On almost all pages on my site I have menus appearing in the left position. I turn JoomSEF on and everything is fine - except once I turn JoomSEF on, any new content item I create will have my menus missing from the left position, even though the menu modules are set to display on those items.

Proof of concept, turning JoomSEF off causes the left menus to display again for the new content items. Turning it on again causes left menus to disappear from my new content items.

I've tried deleting the URL from the JoomSEF backend - it doesn't do anything.

What's the solution? My specs:

ARTIO JoomSEF v2.2.6 <-- paid

Hello,

The problem is probably caused by wrong Itemid parameter in the SEF URL for the new content or in some configuration preventing the correct Itemid to be used - like "Ignore multiple sources". If you link to the items from other contents, make sure the Itemid in the link is correct. Also you can try turning "Guess Itemid" option on in Content extension parameters.

Yup, that fixed it.

Thank you!

Actually, I'm having the same problem again and now "Ignore Multiple Sources" isn't solving it like it did before. Can you explain what you mean by "Guess Itemid" because I can't find that anywhere.

Hello,

This option is located in Content extension parameters - you can get there by clicking on Content in the list of extensions installed on JoomSEF's control panel page.
