{link} no longer works when an article is assigned to the menu item

Florian Weyrich's Avatar Florian Weyrich
Hello.
To link articles in an overview, we use articles anywhere. We get the article-id, the title of the article and set it as a link:
{article id="5446"}{link}{title}{/link}{/article}

Since an update this no longer works. As soon as we assign the article to a menu item, the link throws a 404. In addition, we can no longer publish the menu item once it has been deactivated. On the live site we use Joomla 5.2.1, PHP 8.3.13, articles anywhere v16.1.0. I have set the tag syntax to {...} in each case.

Everything works great on our test site. There we use Joomla 5.1.0, PHP 8.2.24, articles anywhere v16.05.
Can you help us find the error?

Thank you and best regards

Articles Anywhere asks Joomla to generate the url for the article. So lloks like something wrong with Joomla itself.

Can you give me (super) admin and (s)ftp access so I can take a look?
And tell me on what url I can see/reproduce the issue.

So what should the url be?
What is the menu item to that article (ID/name)?
Do you have a page where there is a link to that menu item directly?

Hello Peter,
this is the URL to the article:
help12.bp-event-software.com/de/administ...ung-webapp&catid=269

The URL should be like this article:
help12.bp-event-software.com/de/administ...apps/intranet-webapp

The article (ID:5454, "Ausschilderung WebApp") must be placed in the ‘Topmenu DE’. The menu item has already been prepared - ID:12547, ‘Ausschilderung WebApp’. It can currently no longer be published.

Thank you for your help

It can currently no longer be published.
I see that Joomla is not letting it be published. This has nothing to do with Articles Anywhere though...

Even if we create a new menu item and add the post, the link that was set with articles anywhere no longer works. A 404 is then displayed.

Your menu item is pointing to article 3255, while the article you are placing via Articles Anywhere is 5446.

It looks like you are getting you article Ids messed up.
