Hi!
I have use Joomla! 2.5.6 plus K2. All categories and articles were imported in K2 from Joomla! and I started to use JoomSEF in order to remove "item" word from K2 generated URLs and apparently it works but only in some cases.
Before I upgrade to JoomSEF PRO version I would like to get some help to set everything right and make sure that it is the best choice.
here is list of problems encountered:
1. SEF URL character replacements are not generated in every URL even if title articles contain same Non-ASCII characters within the same K2 category and same Joomla! menu as K2 category type as it follows:
a) Some display content and the right URLs with Non-ASCII characters replacement
b) others display content but with URLs with Non-ASCII characters not replaced
c) others display 404 error and have URLs with Non-ASCII characters unreplaced
2. in some cases, also within the same K2 category and same Joomla! menu as K2 category type, articles are displayed with the right URLs Non-ASCII characters replacement but Browser page title is not using the Non-ASCII characters replacement and instead of special characters as: ă, î, â, ş, ţ it is ? (question mark).
3. The meta tags are not entirely properly generated. For example an article with this title and content:
title:
Ambasadorul SUA, într-o altă vizită-surpriză, la Guvern

article content:

as you can see at
<meta name="keywords" content="integral, ?tirea, rocite?te, sursa" />
it only generated keywords from article's signature not form first paragraph. also there's no Non-ASCII characters replacement
please help before I purchase the pro version.
kind regards!
