Artio JoomSEF extends the core Joomla SEF component adding several key features:

* Ability to customise URLs (eg search.html)

* Better (nicer) URLs as default (no /com/foo,task,blah/here/)

* Custom redirects

* 404 Tracking

* Custom meta tags

Excellent component. Quick/easy installation. Anyone using SEF should give this baby a go.

very functional program

Took me a while to install this because of the dreaded .htaccess file, but that was due to my lack of knowledge. Eventually I worked out that if I backed up my current .htaccess file and deleted it off my server, JoomSEF will actually create a new one and configure it automatically on install, so that's how I got it working. It's a very functional program and does everything necessary like dealing with 404 error files and of course it's main purpose of creating a search engine friendly link. The only thing they could really add to this program is meta tag generation, to save me having to install the a seperate program, nevertheless a very good program

Way too cool!

I noticed this in my source code

JoomSEF SEO by Artio, sponsored by Prague Hotels.

Are you trying to get ALL the sites that use this banned by the se's

PLEASE remove this at once

and shame on you..

The software is great.. but this is BAD

Owner's reply: This is regular link to the authors of the software you are using (and possibly its sponsors). It is the same as Joomla! self does, as well as other authors of open-source. You are free to remove this if you want and there is also a version free of this available in our webstore. Finally, you are informed about this in documentation and on installing the component.

not for me

absolutely killed my performance on my site. Had a few quirky things it did with URL's - never could sort them out.

Wouldn't recommend for a content heavy site.

Owner's reply: When using JoomSEF for content heavy site a special care need to be taken about its configuration as otherwise it can really become a problem. If you are not sure about how to configure, contact authors.

But at least 2 things to remember: Joomla! caching does a lot + switch off SEF for dynamic non-supported elements that generate too many links such as calendars and similar.

Very nice!

This extension works great, the only option I would like to see is the ability to have index.php go to the root. You can't lead with "/" so you the root will show as www.domain.com/index.php or www.domain.com/home

1.3.1 Anchors BIG problem

Chrono (2).
Posted on 09 December 2006

Hi all

this component is great, however when it comes to anchors there is a problem, I have a link to an anchor "#top" at www.mysite.com/article1.html , when you hover over the link you expect that it will get : www.mysite.com/article1.html#top , but no, it will get www.mysite.com/#top , this is fixed by going to this file : mambots/content/mossef.php and edit the "else if" starting at line 79 to be :

else if ( strpos( $matches[1], '#' ) === 0 ) {

// special handling for anchor only links

$url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

$url_1 = $url; ///// my fix

$url = explode( '?option', $url );

if (is_array($url) && isset($url[1])) {

$link = 'index.php?option'. $url[1] . $matches[1];

} else {

$link = $matches[1];

}

// convert url to SEF link

$link = sefRelToAbs( $link );

$link = sefRelToAbs( $url_1 ).$link; //// my fix

// reconstruct html output

$replace = 'href="'. $link .'"';

return $replace;

}

Works great, one minor flaw

This component is great , it installed easy and works superb....but like always with great things, this one also has one flaw in it..

All my templates i use have a "top of page"-button at the bottom of the page, after installing JoomSEF this button now returns to "home" instead of top.. still figuring it out..

Would be Good if it was not so Greedy

I installed this extension and liked the results.

Unfortunately, I noticed a decrease in speed on the site. "Not to worry" I thought, it's not to bad.

As this a new site and still under development, I was adding more features. The site gradually ground to a halt.

I contacted my ISP who told me that the MYSQL queries this extension was generating was using 80% of the server processing power. Not only did it crash my site, it brought down the server and the other 450 sites hosted there. In the end, I had to remove the component and find an alternative solution.

They also told me they had this problem before with another site using 404sef

Great Component

This does exactly what it says it does right out of the box! All you have to do is change your HTAccess file as per the instructions (uncomment a few lines of code that let's third party SEF components work with Joomla!) and you're away.

However, it also allows for further customisation, so URLs can be EXACTLY what you want them to be for each page, improving not only your site's exposure to search engines but also making things much more friendly for your visitors. Also helps to hide the fact that you are using Joomla! which you might want to do for security reasons.
