Hi all,

The short of it is that we're (finally) moving from Joomla 1.0x to 1.5x and have a dev site underway. For Google etc reasons we imported all the pre-existing URLS from the 1.0x site. As such we purchased JoomSEF again ... but now category blog view articles and menu links appear broken.

Looking through the forum it appears this has something to do with multiple SEF URLs for the same Joomla URL, and the "priority" and "active" settings within JoomSEF. What, exactly, is the bit I can't find.

Is anyone able to help me understand what actions need to be taken in order to resolve this situation? Or perhaps a recommendation to get the paid support and get the guys at Artio to actually do the work??

Either way, thanks in advance!

Jacko

Hello Jacko,

well, could you maybe give the examples of the problematic links you have?
Ideal would be a screenshot from administration (URL Manager).

Of course, if you want us to check the problem, you can get the paid support:

Hi Jan,

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately I don't know exactly what the problematic links are.

All I can say is that an item/menu that is supposed to be a category blog does not display with JoomSEF on, and displays as intended when it is off.

It seems via the forums that others have experienced this, but I can't find anywhere that indicates what needs to be done to remove the problem.

Jacko

Hello,

Which version of JoomSEF do you use? The default and blog layouts are already distinguished correctly in the current version (3.5.3) and next version will offer some options to control it.

Best regards,

Thanks for the follow up.

Still seems a bit odd. We're using v3.5.3 of JoomSEF with Joomla! v1.5.15 stable.

From what I can put together from the forums it's the old URLs from the (existing live) site that are causing some conflict?

Jacko

As jan said, we would really need some examples in order to help you.. Try to find the URL of the problematic menu item in the URLs manager and make a screenshot of the page..
