Hi xclntdesign,

Hmmm... if sh404SEF is breaking the assignment between menu items and templates, then it sounds like sh404SEF is messing up the Itemid assignments. This is not good. This will also break the same functionality within MetaTemplate (at least, the "menu item" selection box).

I don't know if there's anything you can do about the underlying problem (lack of Itemids), but sh404SEF should *not* be causing this problem. (i.e. if they are causing it then they should fix it!).

On the other hand, there will be ways to work around this with MetaTemplate, so never fear, we'll get it working for you.

For a start, can you please switch on MetaTemplate Debug mode (which is in the Preferences panel on the MetaTemplate Rule Chain page), pull up the page on the front end that should have switched templates, and post the Debug results onto the forum here? I'll be interested to see what it says... we'll see where we can go from there.

Best regards,
Stephen

Oh, that's a relief! I'm glad you found the underlying problem.

Best regards,
Stephen
