 Hi,

I have an issue with 404 on sh404sef.
Site: www.xxxx.com
sh404sef 4.19
Joomla 3.9.14

/[anything] redirects to home, does not get recorded
/shop/[anything] does not get recorded, seems be caught by virtuemart and does say it is a 404
/blog/[anything] works as it should

Thanks,
Amit A.

Hi

This is most likely happening because either:

- you enabled "301 redirect from Joomla SEF to sh404SEF" under "Advanced" tab of sh404SEF configuration
- at least one component is set to "Use Joomla route" under "By component" tab of sh404SEF configuration.

When you do that, in case of 404 the Joomla router is triggered to try decode the URL and unfortunately the Joomla router accepts many URls it should not.
Restore those setting to their defaults and it should be back to normal.

Best regards

Hi Yannick,

Indeed the "301 redirect from joomla SEF to sh404SEF"was enabled and disabling it solved the issue.

Thanks for the help!
Amit

Hi

That's a common situation, actually. Glad it's sorted out now! Closing this ticket now, feel free to open a new one as needed. If you do so, please mention this ticket number in the new one.

If you created any superadmin account for us, be sure to delete or block it now to avoid unnecessary risk in the future.

Be sure to also check out wbAMP, our Accelerated Mobiles pages plugin for Joomla - without AMP, you're missing out on mobile visitors!



Best regards
