What do I need to should I replace SHF404 with? I want it to at least cover all the functions of SHF404
Reduced schedule during conference and annual break
We'll be operating with a reduced schedule from tomorrow and the next few weeks, as follows:
We'll be travelling and attending JoomlaDay USA from Tuesday April 22 to Friday April 25. Support will have extended response time during this period. From April 25 evening to Tuesday May 12 included, support will be closed for our annual break.
Don't forget to look up the documentation, including the videos, your answer may already be there! Likewise, be sure to check the Development versions area, in case your problem may already have been solved.
In case of emergency (ie your site is down with a fatal error directly linked to one of our extensions), please contact us by email (see contact icon at the bottom of all pages of this site)

Hi
To cover most of sh404SEF features, you should move on to:
- 4SEF: creates SEF URLs in the same way as sh404SEF in most cases, and can import custom SEF URLs from sh404SEF. Maintaining your website URLs is the most important thing.
4SEF only does SEF URLs creation and customization, it has strictly no other feature.
- 4SEO is our current all-in-one SEO extension. It can import custom metadata, redirects and canonicals from sh404SEF. It has many more feature than sh404SEF ever had, although it works in a totally different way.
It is important to note that:
- these are not replacements for sh404SEF. They are different extensions, with different features, but having import functions for data, and covering most of what sh404SEF was doing (and doing much more in the case of 4SEO), they usually allow a smooth transition from sh404SEF.
- moving from sh404SEF to 4SEF or 4SEO must be done on Joomla 3. After the transition is done, the site has been fully tested and all is working well, you must uninstall sh404SEF, either because you don't need it anymore if you stay on Joomla 3, or if you are starting to move to Joomla 4.
Both 4SEF and 4SEO are fully documented, and in each of these extension documentation, you'll find a page dedicated to importing data from sh404SEF.

So 4SEO will do everything 4SEF does - plus more?

Hi

Absolutely not. They are 100% separate extensions with no overlaping in features at all:
- 4SEF does only SEF URLs
- 4SEO does not do SEF URLs at all. It does not know or does not care how SEF URLs are created and it can works with just Joomla SEF, sh404SEF, 4SEF, JoomSEF, MijoSEF, etc
