Hi there,

I`ve purchased ArtioSEF 4 and i`m having some problems removing /search/ from the url.
If i install a clean version of Joomla 1.7.3 with the default articles i can remove the /search/ from the search url but if i delete all articles and categories and create new ones that suit my needs and purge the generated urls and cache it shows /search/ in the urls.
If i install a clean version of joomla without the default articles and categories it does the same thing.It shows /search/ in the search url even if i don`t want it. ( when running a non-english site it`s kind of an eye poke )

I had the same problem in december with the free version and thought that the paid one works better but seems that i was wrong and the bug was not fixed yet.

If the administrator of this forum needs adittional details please ask because i really need this to be fixed ( as soon as posible )


Thank you

And another thing

Category URL has also some kind of bug. It duplicates the category name ireferat.net/deutsch/deutsch.html instead of ireferat.net/deutsch.html even if set not to show category.

Come on Artio i always thought of you to be better than this ...

Hi,
The first part in URL is the menu item title. Go to JoomSEF -> Manage Extensions -> Content / Search -> Common tab and disable the "Show Menu Title" option.
Then make sure to purge the already created URLs and clean all caches, so the URLs can be recreated.

Thank you. The duplicate category thing is now ok but still the /search/ appears in the url.
Any more ideeas?

I`ve attached a print screen of the search settings. ( just in case you need one )

How exactly does the URL look like (post some example please) and how would you like it to look like? If you would like an empty URL, unfortunately that won't be possible, because it would be the same as your home page URL. If you just want to change the word "search" to something else, you can either manually customize the URL using Manage SEF URLs page in JoomSEF, or you can use the Custom Menu Title option in Search extension's parameters.
