Hi drogers,

The problem is occurring because the menu on the right ("Browse Inventory") is not putting the correct "Itemid" value on the links. In fact it's not putting any Itemid at all.

Joomla needs the Itemid to work out which page to place modules onto. If it doesn't have one in a link, then typically it places all the modules assigned to "all" pages, plus the ones from the front page, onto that page, even if it's not the real front page.

To prevent this, you could use MetaMod to check several things about the page that is appearing, to see if it should be displayed or not.

The simplest thing is just to check for the Itemid.

To do that, you need to know what the Itemid is for your front page. You can find this by going to Menus->Main Menu, and looking at the list of menu items. The one with the "star" on it is your default one (the front page). In the right column of the menu item manager you can see the Itemid of that Home menu item. Unless you have changed this, the default value is "1".

So, in your MetaMod you can do as follows:

if ($Itemid == 1) return XXX;
// replace XXX with the module id of your slideshow module.

Hope that helps,
Stephen
