Hi,

We don't have any special provision from importing directly from other extensions. We do have an import facility, so if data can be massaged into csv files (urls, meta data), that's should be totally possible.

Can you please provide some detail or a link to some documentation as to the format of the .csv files.

joomSEF dose not have an export facility as far as I can see but I will have not difficulty extracting the URL data from the database directly. There are three tables holding the url data which are:
1) "__sefurls" this the majority of the data, it contains the Joomla internal URL and the SEF URL along with meta data and other data which is less important to me.
2) "__sefaliases" aliases for urls such that multiple urls can redirect to the same page (301 redirects)
3) "__sefmoved" (301 redirects) as the name suggests tracks urls that have changed.
I don't fully understand why there are two mechanisms for redirects.

Are 301 redirects supported by sh404sef ?

Thank you
