 Hi,

Our Joomla site has a document directory created with Docman 2.1.

The problem we have is that the sef urls generated with sh404SEF don't reflect the structure of the directory, they only reflect the current category.

For instance, let's say our directory it' on documents from cities of the world. The categories structure of the Docman directory would be: Countries > Regions > Cities.

If we navigate the Docman directory from the frontpage and we click on a city name, the url of the page only contains the name of the current city (www.website-name.com/Barcelona/) but not the parent directories (www.website-name.com/Spain/Catalonia/Barcelona/), which is we'd like to.

Indeed we don't have this problem with articles or menu item. The sefurls do display the nested categories of the article or the menu item.

How could we solve that?

Thanks in advance,

Tomas

Hi

1 - There's no relation between URLs built for each extensions, articles are one thing, each extension is another thing. We don't provide support for Docman as we don't have a dedicated plugin for it, but the router.php that comes with it should be OK.

2 - Can you update to current development version of sh404SEF, which can be downloaded from here: xxxx

Once that's done, can you go to the "By components" tab of sh404SEF URL and select "User router.php, with menu item" under the second drop-down list? This should provide maximum Joomla compatibility for extensions that don't come with an sh404SEF plugin.

After changing this setting, you should Purge URLs so that new ones are created.

Hi,

In sh404SEF > Configuration > General > By Component > Docman, in the second drop-down list there's no "User router.php, with menu item" option.

The options are:

- Use sh404sef plugin if available.
- Use Joomla! router.php
- Use Joomsef plugin
- Use Accesef plugin

Which one should we select?

I attach a screen capture so you can check it.

Thanks again, regards,

Tomas

Have you updated to current dev version as requested?

Hi,

We' re running version 4.6.0.2718 of sh404SEF on our Joomla site.

We checked on our weeblr's account and seems to be the last version, isn't it?

Regards,

Tomas
