Hi
Could you advise the version of jD and of Joomla you are using please. Also what 2 languages.
Which layout are you using - have you recently changed the layoutyou are using? I ask as some settings require a corresponding place holder in the appropriate layout.

After migrating a bilingual website to Joomla 4 about three months ago, jDownloads was initially working without issues. However, a new problem has recently appeared.

Whenever a user tries to access a jDownloads single category menu item, a 404 error is displayed. This happens in both language versions of the site.

The categories themselves still exist (for example, the Meetings category), and the related menu items are also present (such as Agendas–Minutes). Despite this, the links to those single category pages are no longer functioning and consistently return a 404 error.

Hello,
At the top of a category listing page my site shows "{page_navigation_pages_counter}" just above the files list.  I'm using the latest version of jdownloads and joomla 5.4.3.  how do I resolve this?

Thank you,

Tim

This and that... / Feature Request: Allow Downloa...
Last post by tussockstud - 09.03.2026 04:30:23
Hello JDownloads team,

I would like to suggest a feature that allows a single download item to be assigned to multiple categories.

Currently, each download can only be placed in one category, which makes it harder to organize files that may belong to different sections of a website, such as manuals, updates, or resources.

Could you please let me know if this functionality is planned for future versions? If not, is there any recommended workaround to achieve similar behavior with the current version of JDownloads?

Thank you for your time and consideration.

QuoteIn the loger term I would suggest that this becomes a standard option in the Modules.

Is already added in the v6 release.

QuoteThis is just for practical reason, all single user downloads are put there and a link "My downloads" link to this category. Permission for single user is per Download.
All users exist and belong to group Registered.
That's a completely normal configuration/use and shouldn't cause any problems.
One more reason why I assume there's a misconfiguration.

I think Colin will find the mistake, he knows this area very well.  ;)

Quote from: Arno on 27.02.2026 13:02:32A category cannot be assigned to just one user. Only if a single user group has been created for that user.

This is just for practical reason, all single user downloads are put there and a link "My downloads" link to this category. Permission for single user is per Download.
All users exist and belong to group Registered.

I believe Colin will take a look, he got credentials to my site.

Thanks
