I am using shf404. If I install 4SEO will it automatically pick up all my settings, URLs, and redirects from SHF404?

Thanks

Hi

4SEO is not a replacement for sh404SEF, it works and does different things, altough of course some things are similar. Very imoprtantly, 4SEO does not handle SEF URLs at all. 4SEF does that.

Here are the details:

1 - 4SEF is our extension for handling SEF URLs. It does only that and has no other features. It can import custom URLs from sh404SEF, and URLs generation settings.

2 - 4SEO is our SEO extension. It does much more than sh404SEF ever did. It does not do anything with SEF URLs. At all. It can import custom meta data and redirects from sh404SEF

3 - The migration should be done while still on Joomla 3.

4 - Move from sh404SEF to 4SEF first, so that your URLs are working as before (again: on Joomla 3)

5 - Once URLs are working as expected, then you can start using 4SEO (again: on Joomla 3)

6 - When all is working, you can then move on to Joomla 4 or 5.

There is extensive documentation on moving from sh404SEF to 4SEF, and from sh404SEF to 4SEO, including video.

Best regards
