Hello,

I have searched the documentation but I can't find any information about installing sh404SEF manually. We use repositories to manage our Joomla sites and I can't simply rely on the Joomla installer. Can you provide instructions for installing manually? I figured out where I need to place the site, media, language, and admin files, but I'm not sure what to do with the xml or installation_script. Thank you!

Hi

but I can't find any information about installing sh404SEF manually.
There is no such information, this is not a supported installation method. Joomla does not allow to just add the files of an extension to install it. As I'm sure you're aware, you have to run the Joomla installation procedure which register the extension in the database and then each extension may have their own install script on top - which sh404SEF has.

What would come the closest to that would be:

- install a fresh Joomla site
- install sh404SEF
- run a diff on the site to get a list of new files
- copy those new files to the target website folder
- from Joomla Extensions menu run "Discover install" and actually install sh404SEF.

Best regards
