Im trying to perform a redirect to a component's view

 <form role="form" action="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_rouf&view=front');  ?>">

Because SEF is enabled im getting redirected at :

/index.php/component/rouf/?Itemid=0

and i get The page isn't redirecting properly error.

I never user SEF before but i would like to keep it, so how i perform the redirects at the views when SEF is enabled ?

  • Is com_rouf a custom component you built?

The correct way to do that and to accomplish more complicated tasks is to add a router file in /components/com_rouf/router.php with a class that will manage your custom routing.

Take a look at the com_content/router.php to have an idea and I suggest you to read this article: https://docs.joomla.org/Supporting_SEF_URLs_in_your_component

Anyway if the page you're going to redirect is a menu item, add the Itemid parameter to the link with the related menu item id, for a simple fix.
