Front Folio in Grid3

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Struggling on this developing site using the Grid3 Front Folio:
www.sedinaz.org/dev2/

Of the (9) grid placeholders, (4) of them should be working (content still being developed for the other 5).

This is the only one working:
Education Outreach Center - which goes to a menu item and a category blog page:
www.sedinaz.org/dev2/index.php/education-outreach?id=8
CATEGORY is 8

Image Name: Educational+Outreach+Center-Teaching+the+next+generation-8-163.jpg


Here is an example of one I thought should be working, but it doesn't:
Dollars4Dreams - which needs to go to this single ARTICLE:
www.sedinaz.org/dev2/index.php/business-services/14-dollars4dreams
article ID is 14
I named the image: Dollars4Dreams-Micro+Loans-14-115.jpg


I just want to be able to click on the gird image and go to EITHER a category blog page OR a single article.

I read in the Front Folio module the explanations given by the mouse-over for File name delimiter and the File name separator character, but I am not making proper sense of it.

Can anyone provide guidance on how this should work?
Would be much appreciated,

Have you tried external links as an alternative?

I realized the numbers I 'forgot" where they came from - they are the MENU ID's.

After I created the Dollars4Dreams grid image, I UNPUBLISHED the Dollars4Dreams main menu link - so it stopped working.

I Published it - and now that image's link is working, taking me directly to the article, like I wanted.

However, I do not want that Dollars4Dreams menu item published.

SO, should I just move it to an unpublished MENU I have going, called Item-ID Fix?

I am on Joomla 3.1.5.
T3 plugin 2.0.1

Very unfortunate to loose the random feature. At least my full homepage grid WORKS now.

Right you may see some odd behaviour using that plugin version as the templaet doesn't support it

if so you will need to downgrade to the version available from the template download page
