In our case it was done like this:
1. For all our own components and modules on the site, own route classes were written
2. All meta tags were imported semi-manually from SQL into the original articles
3. All menus have been reorganized so that the standard SEF module in Joomla 5 generates exactly the same links as in JoomSEF
4. Some security settings turned out to be not critical for Joomla 5 and PHP 8.2
5. The redirects were not critical, but I also plan to transfer them to the original Joomla 5 module, and for the critical ones the .htaccess file was manually configured

In general, the transition from Joomla 3.10 -> Joomla 5 did without third-party components.

JoomSEF, thank you, you were not bad, but progress is moving forward at breakneck speed.

I have been looking for a replacement for a long time, but everything is much worse.

A fairly easy way is to use the two plugins 4SEF and 4SEO, they have an import from sh404SEF, which has an import from JoomSEF. So the transition looks like this:

1. Install sh404SEF (only for J3)
2. Install the special plugin sh404SEF-importer.
3. Import all the data by selecting the JoomSEF in this import plugin.
4. Install the 4SEF plugin, go to its settings and import Urls from sh404SEF
5. Install the 4SEO plugin, go to its settings and import Aliases and Meta from sh404SEF
6. Remove JoomSEF, sh404SEF and now you can upgrade to J4.

Of course, there will be some errors in urls, redirects, and other data... but maybe it's better than creating everything from scratch. Especially for large sites (I have ~3800 addresses, several localizations, manually filled in metadata, and a bunch of accumulated redirects).

Hello!

Any ideas for this?

Hello!

I'm using your component, it is very easy to use and works well.
I have the following URL:

www.mydomain.com/changelog?product=name&version=1.85

changelog - is written by me component com_changelog for joomla

Can I make a URL like:

www.mydomain.com/changelog/name/1.85

so that the last two parameters passed to my component correctly?

Thanks!

Hello,

When creating SEF URLs, parameters 'itemid' and 'Itemid' considered as different, and create a duplicate URL. For example,

Correct:
en/downloads/databases
index.php?option=com_content&catid=13&id=367&lang=en&view=article&Itemid=159

Wrong (duplicate):
en/downloads/databases
index.php?option=com_content&catid=13&id=367&itemid=159&lang=en&view=article&Itemid=159


Thanks.

JoomSEF 4.3.0
Fix - Correct sitename for selected language is used

Please fix problem with empty sitename if it is not defined in the language settings:

joomsef.php

// Set correct sitename
$cfg->set('sitename', $langs[$lang]->sitename);

replace to:

if (!empty($langs[$lang]->sitename)) $cfg->set('sitename', $langs[$lang]->sitename);

Thanks.
