Widget in Joomla 1.7, civicrm 4.1.2 still going the administrator back end.
April 20, 2012, 11:51:07 am
I see that this was a bug in earlier versions and supposedly fixed. However, the contribute link in the Widget  of my 4.1.x civicrm goes to the administrator backend. I can not figure out how to change it. I tried both 4.1.1. and 4.2.2, using Joomla 1.7.

Any help please?

thanks,

Seems like this bug got re-introduced when we switched from flash to javascript for the widget. I've committed a fix which will be part of 4.1.3 here: http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-10075

However, you can fix your site quite easily (2 options):
1. Just edit the "code snippet" for the widget that you get from Manage Contribution Pages > Configure > Widget before pasting it into the page where you want to display the widget. Remove /administrator from the button URL in the code snippet (search for "crm-contribute-button-wrapper" and you'll find the URL).

2. Apply the 1 line fix to the template which formats the code snippet (explained in the issue tracker issue linked above).

Thanks Dave,
Of course step number 1 worked. However, I made the 1 line change to the template but still get the error link to administrator.
I have a second instance of civicrm which I will upgrade and make the fix and will let you know if it works or not.

Thanks

Might be template caching. Try deleting all files in <site_root>/media/civicrm/templates_c directories.

Duh, my bad. I realized I had to actually go in and re-copy the widget code. The 1 line fix works.....

thanks
