    Hi!

    I really need your help now. Wasted 2 night with sh404sef component for joomla 1.5.7 and nothing working. I need to make a friendly search url for site - fastpokernews.com.

    Now my links looks like fastpokernews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=82:world-poker-tour-canada-in-final-stage&catid=34:wpt&Itemid=55

    Sef component included in joomla 1.5 is't work. If i turn it on, all links stays long and if i want to open some page, i always come back to home page.

    I installed sh404sef. First time, all pages on my site crushed. Then i changed htaccess.txt to .htaccess and turn "no index.php?" mode in the admin panel of this component. Home page working fine after it, and all links changed to short, but when i clicking on the links, i still get 404 page. Old long links is working fine. In the admin panel of 404 i see table with old and new links, and all seems to be fine.

    Somewhere i read that i need correct .htaccess file, but i can't find it anywhere.

    Maybe i doing something wrong? Can anyone help me? I really need correct urls.

    Thanks.

    #  mod_rewrite in use

    RewriteEngine On
    
    
    
    #  Uncomment following line if your webserver's URL 
    
    #  is not directly related to physival file paths.
    
    #  Update YourMamboDirectory (just / for root)
    
    
    
    # RewriteBase /YourMamboDirectory
    
    
    
    #
    
    #  Rules
    
    #
    
    
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    
    RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
    
    Code (markup):
    that`s the htaccess you will need to use , just change the # RewriteBase /YourMamboDirectory/ to be( # RewriteBase / ) in your joomla was uploaded on the html directory , and use (# RewriteBase /Yourjoomla direcotry ) if you uploaded it in another folder .

    have a nice time :)

    thanks all! I make it.. :-D :) you can see it - fastpokernews.com/WSOP/wsop-2008.html
    now i have problem with .hmtl, i know how to remove it, but old links with .html will not work, and my visitors go to 404 :-(
    Oh. P.S. problem was in server, i turn server to apache / php5 mod_rewrite and all working fine now!
