TOPIC: VirtueMart SEF link to a questionnarire?

VirtueMart SEF link to a questionnarire? 12 years, 11 months ago #25428

Downlaod ID: (hidden) for VirtueMart extension

I am helping to move a large VirtueMart commercial website and we purchased JoomSEF 3 and the VirtueMart extension.

I am new to VirtueMart.

Joomla 1.5.23
VirtueMart 1.1.9

This forum showed me how to set up SEF URL's to access Memory-and-Cognition/View-all-products.html
as index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=118

Now I have a page with some links to questionaires that can't be found that look like this

www.naturalpathhealthcenter.com/index.ph...h-Health-Center.html

In this case, Customer-Care is NOT a VirtueMart Category, a Joomla Category, and I can't find it in VirtueMart.

This is probably simple, but I don't know how to set up a SEF URL to properly access the html file (there are also several questionaires access via similar syntax.

Can you please steer me in the right direction or give me an example? Also, where do I find these html files and file that references them.

Thanks!

Hi,
I don't quite understand your question. The SEF URL you've posted uses Joomla's standard SEF syntax. JoomSEF doesn't use the /index.php/ part in the SEF URL.
The easiest way to find the correct original non-SEF URL is to disable SEF on your website and just check how the link looks like.
There are no such HTML files, the whole idea of Joomla and SEF is, that articles are stored in database and SEF URLs are converted to correct parameters on the fly to find the correct article in database. You can read more about how the SEF URLs processing works in JoomSEF's documentation.

I'm sorry if I wasn't specific enough in explaining what I need.

With help from this forum, I did figure out how to create a SEF url that displays a list of products in a VirtueMart category.

Now I need to figure out how to create a SEF url to display a Joomla article. I did look at the articles and have identified the article ID's of the articles I want to display.

So, how to I specify a SEF url that will display an article (i.e. where id =78)

Thanks!

You can use the "index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=78" URL.
The easiest way to get the URL is probably to create a menu item for your article and check it's link.
