Link/Shortcut to registration

I want to add a link (in a Joomla menu) seperate from the one in the login module and from the registration link on the forums, that will allow new members to register. I tried a direct link to the SMF registration component, and a link - URL. It didn't work, and I finally figured out that it was because it was adding an itemid to the end of the URL. It would display the registration screen, but but when a user would submit the registration, they would get a blank screen. Registration works fine through all other methods (link in the forums/module). Is there a way to add this to a Joomla menu without generating the itemid? Thanks.

I am using 1.1.6 of the bridge, with RC3, Joomla 1.0.10

I should add that I'm assuming that's what the problem is.

Just adding a component item should work.  You aren't trying to register while already logged in, are you?

Nope, I found that I had:

/index.php?option=com_smf_registration&Itemid=146

instead of:

/index.php?option=com_smf_registration&task=register&Itemid=146

Seems to be working now.

Thanks.
