Hello.
I am trying to make JoomSEF v3.2.4 work with Joomla 1.5.9 and Virtuemart 1.1.3.

So far it has been a success and a love your component. It works on a IIS7 server (LIVE site) and Apache (Local with MAMP on mac).

But... (there is always a but ;-)) there are some issues I can't find a solid fix for.
The SEF from the Clobal Config is enabled in all scenarios.

When JoomSEF is enabled
- Anchor links on content pages don't work. They are redericted to frontpage (site/joomla/#anchor) instead of within the article (site/joomla/article.html#anchor). I have seen other threads about it but not for v3 of JoomSef.
- Articles on frontpage with Readmore activated opens but together with all other modules on the frontpage. In this case with featured product from Virtuemart. I want the article to open by it self (with theme & navigation only).
- When I try to use "Print" on a productpage (in virtuemart I get a #404 page). Printing an article works like it should.

When JoomSEF is disabled.
All above work like they should.

Can somebody assist me in this...?
Thank you in advance.

Solved the printing issue!


I set "Set QUERY_STRING" to yes in the config page.

Here is my system specifications if it helps:

System 1: (LIVE SITE)
Database Version: 5.0.67-community-nt
PHP Version: 5.2.6
Web Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.0
WebServer to PHP interface: cgi-fcgi

System 2 : (LOCAL)
Database Version: 5.0.41
PHP Version: 5.2.5
Web Server: Apache/2.0.59 (Unix) PHP/5.2.5 DAV/2
WebServer to PHP interface: apache2handler

I've got the same issue with Anchors in an article linking directly to the base href instead of to the anchor within the currently viewed page. Any ideas anyone?

Using Joomla v1.5.9, JoomSEF v3.2.3

Anchors solved!
In the backend in JoomSEF Advanced Configuration section:
Set "Don't use" on "Base href tag"

I'm not sure what this will do on the rest of the functionality but for now it seems to be working.
I shouldn't remind you that what ever you do... BACKUP your site! Can't be held responsible if all hell brakes loose.

Chopstik...? Did this solve it for you to?

Worked a treat! Well spotted, thank you. I set my config to "Use current page" and that worked fine. Phew!
