Joomla and CiviCRM with separate databases

I have it running, but I can't seem to select any (event, contribute, etc.) items in basic parameters when creating a menu item (under menu manager in joomla).
Any help would be appreciated this is a bit urgent. Thanks in advance



installed Joomla 1.5.15 and civiCRM 3.0.2 and it seems to break linking in menu manager. I have tried two separate installs and same thing used alt version. Is this a bug in 3.0.2?

u will need to modify the xml files and the queriees in:

components/com_civicrm/views/ (like: components/com_civicrm/views/Profiles/tmpl/view.xml )

to account for the civicrm tables being in a separate db

I have done this but No success. Can you give an example of a query for one of the xml files? This is what I put for all files I found

line 18 for views/Eventstmpl/default.xml
<param name="id" type="sql" default="10" label="Select an Event" query="SELECT id,title FROM DatabaseName.civicrm_event WHERE is_active = 1 AND is_online_registration = 1 ORDER BY title" key_field="id" value_field="title" />
still does not work

we have not tried it with multiple databases and hence cannot help much more out here

if you figure it out, please post your solution so others can benefit

also if u r in the NY area, you might want to consider attending the Joomla Dev Camp (dec 5-6) and help improve CiviCRM on Joomla. We'll also be there on monday :)

thanx
