Hi there,

on a customer's website (Joomla 3.4.1) we are using SH404Sef (Ver. 4.4.8.2409). The website is multi-language. For the standard language (German) we do not use a language-prefix in the URL.

The problem: With SH404Sef enabled the switch from a subpage in a different language (like English or Chinese) via flag symbol back to the standard language's version of the page we get an 404 or landing on a wrong page, because SH404Sef leaves the previous language prefix in the URL.

Example:
The switch should go from http://www.xxxx.de/en/services/ to http://www.xxxx.de/leistungen/.
But it goes to http://www.xxxx.de/en/leistungen/, which is wrong.

We disabled Joomla's caching and our caching component JotCache 5.1 but the error still occured.

We disabled SH404Sef and the switch worked fine.

The website: http://www.xxxx.de

Is it a SH404Sef bug or a configuration issue?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards,

Karsten xxxx

Hi

It's neither really a bug or a config issue. It's closer to a bug in Joomla!, introduced in 3.4.1. I have not yet had any time to report it, and I'm not sure they'll integrate the fix as it involves some changes that are hard to test.

Anyway, in the last few days, we have worked with other users to try find a workaround, and we have now something that should work with J! 3.4.1.
You can download it from https://copy.com/xxxx. This is a test version, but a production one, so you can install and test as you would a new version.

Let me know
