Hi Thanks for your reply,

I already have 2.6.5 version in my CMS, also i did job as explained in Blog post

"In K2 v2.6.5 we've made this process even simpler. All you need to do is simply create a new menu in Joomla! (call it "Hidden" as it won't be directly called from any module) and in there create a K2 menu item pointing to all categories. Give this menu item a nice alias, e.g. "show" (as we also do here on getk2.org). If you do this, K2 is now able to "assign" this menu item as "root" for all such "menu orphan" K2 content such as tags, users, search and date listings."

But still its not working, old url is showing 404 error.

Looking forward your help.

regards

I think that the easiest solution is to use .htaccess to redirect old url's to new ones. I have search and test and the solution could be to add in your .htaccess file (in the root of your site) next line:

RewriteRule ^yourcategory/item/(.*) /yourcategory/$1 [R=301,L,QSA]

Of course, you have to change "yourcategory" with all the categories you have.

I don´t know how to do that for all the urls containing item in order to redirect to correct url without use the category. If any expert in apache can solve it, it would be perfect.

Of course, this is a solution using apache and not joomla. I don´t know if joomlaworks will implement any solution in a future upgrade
