)) . '#comments';
} else {
$compat = $mainframe->getCfg('itemid_compat');

if ( $compat == null ) {
// Joomla 1.0.12 or below
if ( $Itemid && $Itemid != 99999999 ) {
$_Itemid = $Itemid;
} else {
$_Itemid = $mainframe->getItemid( $row->id );
}
} else if ( (int) $compat > 0 && (int) $compat <= 11) {
// Joomla 1.0.13 or higher and Joomla 1.0.11 compability
$_Itemid = $mainframe->getItemid( $row->id, 0, 0  );
} else {
// Joomla 1.0.13 or higher and new Itemid algoritm
$_Itemid = $Itemid;
}

$link = sefRelToAbs( 'index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id='. $row->id .'&amp;Itemid='. $_Itemid );
}
return $link;
}

Thanks in advance if someone wants to help me

The code you've found is used for com_content's links not for K2. The K2 links are generated in com_k2.plugin.php file.

Thanks for the answer! But how can I edit the code so the link will send me to the k2-article itself, and NOT load the article in my frontpage in the main content area?

I have the same problem

The link in the Latest Comments module which will send users to the comments and K2-article is NOT working properly.

When I press the link, I'm not sent to the article itself, as I should. Instead the article is loaded in the content area of the front page.

Show modules, shows me home (.com.ar/inicio) instead of the category name!

Example:

Correct: http://www.playersonline.com.ar/noticias/item/102-los-grandes-retailers-brit%C3%A1nicos-aseguran-que-steam-est%C3%A1-matando-el-mercado-de-pc

Show me wrong jcomments latest: http://www.playersonline.com.ar/inicio/item/102-los-grandes-retailers-brit%C3%A1nicos-aseguran-que-steam-est%C3%A1-matando-el-mercado-de-pc#comment-76

You have to be using some SEF extension, or Joomla SEF. I had such problems with search module and redirect to search component too.

Best way is to use advanced module manager:
http://www.nonumber.nl/extensions/advancedmodulemanager

Withit you can controle your modules as you want.

[BBC]

I mean.....with this manager you make frontpage modules (you don´t want to show with K2 Items) to only Home (frontpage)

And Joomla and SEF respect that.

Then it is useful Module Manager for everything else. You can tex show one module in only one K2 Item. Nowhere else at the site.

my last comment link not working well for k2 aswell.
the k2 item link is
http://sitename.com/menuname/submenuname/submenuname/item/itemid-itemname.html
but when you click last comment mod link, it lead u to
http://sitename.com/menuname/item/itemid-itemname.html

so the k2 item shows as 'full screen' and none mod will load.

Any one help??

I'm in the same boat...  Comments work and display perfectly in my k2 articles only issue is when clicking on the link in the latest comments module.  I get sent to the wrong area... 

example:

The module takes me to this url: http://www.yakangler.com/about-us/item/1015-custom-car-top-rack#comment-2768

But it should be taking me to this url: http://www.yakangler.com/articles/how-to/kayaking/item/1015-custom-car-top-rack

I'm only using the built in Joomla SEF.  Anyone fix this?
