Hi all,

just have a problem and can't find anything. But this should be done already:

My menu:

Home (root)
- Home (link)
- Service (folder)
- - Service 1 (article)
- - Service 2 (article)
- - Service 3 (article)

In the top navigation I have Home and Service. Clicking on Service should directly load the first sub-item, so Service 1. (So no own content) Unfortunately I don't find any config in the admin panel. Is there any INI setting for this?

Thanks a lot!

Phil

Has nobody done this before? Please, give me a hint.

URL Translation might be an easy solution if it is only for your top navigation.

You can set it from the admin interface, in the setup panel.

I already tried this, but this means to overwrite the default alias, which seems to be not working. I tried:

folder alias: /service
my url translation try: /service -> /service/service1

Is it possible to give own alias a higher priority than ezPublish default owns?

Ok after taking a look at the ezPublish internals, I changed:

ORDER BY forward_to_id ASC

to

ORDER BY forward_to_id DESC

. So redirects will be preferred to internal links. Is this the right way to go?
