Menu links to multiple list how set list ID?

Menu links to multiple list how set list ID? was created by deltafidesign
I need to create multiple menu items, one for every CB list. When (J! 2.5) I try to create a new menu item as CB list I cannot set the list ID as it was with previous CB versions (1.3 and earlier)

Is that a bug?

It's a known issue on J1.6-J2.5. It's fixed for CB 2.0. As the fix requires non-backwards compatible changes we will not be fixing this in CB 1.x. Unfortunately it is/was a bug in Joomla that was refused to be fixed in a way that would remain backwards compatible with previous Joomla extensions.

You've 2 options. Create external menu links using the URLs supplied while editing a userlist or editing an internal menu link to userlists and appending &listid=ID directly to the URL in _menu database table.

That's what I've done before, but in this case Joomla! don't allow alias for this kind of men items!!! So I cannot render those link in a SEF way.

I have too many lists

I would wait for CB 2.0 at this time and then rebuild all links that now I have build as External URL

Thanks

Alias should work fine, but Joomla SEF tends to strip Itemid from external links. Ensure all links begin with "index.php".

Will be discussing with Beat and Nick to see if we can find a solution for 1.x release other then direct database edit as this issue comes up basically daily. I apologize for the inconvenience.
