Hi Guys, I'm working on this website https://bestgamesof.com/ and I faced an issue with tags. I hope you can help me to solve this issue, or maybe if it's a known bug in joomla you may address me how to fix it? So, some of my menus based on tags, and when I click on that menu or on any tag in the website, in the related page, it list all games by the tag, instead of showing 5 or 10 articles per page (according to what it set). only when I change that number manually the page working fine and also pagination shows up. here is an example page: https://bestgamesof.com/multiplayer/multiplayer Number of Articles per is set to 5 per page, but it shows all articles. how can I fix this? and also there is no option for this in menus. I tried to fix this for a few hours but I couldn't. so that's why I'm here. please help if you know the solution. Thanks.
I’ve worked with Joomla a bit, and it sounds like the issue might be with how the tags are set up or how Joomla handles pagination for those tag pages. First off, check your menu settings. Even though you’ve set the articles per page to 5, sometimes Joomla doesn’t apply the pagination correctly to tag-based pages. It could be an issue with how Joomla is handling the category or tag-specific view in your template. One thing you can try is going into the Global Configuration and making sure that pagination is enabled site-wide. Sometimes Joomla needs this global setting to be turned on for pagination to work correctly on all pages, including tag pages. Next, if you’re using a third-party template, check if there’s a template override that could be overriding the pagination settings. Sometimes these templates don’t always play nice with Joomla’s default pagination settings, and you might need to tweak the template’s code or configuration to get it working right. Another thing to check is if there’s a setting in the tag menu item itself that you might have missed. Even though there’s no direct pagination setting there, it’s worth going into the menu item settings and making sure everything is set up correctly. Finally, if nothing works, you might want to consider adding a plugin or extension that improves pagination for tag-based content. There are several Joomla extensions that can enhance pagination or handle issues like this more effectively. Hopefully one of these things helps! If not, I’d suggest checking Joomla’s forums or support documentation for more specific guidance on handling pagination for tags, as it might be a bug with a particular version or configuration.
This sounds like a pagination or menu override issue in Joomla’s tag view. Often, the menu item settings for the tag view don’t correctly apply the “articles per page” limit, causing all items to show. Try creating a dedicated menu item for the tag view and explicitly set the pagination there. Also, check if any template overrides or extensions affect tag listing. If the issue persists, clearing Joomla’s cache and checking for known bugs or updates might help.
