Bulk adding all K2 items to a hidden menu? was created by Astrid Pedersen
Hi, I am pretty new to K2 and still learning, so please bear with me :-)

I recently imported all my Joomla! articles into K2 as this is the system I now will be using. I used to have a hidden menu to which I added every article when creating it, in order to have nice SEF urls. This, however, did not translate to my new K2 configuration.

Is there any way I can bulk add all my K2 items to a hidden menu, so that I can still have the nice urls? Or is there another way to do this?

Thank you :-)

I do not think that there is a way to do this except manually, but I do not think that you need it as well.

Map each K2 category into a menu item and then you can use K2's advanced SEF functions which are located under K2's parameters.

Hi Krikor,

thank you for your quick reply.

It does, however, not really work as intended. Like for instance, here is a K2 element on my test page:

steffenjungersen.anansi.dk/koncertanmeldelser/and-the-party-came-to-copenhell

and here it is on the original page, where I every time I created an article added it to a hidden menu:

steffenjungersen.dk/and-the-party-came-to-copenhell

I don't know how to remove the "koncertanmeldelser" in the link without adding the item to the root of the menu. Is this even possible or do I have to trawl through all the articles/items again in order to add each one to the hidden menu?

Best, Aztrid

If you do not have many articles then you have to add them to your hidden menu.
If on the other you constantly add articles you need to find an extension like sh404sef which does this automatically without the need to add them to a menu item.
