For the life of me, I cannot get the Home menu item to show in the main menu of the site. The content shows as it should, but I just cannot get the Home link to appear in the menu. I have gone through and checked that I have unique aliases set for each menu item. I've thrown out all the trashed menu items on the site. Any help is much appreciated!

Hi

Do you have a link for the site?

There is no text in the home menu item, so it looks like the option to display the title is turned off in the menu item edit screen.

The active class also always seems to be on the homepage item. Are you using an seo plugin such as sh404sef that changes the way urls work?

No URL modifying plugins installed. I've toyed with settings of all sorts in the menu item. Showing title does nothing, but that's not what I want regardless. I want the menu item to show, not its title on the page content.

Odd - I'm assuming if you switch to a default Joomla template you get the same?

No. If I switch to Protostar, and publish the Menu's module to the Navigation position, Home shows up like it should. Check it out when you get a chance - I've left Protostar as the default.

Can you open a ticket and we will take a look

Thanks

OK, new ticket created. Thank you for following up!

Thanks

And just answered

Thank you - just for anyone else who happens on this thread in the future with a similar issue - the setting in the menu item's Zen Menu tab for Show Item Title needed to be set to "Yes."

Thanks Eric
