Hey Guys,

i hope someone can help me with this problem:

i'm trying to get the Article Alias removed from the URL.
Even though i turned off this feature in the K2 settings, the Alias is still in the URL.

so, it looks like this
mypage.xx/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=3:testeintrag-2&Itemid=101

but it should look like this

mypage.xx/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=3&Itemid=101

Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
And while i'm at it:

I have a script that "reads out" (i hope this is the right term) the Username and the Article ID and writes those values into the Database.
Problem is: The Value of the Field "Article ID" is always "0".
Is this because of the Alias in the URL? Or am i just scripting something wrong?

Here is a part of the Script



function generateArrayField($field,$type,$label='',$value=false)
{
$arr=array();
$arr=$field;
$arr=$type;
$arr=$label;
if ('user_id'==$field) $arr=$this->getUserData('id');
elseif ('user_name'==$field) $arr=$this->getUserData('name');
elseif ('user_email'==$field) $arr=$this->getUserData('email');
elseif ('article_id'==$field) $arr=$this->getArticleData('id');
elseif ('article_title'==$field) $arr=$this->getArticleData('title');
else $arr=$value;
$this->arrFields[]=$arr;
}

I'd be really happy if someone could help me out
(And sorry for my bad english)

Cheers

Hi, I have the same question. How can I remove the article alias from the URL?

I have switched off the option "Use the item title alias" under the SEO section - but that did not help.

Hello,

Can you give me an example of your current URLs?
Are you using any other SEO/SEF extensions?

Hi,

My URL looks the same as the person asking above me.

I would like to make it look like this

I don't have any SEO extensions.

thanks,
Alex

If you want to use this you need to enable SEF urls.
The advanced SEF url settings only work with sef urls.

Hi,

I just tried that but the URL now looks like:

I don't want that.

thanks,
Alex

So what do you want?
You wanted to remove the alias from the URL.
This url has no alias in the URL.

As I said earlier:

I want to make the URL look like this

thanks

Yes. This is not possible as I previously posted

OK - Thank you
