Duplicated contact

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

Hi!
When you go in any subpage of my site, and you click on "Contacts", a Zentools2 module published as sidebar2, appears the contact page, but appears again even sidebar2 of contacts, which is a repetition and which should disappears.
When you click on "Contacts" the link is generated automatically by Joomla, and is:

www.operedigitali.com/component/contact/contact/4-uncategorised/4

How to make to disappear the sidebar2 module when its "contact" is displayed?
Thanks!

Hi

Do you have a menu link for this page?

It could be the itemid issue

I'd try creating a menu link for the page on a hidden menu if there isn't an existing link

Hi!
I don't have a menu link for this page.
How to create a menu link for this page?
I tryed to create a menu like "external link" and to unassign the module sidebar2 to this menu, but it doesn't work. Is it right?
Thanks!

Create a new menu called Hidden menu

Create a contact link type for the page

Don't create a menu module

Assign as required the module you don't want to display

No. I have 3.5.1 version of Joomla.
The menu item "contatti" of main menu already display a page dedicated to that single contact of sidebar2 zentools2 module.

Hi!

No, there aren't errors in database.
The link of menu "contatti" (contacts) is:

www.operedigitali.com/contatti/contatti

instead, the link of sidebar2 zentools module is:

www.operedigitali.com/component/contact/contact/4-uncategorised/4

The first link shows the contact correctly, one time only. Instead, the second link displays the contact two times as you can see in initial screenshot of this thread.

Cheers!

Resolved!
In Zentools2 module panel, in tab called "Content", I have setted Link behavior as "manual", and I've inserted the right link of two, that wich displays the contact one time only. This works well!
Maybe was a "Friendly url" problem?
Thanks anyway!

Hi!
When I click on contact menu, the contact page is displayed correctly, and with only one instance of the contact, viz without sidebar-2.
However, Google Search console report anyway this wrong page presence:

www.operedigitali.com/component/contact/contact/4-uncategorised/4

This page should no longer exist, and is not linked from nowhere.
How can I delete this page definitively from Joomla?
Thanks!

Hi

Do you have a search map component in the site?

Is the url listed?
