Hello,

I've noticed that the URL's on my website (including article's) are all non SEF URL's.
Of course when I click on these URL's they work fine and I do get a SEF URL (probably with a 301 redirect).

I'm curious if it's possible to automatically replace the Joomla item ID URL's with SEF URL's inside the actual content.
This seems to happen with my menu's, but when I add links in modules or article's to other article's I get a non SEF url in the HTML code of my website.

Best Regards,

Hi

There are multiple possible reasons for that:

1 - you have disabled the Joomla SEF system plugin. That's the Joomla plugin in charge of looking at a page content, finding URLs and making them SEF (sh404SEF is not doing that, it's a buitl-in Jooma feature - it's during this process that Joomla calls upon sh404SEF to make the non-sef to sef transformation)

2 - When you create a link in your content, you insert also the domain, or a leading slash. For instance:

index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12&Itemid=1

is a valid URL, that will be sef-ied

/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12&Itemid=1

http://mysite.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12&Itemid=1

are both invalid, and will not be sef-ied

To be processed by Joomla, a content link must start with index.php.

3 - You use the Joomla cache system plugin, but it's not located as the last plugin.

Thank you for the detailed explanation. It was indeed an issue with absolute URL's. Caused by a setting in the JCE editor.
