Our website generates a URL with com_wrapper - here is an example.

http://www.ifootpath.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=39&walkID=4799

We have 652 of these and in the future it could be 1,000. I would like to generate a SEF Url Using the title of the page.

(I have sh404SEF installed)

Can this be done?

Many thanks

I had already implemented the suggestions made Max on the website when it was first published - e.g. \ Enabled Search Engine; Enabled Use URL rewriting; Renamed /htaccess.txt to /.htaccess - I have sef URLs for all other parts of my website but not those with com_wrapper URLs as mentioned in the original question....

  • SH404SEF uses the category / article structure to create the SEF URL. So in theory you should be able to create websitename/category/article-title

  • As I understand it these are not articles they are wrapper (iframe pages) so there is no article.

  • Yep, you are right. My bad. I don't really know, but I believe you are gonna have to write your own plugin. This might serve as an example github.com/ElectricEasel/gazebos/blob/master/components/… Alternatively, you could play around with some of the more advanced settings. I don't think they will help, but go to sh404sef ->control panel-> then click ->configuration. Then in General Section of the Main tab click on By Component and then browse down to Wrapper.

You can try use SEF in Joomla:

  • System >> Global Configuration;
  • Enable Search Engine;
  • Enable Use URL rewriting;
  • Rename yor /htaccess.txt to /.htaccess

enter image description here

  • I have already implemented all the things you suggest - other URLs have sef Urls - only this with the format with com_wrapper do not have sef URLs

  • @Jemetos can you update your post with what you tried and the result. It wasn't obvious in your original question.
