or like
http://www.zaidal.net/Net2phone ..Voice over internet protocol/

It's the second alternative if it's static page (typed content).

You only need to have ZLIB which you usualy have if you can install other components via Mambo admin.

Is there a work around?

Thanks,

It looks like this component includes sef.php from the admin part of the script.
Look up for this include and comment it out.

I am not sure what your question is...

Try searching for site:yoursite.com on Google. It may take a while before your page is indexed. Try to add your site's URL to Google if you haven't done this already: http://www.google.com/add_url.html

Hi Emir,

Any chance you could have a look at the .php issue for me?

Thanks,

You mean correct 404 headers when non-existent .php file is requested?
In that case yes, it has been fixed in the new version comming out very soon.

Great! Thanks very much.

Hi,

I have a problem on Itemid.
My static content has a link to menu.
example: id (CID) = 130, and Itemid (menuid) = 221
index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=130&Item id=221

when I pass this URL into sefRelToAbs() function, the output is correct, let say: my.domain.com/MyStatic_Content/

But when I clicked that URL, it didn't return to static content, but go to the front page.
After debuging, I check the Itemid and id variable by print it $_REQUEST['Itemid'] and $_REQUEST['id'].
The Itemid returned 1, and id returned null / nothing.

What's wrong with my content?

Thanks,
[bayu]

It can be different reasons but most likely this:

While you are there study the other FAQs as well and see if anything helps.

Thanks for the new version. I particuarly like the ability to define custom URLs.

A problem exists (for me) when naming a file with an underscore _ between words. It produces the result of %11 where the _ should be. ie my_page becomes the url http://domain.com/my%11page.html

Using a hyphen - is no problem

any suggestions?

cheers

I suspected the same problem. The standard .htaccess script produced 404's when switched on, and there was no way I could get that part working correctly. Although when I took everything out of the .htaccess script but the google.html test, it worked ok.

Have a look at your visitor logs. I found that the friendly url's I was using were not being recorded. So I did a link check from http://www.siteowner.com/badlinks.cfm and found a whole lot of link errors.

I changed hosting to a another company and that solved it. Links working and logs recording friendly urls. My site is still in googles "sandbox" but expect for them to be displaying "Similar pages" ok soon.

cheers

I have just upgraded my SEF advance to version 4.2 (using mambo 4.5.2) and I can no longer use the search feature or alphabetical listing with Mosets Tree (page just reloads). Clicking on categories is no problem.

Here is my directory: www.mvoipprovider.com/voip

Using the debug modus I get the following error messages (no hassles with SEO turned off):

Anybody with any ideas?

I have the same problem too, after upgrading to 4.2 - the search engine is always go to frontpage; not a result page.
Before upgrading SEF Advance it works fine. I use Mambo 4.5.2.3

If you use underscore as word separator then regular underscoores in the titles will not be shown. Naturally because they would be interpreted as spaces.

You can use a hyphen as word separator. Then title underscores will show correctly.

Regarding the listing problem I think it's best to contact Moses first.
The extension seem to have a problem with the trailing slash. I am sure he will be able to fix it in no time.

It's the new feature of redirecting to a URL with trailing slash if one is not present (to make a folder effect) that causes it.

[Saka]

A new version of SEF advance has been released.
Version 4.2 brings several improvements including long awaited ability to define custom URLs.

Use the automatic download page to request the update.

What's new in version 4.2?
------------------------------
- Custom URLs (alias) support added
Now it's possible for you to manually define the look of the URLs if you don't like automatic generated ones.
- You are no longer required to have unique Item titles
You can now have articles with the same title in different categories. For example /fruit/apples/about.html and /fruit/pears/about.html
- A trailing slash "/" get appended to URLs to create a folder effect
When calling URL without extension or trailing slash, one gets appended automatically to make appearance of a real folder.
- Added help documentation
You can now find help on every page of SEF advance admin area.
- Fixed archive module support
- Fixed a problem with incorrect headers being returned when non-existent .php file is requested

SEF advance 4.2 is compatible with Joomla! 1.0, Mambo 4.5.2 and backwards compatible with Mambo 4.5.1 and 4.5.0.
All existing customers can upgrade to new version for free.

This indicates that SEF advance is pulling wrong Itemid from database or no Itemid at all. Make sure that you add all sections (listings or blogs) to main menu. If you don't want them to show you can unpublish them but they must be there.
Also make sure that you don't have duplicate items in the menu. It can happen that you have same links in different menus (e.g. mainmenu and topmenu). In this case delete duplicates and use ordinary relative URLs instead.
Make sure that you empty the trash too as some duplicates may be in trash as well.

[steve0]

i`ll have a look again tonight, thanx for the fast response
