Hi there,

we are busy building a new acccommodation booking portal and included the sh404SEF component in order to ensure the best possible SOE optimization.

Unfortunately it seems that due to the sh404SEF component some features of another component do not work.

Herewith some more details:

We are using Joomla v 3.9.24, Helix ultimate template with Bootstrap v.4 and php version 7.4

Our website is tia.guide

Next to sh404SEF we have installed various other component, but there seems to be a problem with the Solidres component. Since some parts of the Solidres Component did not function as they should, we contacted their support team and they just came back to us, informing us that the sh404SEF breaks their AJAX URL. They have asked me to relay the message to you so that it can be fixed.

For the time being we are forced to disable the sh404SEF component until this bug can be fixed. The Solidres developers also asked to send you the attached screenshot, which seems to explain the issue.

Please let me know what other details you require from my so that you are able to look at the problem/bug in detail.

Thank you and kindest regards,

Bernd Schneider

Hi

Unfortunately it seems that due to the sh404SEF component some features of another component do not work.

That's possible even though it does mean the problem is actually coming from sh404SEF.

Since some parts of the Solidres Component did not function as they should, we contacted their support team and they just came back to us, informing us that the sh404SEF breaks their AJAX URL.

That's not a really accurare description of the issue, it would be better to have had a clear description, with an actual reason.

Fortunately, the screeenshot you provided is enough to identify the issue:

1. The 404 happens not because sh404SEF is doing anything special but simply because SolidRes is not calling the proper URL.

2. They are using a relative URL, they are calling "index.php?option=com_solidres&format=....". They should be calling:

"/index.php?option=com_solidres&format=...."

or

"https://yoursite.com/index.php?option=com_solidres&format=...."

3; If you look at that same screenshot, you can see the 2 first ajax requests are working fine, because they are correctly prefixed, ie they call "https://tia.guide/index.php....". Then the 3rd one is failing because they used a relative URL, missing the leading slash or leading domain and therefore it's resolved by the browser as another, invalid URL.

4. It's not an extremely rare bug, I've seen it a few times over the years. They can fix it simply by correctly prefixing their ajax URL using the Joomla API. Most extensions use a 

Hope it helps,
