Errors with Layouts, URL Rewriting, Data Picker 12 Jun 2013 13:17 #7450

Hi I am not sure if this is an issue with J-Cook, Joomla or my configuration/server.

I have Joomla! setup with "Search Engine Friendly" URLs and "URL rewriting". I am attempting to add a modal data picker to the front end of my website. It works fine when I turn these options off.

I created a modal layout for my view. I can view the layout by going to:
index.php?option=com_chronos&view=studies&layout=modal

With SEF and rewriting on, this URL is rewritten as:
/studies/modal

Visiting this URL produces an Error 500:
500 - View not found [name, type, prefix]: modal, html, chronosView

It appears that it is losing the "studies" portion when parsing the URL.

I get the same error when trying
/studies/default
, which is the name of my default list view.

I only get this error on list views. Attempting to visit
/studies/study/view
and
/studies/study/edit
and the respective layouts are displayed as expected.

As I was writing this, I just discovered more information that may be helpful. I have a menu option setup for "Studies" - myurl.com/studies is setup to go to the default studies view. If i visit /studies/studies/default - or /studies/studies/modal - my layouts are displayed as expected.

However - Joomla! is not creating these links from the modal data picker. It creates the link /studies/modal not /studies/studies/modal.

Any ideas?

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
