Changing urls to items was created by Egil Hansen
I've had a Joomla 1.5 site with K2 working faithfully for many years until my hosting provide shut it down saying I needed to upgrade to 2.5.

I have managed to do this but the urls to my K2 items have changed in 2.5.

This is not so good, since I have many manual links to my items.

In Joomla 1.5 the link to a K2 item was:

www.mysite.com/www/gasspeiser/k2-gasspeiser/item/16-panorama38

But this link does not work in Joomla 2.5.

However this link does work:

www.mysite.com/www/component/k2/item/16-panorama38

Is there a simple way I can make the first method working? Would save me a lot of work...

Thanks for all help!

You could write a little php program to alter the mysql database.

Hello Egil,

You have to properly set up your menus. gasspeiser/k2-gasspeiser/ are both inherited from menu items.

Once you setup the same menu tree you will have identical URLs
