I bought Easyblog and imported a lot of my old blogs into Easyblog. My old blogs have this kind of url's: http://www.domain.com/title-of-the-blog

How can I arrange these kind of url's? In the SEO settings a custom url always start with http://www.domain.com/menu/title-of-blog

It is very important to fix this for my old links.

Thanks.
This is the solution:

Add at line 89 of the file /components/com_easyblog/sef_ext/com_easyblog.php this: //

like:

// $title[] = $easyblogName;

This is working for me.

hi Peter Drewes,

So you expected this URL format right ? http://www.domain.com/title-of-the-blog

Can you provide us with your joomla backend and FTP access so we can better have a look?

Hi Peter Drewes,

Sorry for late reply to this,
I've checked in your menu structure, I do not know why you assign your Easyblog frontpage layout only Superuser can access.

By the way, I already help you configured correctly with your Easyblog SEO setting, what you need to do is set your "Easyblog frontpage layout" menu item to default page, so when you access with your blog entry, it will be show this format -> http://www.domain.com/title-of-the-blog

Hope this help.

Thanks for your answer and help. Only superuser can acces because the site is temporarly offline for construction.

I don't want easyblog as homepage.. Is it possible to get these url's even it's under /blog ?

Hello Peter,

Unfortunately it is not possible to formatting the url as domain.com/title if the easyblog is not set as the homepage. The only possible seo setting would be domain.com/blog/title.

Hope these can clarify the issue

Hello Peter,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

Unfortunately it is not possible to achieve it unless you set your easyblog as your main homepage. However there is an alternative for that. You can use joomla 3rd party sef components called sh404sef in order to achieve the url that you want

I bought that component. How turn off the SEO settings of Easyblog. How do I create these url's automatic? Does Easyblog have a sh404SEF plugin?

Thanks
