Joomla 2.5 URL rewrite

Hello,

I am using joomla 2.5. I've enabled the url rewrite successfully. Now url looks: www.mysite.com/category-name/subcategory-name/article-title
But my clients wants url: www.mysite.com/article-title
instead of
www.mysite.com/category-name/subcategory-name/article-title

Please suggest me the method how to do this without using extensions and plugins.

Thanks in advance.

 

You'll have to use SH404 or similar component to be able to do like that. I think built-in SEF is already doing well. Looking for SEF components in the Joomla extensions directory.

 

Hello

I can help you. I am also working on Joomla 2.5 platform. It is really good.

What you can do is install JoomSEF Component. After installing, you can PM me I will tell you how can you change this.

Dear anil2009 It will be difficult for you if you don't use extensions and plugins. You must know well about the code to edit them. You can search it on Google. But why do you not want to do the extension?

 

You can do that by adding the items to a menu without using extensions and plugins.

 

use 3rd SEF extensions like JoomSEF or SH404SEF

Or you can hack Router of joomla
Rgr

 

You can use htaccess redirects to remove the menuitem/menuitem/ from the URL.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/menuitem/.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /menuitem/$1 [L]

OR

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^menuitem/menuitem/.*$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ menuitem/menuitem/$1 [L]
