When I transitioned to Joomla 4 I needed to figure out an alternative to JoomSEF, as you all did. Here is what I ended up doing:

1. Change all article aliases to match what you want the SEF URL to be (e.g., pizzeria-uno).
2. Change all category aliases to match what you want the SEF URL to be (e.g., chicago-dining).
3. Install Route66 plugin.
4. In Route 66 settings, configure article URLs to be {articleAlias}, and category URLs to be {categoryAlias}.

Worked well for me, though it did require manually changing to the appropriate alias on articles and categories, which took some time.

I manage eshops a lot and need a bit more there... so I have to stay on j3.5 and wait. There is no alternative. Everything else is shit. The problem with JoomSEF is the price. There is no reason to buy the PRO version. That's why everyone uses free. Well, that's why they're not enthusiastic about another update. At the same time, it would not be difficult... every other normal joomla component is already J4 ready.

According to a message directly from the Artio developers, they are now working on both JoomSEF and VMInvoice for joomla 4. So we just have to wait.

that's good news

Not found any update on this here

Hello Artio Team,

I am a loyal customer of JomSEF for almost 20 years now.
Soon I have to update my site to Joomla 4 and of course want to keep using JomSEF.

Would you kindly let me know, if you are working on a Joomla 4 version and when would be the expected availability.

Thanks in advance and best regards

Michael
