how to remove "item" from k2 url was created by M@tin
I just want to know how to solve this K2 SEO problem. I want to make this site links from:

original: www.mydomain.com/category/item/1-seo-problem.html

to this one: www.mydomain.com/category/seo-problem.html
or www.mydomain.com/seo-problem.html

Can I do that? I want to remove the word "ITEM " and also the article ID which is 1.

thanks a ton in advance.

The quick and dirty way is to create a menu item in Joomla TO that K2 category and then create submenus pointing to specific items. If you want to do this for all items in K2, you should have a look at a SEF extension like sh404SEF, MijoSEF, AceSEF, ArtioSEF etc.

Hey Fotis,

If we do have shsef404, how would we remove "item" in the url?

Is it a long process for each item?.....or is there a way to make it so that "item" will be automatically removed.

Thanks!

Hi
I've the same problem! :(
Why no one answers this question in any site?! Is it impossible?!
Why K2 doesn't solve this?!

Sh404sef automatically renames the URL to a friendly URL .
So once installed it will change every thing for you with out you doing any thing.It makes your URL easy to read for google.
Sh404sef is great but can be a pain to configure as may conflict with 3 rd party modules. So make certain you test it on a test server first before going live.
Hope that makes sense

I have used sh404sef and yes it does remove the item prefix but the duplicate url / module problem causes way more headaches, I ended up doing the method suggested by Fotis Evangelou, which also makes assigning modules to menu items, much more precise.

Yes, you can with Joomla!3 and latest version of K2.


Login into Joomla! 3 Administration Console
Click on Components>>K2
Click on Parameters
Click on Advanced tab
Enable advanced SEF for K2 URLs and make your settings as attached below.
