#6071 – article id sprerated in the sef url

Hi

but I need tge url to generated as the following

domain.com/categorey/articeid/articlealias



how to do so please.

That's not possible within sh404SEF. You would need to do some custom PHP coding to achieve that. Not impossible but a bit complicated unless you're a programmer.

does sh404 generates the redirections from old url to the new one.

It won't do that automatically as it has no idea that you installed something or transfered content from one component to another. However, sh404SEF has a very strong redirection tool so it should be possible to do that. It all depends on:

- the number of articles
- the URL structure "before" (ie with Joomla articles)
- the new URL structure (ie with Easyblog)

1 - If the number of articles is small, you can just manually add redirects one by one

2 - The sh404SEF aliases tool lets you create "generic" redirections (documentation is here), for instance you can have things like:

from: /category-1/{*}/{*}.html
to: /blog/easyblog-category-1/{*}-{*}.html

This would redirect for instance, /joom-cat/12/test-article.html to /blog/easy-cat/12-test-article.html. It would also redirect all the URLs that follow the same pattern.

So if you create your Easyblog categories and articles titles exactly the same, you should be able to use only a small number of redirection rules, maybe just one.

Hi

please to direct me how to achive that.

I can read php and made samll custumizations in the code if a programer guided me.

We cannot do that as part of support, support is only for usage and settings of sh404SEF.

The general rule is as follow:

- create a file: /libraries/weeblr/sh404sef_functions.php
- in that file, paste the following code:

<?php
/**
 * sh404SEF hooks file
 */

defined('_JEXEC') or die();

ShlHook::add(
	'sh404sef_after_plugin_build',
	function ( $string, $vars, $pluginType, $extPluginPath ) {

		if (
			'com_content' == wbArrayGet( $vars, 'option', '' )
			&&
			'article' == wbArrayGet( $vars, 'view', '' )
		) {
			// enter your code here
                       var_dump($string);
                       var_dump($vars);
		}

		return $string;
	}
);

This code allows you to modify the URL as sh404SEF built it. In the area where I marked "//enter your code here" you have variables available:

$string is the SEF URL that sh404SEF built
$vars is an array with the non-sef vars, for instance
$vars['option'] is 'com_content', $vars['view'] is 'article', $vars['id'] is '12', $vars['Itemid'] is '34'

Based on that you can decide to modify the $string SEF URL as you want.

Best regards

Hi

what is the code to add exactly in case this is the url I need to the joomla articles

I don't have any example to provide for this as I've never had any such request. Like I said, customizations are not part of support, the URL format you want is definitely not something sh404SEF can do out of the box.

Best regards
