Hi,
I initially thought this problem was due to com_media and spent a good while trying to figure out why it could not pass the folder variable across. When I found out it was doing this through the url I tried switching SEF off and it worked!
I like Artio a lot - especially as you can, in the configuration, choose to skip the SEF implementation for certain components. However there is no option to switch it off for com_media?
So I put this in the plugins/system/joomsef.php file: (line 31- in the function onAfterInitialise())
if (JRequest::getVar('option')=='com_media') {
return true;
}
and everything works.
Hope this helps someone sometime!
Tom
