Hello
after looking on K2 forum I need to know some info before to buy your plugin:
- does it need to map all the k2 categories - subcategories - items from a menu created manually to get correct urls?
- does it remove "content" from k2 category urls?
- does it fix the breadcrumbs issue (as for first question, in k2 I must to create a menu with all k2 categories - subcategories - items to get a correct pathway)?

regards

Hi

K2 is one of the extensions directly providing support for sh404SEF, instead of sh404SEF providing support for it.
This means sh404SEF manages the URL in the URL manager as usual, and all the features are the same, but when we need to build a K2 URL, we use the sh404SEF plugin that comes with K2, so it's not really sh404SEF deciding how URLs are built.
In addition, K2 has an "sh404SEF" section in its configuration section to let you choose how URLs are built so this is where you want to look.

As for your specific questions,
- mapping: not sure I understand fully, but let's just say again this is up to the sh404SEF plugin that comes with K2. I think it does include categories by default;
- I have not seen that on users K2 sites, so I'm pretty sure the K2 plugin doesn't use "content"
- the breadcrumbs "issues" are not K2 or sh404SEF. This is the way Joomla works, and usually you need to have Itemid (ie menu item) attached to things so that the breadcrumbs "work" as expected. Basically, sh404SEF has no impact on that.
