Joomla 1.7 sef404 advice please
-
Hi not sure if anyone uses joomla on here but if they do i would love there advice. I have just got a joomla site that is joomla 1.7 but i cannot find a sh404sef component to make the url friendly and would like to know if there is a component out there or if you can use an older one.
I would have thought by now that they would have installed one with joomla 1.7
If anyone uses joomla, then i would be glad to hear from you.
-
My first suggestion would be to review the installation instructions. It sounds like a step was missed.
If the issue remains, try contacting the extension's author via their support forums: http://anything-digital.com/forum/developer/sh404sef/
If you try both steps and still cannot see the control panel, you can e-mail me information for your site and I can take a look: [email protected]

Ryan i have just bought it as my subscription has just ran out but when i have loaded it onto my template for joomla 1.7 i cannot see not control panel for it like you can for joomla 1.5 can you give me any advice please
-
There is a J1.7 version of the extension. I would suggest checking the anything-digital site again. If you are not seeing it, then perhaps your subscription expired. According to the Joomla extension directory SH404SEF is "Joomla! 1.7 ready!": http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/site-management/sef/10134

Hi yes it is the SH404SEF that i am talking about which i am a huge fan of. But when i have tried to put the 1.5 version for my joomla 1.7 template, it did not like it. So i was checking to see if there was a new version for the joomla 1.7 as each new joomla normally has a new updated extension

Hi Diane.
I am confused by your question. SH404SEF is the name of an extension which is designed to provide SEO features such as friendly URLs. The extension is Joomla 1.7 compatible. http://anything-digital.com/sh404sef/seo-analytics-and-security-for-joomla.html
I like the extension and the author specifically cites SEOmoz at times which offers me a measure of confidence in their SEO methods.
If you don't like SH404SEF for any reason, the other extension which seems most comparable is AceSEF: http://www.joomace.net/joomla-extensions/acesef

Joomla creating duplicate pages, then the duplicate page's canonical points to itself - help!
Using Joomla, every time I create an article a subsequent duplicate page is create, such as: /latest-news/218-image-stabilization-task-used-to-develop-robot-brain-interface and /component/content/article?id=218:image-stabilization-task-used-to-develop-robot-brain-interface The latter being the duplicate. This wouldn't be too much of a problem, but the canonical tag on the duplicate is pointing to itself.. creating mayhem in Moz and Webmaster tools. We have hundreds of duplicates across our website and I'm very concerned with the impact this is having on our SEO! I've tried plugins such as sh404SEF and Styleware extensions, however to no avail. Can anyone help or know of any plugins to fix the canonicals?

Starting a Blog and URL Structure Advice
Hello SEOmoz Community, We are going to start a blog on our website and have a slight dilemma. Our site is a .Net site and the blog platform we've chosen (BlogEngine) only allows us to use the following url structure: www.domain.com/blog/post/post-name. We've looked at other .Net blog software and this one meets all of our needs except for the ideal URL Structure. We would like to remove the /post/ directory; however have not technically found a way to do it. We wanted to get some opinions on whether or not we should just start with this URL structure and not worry about the extra directory, or work to find another solution that eliminates this extra directory. Ideally we want to keep the posts as close to the root as possible for link juice distribution, and the extra directory could get in the way. Also, if anyone has any advice on a more flexible .Net blog platform, suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We thank you so much in advance for your time and help.

SEO Issues with Avactis Shopping Cart Please Help(Resolved)
I am seeking advise or help with several issues I am having with Avactis. First is Title Duplicates or adds the same on every CMS page Seal It Green Sealants - Non-Toxic Organic Sealant Products so for instance it say Contact Us-Seal It Green Sealants - Non-Toxic Organic Sealant Products or Whats the Difference Seal It or Xtreme -Seal It Green Sealants - Non-Toxic Organic Sealant Products every cms page it adds Seal It Green Sealants - Non-Toxic Organic Sealant Products to the title description. which in turn makes my Title Descriptions TOO LONG! Second is the very lengthy urls. I came into this project after the site was developed and there are more issues than I ever imagined. Duplicated Pages, Titles etc all over the place. Trying to work on one issue at a time. ( I think re-building the site using something else would of been a quicker solution) But Client didn't want to do that. Any advise or tips to get through this process with this platform would be extremely appreciated.

Very Quick Joomla Question
Hi, A client's site was previously built in Joomla and he wants us to reproduce content that was in there, but the Joomla site is no longer live and has come to me as an archive containing all the files and folders that were included. So, I am looking at the files and folders without Joomla installed. Can someone tell me quickly how to find the where the actual page content was stored? I started looking, but there are some folders I cannot open and nothing that looks as I expected. Would appreciate a hint or two from someone who knows Joomla well.. Life is too short! Thanks Sha
