TOPIC: How to add forum directory before post in URLs

How to add forum directory before post in URLs 7 months ago #1

I just upgraded sh404SEF and Kunena to the latest versions. My URLs are in this format:

www.site.com/post-title.html

instead of:

www.site.com/forum/post-title.html



What am I doing wrong? How do I make the Kunena URLs have the /forum/ directory?

Get rid of sh404SEF See also, Why would I need ANY third-party SEF plugin?

Not an option, I have several custom components which depend on sh404SEF.

This can't be tough to do, is there a router file I can edit?

1) Do not use Kunena 1.0.x plugin in sh404SEF
2) Make sure that Kunena is not your front page

Those are the most common mistakes.

Other than that I'm not sure what to do. do you have latest version of the SEF component?

Joomla 1.5.15, Kunena is not home page, latest release of sh404SEF. There are no Kunena plugins in the sef_ext folder of sh404SEF. I've even deleted the menu item and created a new one and deleted all of sh404SEF's URLs related to Kunena.

The site is JoomlaDigger.com if you want to see it in action.

Those URLs are actually working. It reminds me from a Joomla SEF bug(?) where itemid gets lost. Can you see non-sef urls from sh404SEF? How does the forum url look like?

And btw: your urls should look like /support/, not /forum/..

The sh404SEF URL for the main menu item is 'support.html' and its real URL is 'index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=332&lang=en'

You are correct about /support/ instead of /forum/, I was just trying to make it easier to understand.


EDIT:

I don't think it is an Itemid bug, the proper main menu item is always properly selected.

i am not using any SEF plugins at the moment, just a joomla built-in SEF turned on in global configuration.
