Thank you for stopping to read about my problem.
I would like to add the following information so that you can have a better understanding of my installation;
In Global Config;
- SEF url is set to YES. Apache mod_rewrite is configured and working and .htaccess file is in place and working
- use URL rewriting also set to yes
So, without JoomSEF installed, I actually have neat and tidy SEF urls which work correctly from the menu BUT when I drill down to an article, it throws up the nasty category ID and article ID. I do not want these numbers displayed in my urls.
So, I decided to create a custom URL in JoomSEF. Seemed like a good idea and it worked for that menu item. HOWEVER every other menu item that is displaying either Featured Item(s) is now displaying the custom URL.
I do not get this... the JoomSEF appears to be solid (no errors) but this behavior is driving me crazy.
Other types of menu items (maps, admin, login etc) are uneffected....
Why would all menu items which display *** featured items *** be affected like this?
I am sure there is probably a very simple solution but I just cant seem to see it.
Any help, suggestions, most welcome.
Regards,
John
