TOPIC: How do you set store name in joomsef?

How do you set store name in joomsef? 17 years, 7 months ago #2181

I have joomsef 1.5 and the virtuemart 1.0.1 extension installed on my server. From what I understand, the layout for the urls for virtuemart sef url's is something like domain.com/storename/category/product.html. My problem is, for some reason, joomsef has decided that one of my categories is my store name. All my main menu url's are "domain.com/48k-pure-tech-3000-multibed-s...umber.html" and my main menu items are all set to link to virtuemart categories. Then if you choose a product, it's url is like "domain.com/48k-pure-tech-2000-multibed-s...0-met.html"
City water softeners being the main category, and then pure tech systems being a sub, and each one a sub until the last part being the product. Now 48k pure tech 3000 multibed system is the first of the low level categories on my main menu, and 48k pure tech 2000 multibed system is the first low level category in the section that the fleck 2510 is in. Now any product I choose, the part where store name should be has the first low level category as the name there. Anyone know why it's like that and how I can fix it?

Thank you,

Ok, well I just read the documentation, and it seems I have another problem. My main menu items all have url domain.com/48k-pure-tech-3000-multibed-system/number.html and by number I mean it starts off on the first menu link, and starts counting, from 1 to 402 for each of my menu items. Now in the documentation it says:

Use JoomSEF Configuration to turn SEF off for those components you do not need it or which generate too many unoptimized links. Typically when you note links like 45.html, 46.html, ..., something is probably wrong.

However, I can not turn SEF off for virtuemart, since it is one of the main reasons why I am using the sef component, and that I bought the virtuemart extension for. So does anyone know what is wrong there?

Thanks,

Well, I sort of fixed the problem by turning on the "exclude souce info". However, there is still a problem. Now the url for each menu item is domain.com/menuitem/category/subcategory/menuitem.html. Why is the menu item at the beginning?

If no one can answer that question, does anyone know if there is any sort of configuration for the joomSEF extensions? I have bought the virtuemart extension, and that seems to be the one causing the problem. All of the links that I get a problem url on are virtuemart links. The links on my menu go to virtuemart categories, and the other links I spoke of are on virtuemart products. So it seems like I need to configure the virtuemart extension, however I cannot find any access into a configuration for it. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
David Henderson
