SimpleSEF 2.0 (SMF 1.1.x and SMF 2.0)

[SlammedDime]

That is normal... that's a category, not a board.  Disable SimpleSEF and you'll see the same result.

No, it isn't, when i click here on link on this page for examle -> Customizing SMf i'm redirect just to that category not on index of all boards and categories.

See attach:

You are redirected to the board index, and the hash takes you down to that category... try scrolling the page (hell, just look at the URL... 'index.php#c18').

Is there a way to  change the categories url?

On my site I have a custom frontpage that replaces the Board Index,  the Board Index its on a custom  action  "forum"  when I'm not on the frontpage   the link for a category is this:   http://missallsunday.com/#c3   that of course leads me to the frontpage because I assume this is done intentionally by the mod, what I was wonder is if I could change that url to http://missallsunday.com/forum/#cX  which is the right url for the Board Index's categories.


I'm using SimpleSEF 2.1 SMF 2.0  on LiteSpeed

Thanks.

I would consider that to be a bug in whatever portal software you're using, as if you disable SimpleSEF, you'll likely have the same result.  If you do have the desired result with SimpleSEF disabled, let me know.  SimpleSEF only rewrites the urls as it finds them, and it's very specific about how it does it.

[Suki]

OK, let me check then.   I'm not using any portal software its just a script I wrote for this, guess I didn't wrote it properly    

Do you have any idea where to start to check for this urls?  BoardIndex.template.php perhaps?

Yes it is my script, sorry   

[SlammedDime]

You'll have to check around to see how/where that section of the link tree is made, or you could edit the function that spits out the link tree and modify the first value and append ?action=forum to it.

Tried again with release for 2 final. Same issue

Then, although it created perfectly fine URLs it opened the home page of the main site. I.e. the forum is here:
www.nonsmokersclub.com/forum/index.php
but no matter which board or topic I clicked, it would open this page:
www.nonsmokersclub.com

spiros - what is the contents, if any, of your .htaccess in your public_html folder?  And what is the contents of the .htaccess in your /forum folder.

Thanks, it took me a while but I think I solved it with this:

Code (php) Select Expand


if (!empty($context['linktree']))
foreach ($context['linktree'] as $key => $tree)
if (strpos($tree['url'], '#c') !== false && strpos($tree['url'], 'action=forum#c') === false)
$context['linktree'][$key]['url'] = str_replace('#c', '?action=forum#c', $tree['url']);

Is there a way to 301 redirect all old urls to new ones?

I see that they are already 301 redirected?   

[SlammedDime]

[Farmacija]

Bravo for you, i read earlier in this topic, i think, that all of the old urls lost their pr after enabling simplesef.

[SlammedDime]

I don't recall seeing that anywhere (unless someone came from a different SEO mod)... I think I've always had the 301 redirect in here

[Farmacija]

Yes,my bad, it was talked about prety url mod

The old links tha pretty urls made will not longer work and google or any other search engine will just dismiss them, after you install simpleSEF the new links are going to be indexed, it just take time thats all.

Why my urls don't look like this one from example:

Code Select Expand

http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?board=1.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/general_discussion/
http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?topic=1.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/general_discussion/welcome_smf_1.0.html

Instead of this when i enable "Create Simple URLs" I have:

Code Select Expand

http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?board=1.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/board_1.0/
http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?topic=1.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/topic_1.msg1.html

and with disabled "Create Simple URLs"  urls look like this:

Code Select Expand

http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?board=1.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/board/
http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?board=2.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/a/
http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?board=3.0 =>> http://www.yourboard.com/n/
http://www.yourboard.com/index.php?topic=396.msg5356#new =>> http://www.yourboard.com/board/_396.msg5356.html

My server is LiteSpeed V5.5 with PHP 5.3 and MySQL 5.5.11-55
Earlier i had PrettyURLs, but i removed it before i installed SimpleSEF.

If I had to guess, I'd say that Joomla's rewrites are interfering with SimpleSEF.  YOu can try to comment out the rewrite stuff in your public_html .htaccess file and see what happens then.  If that's the case, I'm not sure of the solution, I haven't run into that situation before.

ph4ntom - What language is your board in?  Are you using UTF-8?

[Adrek]

polish and yes, i am using UTF8
