Hi Guys

We have a component that isn't supported by sh404sef.

It is generating URL's links like the following "index.php?option=com_dutchfactory&Itemid=101&id=27%7Ctestname-co-uk&lang=en&task=viewbids"

Which looks like this using Joomla's url rewriting (without sh404sef".

https://thatname.uk/viewbids/24/test-one-uk


Is there anyway if we bought your software for it to write a rule to automatically on the fly change all of these links as they are created to look like this

https://thatname.uk/test-one-uk

https://thatname.uk/testdomain.co.uk

https://thatname.uk/anothertestname.co.uk

etc - stripping out everything but leaving the domain name

Thanks

Hi

Which looks like this using Joomla's url rewriting (without sh404sef".
You should at least get the same result as with Joomla SEF. I can't say much more but if it has a router.php file meant for Joomla this should be used for sh404SEF as well.

Maybe this component has support for an old sh404SEF version or another SEF extension and it does not work. Can't say without actually looking into the details of it but again, whatever is achieved with Joomla SEF should be achieved with sh404SEF.

Best regards

Thank you for your reply,

This is the content of the route.php file. If we requested it, is it possible we could pay you to write a plugin for us that sh404 would support to do what we wanted?

This isn't very widely used software so doubt there would be much demand for it from other customers but we are willing to pay if it can be done?

Kind Regards
Martin

Hi

It's the router.php file that matters and it should work pretty much the same with Joomla and sh404SEF - if no other plugin for sh404SEF or another extensions is there and breaking the whole thing.

If you have a router.php, it should work, with no need for custom code. 99% of extensions work without specific sh404SEF support.

Best regards

Cheers for that

I'm pretty sure you are write in that in will rewrite them, it looks great software. What we were trying to get the system to do was rewrite them automatically according to a rule without us having to rewrite each url individually.

Can I just confirm that you think that this is possible with your software?

Sorry to be a pain, just saves us asking you questions after we have purchased it.

Thanks

Hi

Can I just confirm that you think that this is possible with your software?
I can only say that if it works with Joomla SEF it will work with sh404SEF. Will it require some custom coding? I don't see why but you cannot have any guarantee on that. If some custom coding is required, yes we can be hired to do that.
