sh404SEF Plugin

[ritabaumann]

Is there a plugin for sh404SEF For the new component?  There is not one included in the new release of sh404SEF.

Rita -
We already include a router file for sh404SEF, but you also need to download and install the wordpress system plugin for Joomla. Please read the documentation to learn more about this.

I have the plugin installed - still no-go.  What version of sh404sef are you guys testing with? I have 2.2.4.734.

Can someone point me to this plugin?
I see link or path in the set-up doc.

Make sure once the plugin is installed, you enable it and follow the directions it gives you:

"WordPress system plugin. To make use of this plugin you will need to enter the URL segment to your blog into the Blog URL path parameter. For example, if the URL to your blog is http://example.com/blogs/, you will want to enter blogs."

If you don't do that, it will operate as though it is uninstalled.

To download the plugin:
1. Go here and log in if necessary https://www.corephp.com/members/clientarea.php?action=products
2. Click "Download" to the right of "Wordpress for Joomla!"
3. Click plugins, then select the system plugin.
4. Make sure the Wordpress system plugin runs before the sh404SEF plugin in the Plugin Manager

It STILL doesn't work?
Caveat #1: The Blog URL path for the plugin MUST match the menu item alias or it will operate as though your system plugin is not installed at all.  You can find your menu item in your Joomla Menu manager.  It will be the item with "Wordpress" as its type.  This can be modified in the Joomla Menu Manager.

Caveat #2 (not encountered very often): After configuring SH404SEF, sometimes the URL manager will cache "blog" (or whatever your blog URL path is) when it should be "blog/" so it will fail.  The trailing slash can make a big difference.  This can be changed in the URL manager in SH404SEF. Note: The URL parameter in the system plugin should not have a slash in it though.

Kindest regards,
Andy

I have installed the wordpress system plugin and changed the order in plugin manager to run the wordpress system plugin before the sh404sef system plugin. Now my site is always pointing  the home page when clicking any link from the site.

If you've already deleted your cache and verified there's no entry for Wordpress in the 404 manager in SH404SEF, please create a ticket and we will be able to assist you.

Kindest regards,
