I am using Joomla 3.3 and have a lot of articles. My goal is to make it so the URL for an article is,
www.mysite.com/menu-item/article
However, right now when you click on an article it goes to
www.mysite.com/(id)-article
and takes you to the main page instead of staying on the menu item page. I'd like the page to stay on the menu item's page as I have page specific modules.
I'd like some explicit help as the answers when I Google are rather unclear.
You need to create a menu item for your article, as that will be used to create the url.
…and takes you to the main page instead of staying on the menu item
page. I'd like the page to stay on the menu item's page as I have page
specific modules.
No, it doesn't take you to the main page (you can check that by looking at the URL in your browser) but because Joomla modules are assigned according to menu item IDs when there is no menu item Joomla uses the settings of the default page, your homepage, so you get the same modules as appear on the homepage.
The solution to both these problems is to create a menu item for the article (or at least to its parent category to fix module assignment).
There's a detailed description of the issues and how to deal with them in How to control module display when linking to an article with no menu item.

We’re using Kentico 11.0.26 with MVC.
I need to add an external link under a page.
In content tree it should look something like this:
Page A
Page A1
Page A2
https://www.www.google.com/
The problem is that when I click the + button in Pages application, I only see page types, and there is no option to add a link.
Why not use value of page field to store the link and load the value inside of MVC app? Content tree alone does not have capability for this. All nodes have to be pages in one way or the other and plain old link to external domain can not be placed instead of page. To be honest I do not see benefit of having a link inside of content tree even for menu since you have to create menu using document path and not only its name anyway so accessing additional property should not be that much of a problem.
You could create a new content type to represent an external link and put that into your content tree. This would then also give you options to set additional properties of the link such as target and title rather than just a URL.
I am new to IBM Watson Explorer's Application Builder component.
I able to create some widgets and place them on a page, but I am not able to figure out how to use the global search bar in the page header.
I want to search for something using the global search and the data in the widgets on the page should be updated.
Tried reading the knowledge center docs, but not able to get much info.
For making use of the global search, you may want to understand, where the data for that resides.
The Watson Explorer Engine is where you ingest your documents by creating a search collection and by adding them as seeds and then once that is all set up and you are able to see your data there, you can now switch over to the AppBuilder.

Tabs on admin page of AppBuilder look like this: Image Link: AppBuilder tab header
Once on AppBuilder admin dashboard, you might want to create a new entity by going to the entity tab, located at the top of the page.
Then you can name it whatever you like and from the dropdown select the collection name you had created on Watson Explorer Engine, toggle the searchable button on in the entity page and once done click on save at the bottom of the page.

Then you may want to head over to the layouts tab and then go to the search page there, then drag the search results widget to the pane below and save it.
Layout tab - search page, looks like this: Image Link: Layout tab - search page
Layout tab - search result widget on search page, looks like this: Image Link: Search result Widget
Finally after all this, when you search for the document from the search page "/AppBuilder/search", it should show up there.

Hope this helps.
I am new to Umbraco. Currently, I am facing an odd problem, which is some navigation link in the menu bar does not working properly.
For example, in my navigation link, I use relative link:
When I click that link on the web page, it redirect to error page, says cannot find the template. However, if I jump to Umbraco Admin page, and click link to document: /target, then it works!
I suspect when I trying to access /target from the webpage, it cannot find the document pointing to.
Could someone tell me some possibilities?
Have you tried to republish the node? Also ensure that a template has actually been set on the content node.
My doubt is about the urls:
In Joomla 3.0 I proceed steps for SEO, rename the .htaccess etc.
But example if I create one article with alias: article-url-teste.
I go the menu create one sub-menu item with the same alias for single article.
When I click in submenu item in fontend the article show me ok but the url site/article-url-teste not show, show me the alias the root menu.
I like show alias of the articles.
Joomla SEF urls are not magic bullets in that once enabled you can access any article using the alias. What you described is the correct behavior for how you configured the menu. If you want to be able to access the article directly using the alias you need to create a dedicated menu item.
I usually created a dedicated menutype called Placement or Hidden with articles and any other endpoint I need to be SEF alias accessible. The only major difference being you don't attach the menutype to a mod_menus module for display.
I want to have a confirmation dialog (not plain javascript) show when the user clicks a button, but I'd rather have it embeded instead of referencing another page.
How do I embed a dialog for use on a jQuery Mobile page?
You have 2 options really - if you want it to popup and fill the page, you can create a JQM dialog page (even dynamicaly), and switch to it. JQM dialogs are explained more in detail here:
http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0b1/docs/pages/docs-dialogs.html
It is quite possible to append a new dialog to the same page (simple append it to the container above the one with data-role="page") and switch to it with $.changePage(...)
Another option, if you want it to popup "over" the existing content (modal mode from UI dialog), this plugin will do that:
http://dev.jtsage.com/jQM-SimpleDialog/
Full disclosure: I wrote the second one, so I am biased. However, it does employ a bit of option 1 above, and you are of course welcome to rip the code apart to see how it works if you'd rather roll your own.
Edit:
Another option is to use the builtin popup interface, added in the last major version (1.2.0 I think). It can be found here, and is included in the default:
