Article routing in News Pro Particle

Hi,

I have a problem with the routing of the News Pro particle.
In the home page where I have assigned a different layout, I set the article ID's to display and I have a menu item for them.
When I click on the link of the article instead going to the SEO url it takes me to "/component/content/article/19-category/68-emak?Itemid=101"

I updated to Joomla 3.8.1, latest gantry (5.4.18) and Headlines 1.4.0 but the problem still remains.

Any ideas on that ?

Thank you

    Sorry about that.

    The Particle is the Top News.
    The News Pro works fine.

    Hi Filippos,

    You said "I set the article ID's to display and I have a menu item for them".
    But it seems that you do not have a Menu Item for those articles.
    I know that you think you have, but it really seems that you don't.
    Not having a Menu Item of type "Category Blog" or "Single Article" is the only possible reason why you have your URLs like /component/content/article/19-category/68-emak?Itemid=101.

    Just create a Menu Item of type "Category Blog" for the category of the problematic articles and the issue will be gone.
    For more details, please have a look at this discussion and make sure that you watch the video that I recorded there (watch it in Fullscreen and FullHD for better quality). It shows everything in great details.

    Our particles have nothing to do with the routing.
    The routing and the URLs are determined by the CMS (Joomla) and the way you have configured it.

    Hi Ivo,

    You are so right. I thought that just setting a menu item to the article that was enough. But you are right, is not. Now that I have one for the category works fine.

    Thank you for your help.
