Hello
We use EasyBlog to manage the blog of a website. You can automatically publish a blog post on LinkedIn account through an API.

We encounter a bug if this automation is done in the back office. We lose re-written link and image. So, it is the Joomla crude link is recovered (screen capture A2 and C). By clicking on the article link in LinkedIn, the article appears on the website but on the home page (screen capture A1), rather than appear in the section of the website (screenshot and B1 B2).

We contacted the support EasyBlog with this answer:
"Actually that was known issue in Sh404sef extension, if you published new post from backend, that post URL will not show SEF URL e.g. http://xxxx.eu/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=entry&id=32 , is because SH404sef do not render the SEF URL from backend, it only render on frontend.

In other word, if you publish your new post from frontend, that post URL which post to your Linkedin account, it will show correctly the post URL and the image also show correctly.

"

When do you think? I changed the settings of sh404SEF, but that does not change (screenshot config-sh404SEF) ...

There is no problem if we created and published the article from the blog front office

Thank you for the help you could bring me

"Actually that was known issue in Sh404sef extension, if you published new post from backend, that post URL will not show SEF URL e.g. http://xxxx.eu/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=entry&id=32 , is because SH404sef do not render the SEF URL from backend, it only render on frontend.

This is not correct, or rather misleading. No extension renders full SEF links from the backend, this is not part of Joomla API.
Good extensions such as AcyMailing handle that nicely, but it seems EasyBlog has not work enough on this. We actually have an API for 3rd party such as Easyblog to still get the SEF URLs from the backend.

The general use is:

Sh404sefHelperGeneral::getSefFromNonSef($nonSefUrl, $fullyQualified = true, $xhtml = false, $ssl = null)

This is what they should be using when sh404SEF is installed.

Hope this helps

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback. I did follow the info EasyBlog ...

Is what I can do something, waiting for a patch of EasyBlog? Is it possible to disable "temporarily" SH404SEF for blog posts?

Bests regards

Hi

Yes, the problem must be fixed in EasyBlog. You can can currently set EasyBlog to "Leave as non-sef" under the "By components" tab of config, but I wouldn't recommend that, this would change all links, just for the sake of this sharing feature. Don't they have an option to just leave links as non-sef when in the backend?
That way, you can enable "301 redirect from non-sef to SEF" in sh404SEF, and those non-sef will be redirected to their SEF equivalent automatically. That would certainly be the most robust solution.

Thank you for your comeback,

I tried several types of configurations and it changes nothing ... the URL rewritten is lost if publishing from the back office to LinkedIn (though the rewritten URL is present at the blog).

By against the url rewritten is present on LinkedIn and on the blog if publishing since frontoffice ...

I await the return of EasyBlog media ... it's a shame because the rest of this component is very well ...

Thank you for your help, I leave the post open days, if new information came

That's what I said. This can only be fixed in EasyBlog and nothing in sh404SEF can help.
