Remove/change part of SEF URLs

Hello!
How i can REMOVE "root" from links and title tab?
Im trying AceSEF, sh404sef... my hidden flexi menu have "content" alias - none working.

Any idea?

Normally, you cannot remove parts of the URL, but there are a couple of things you can do, please read this:
www.flexicontent.org/documentati ... -urls.html

"root" is probably the alias of some FLEXIcontent Joomla menu item, to see which one it is:
-- remove all segments of the stadard Joomla SEF URL like this:
http:/www.ddddommmain.com/root/
-- click enter and you will see which menu item is active
-- then visit the menu manager and change the alias of this menu item to something you like better.

Regards

It was problem with AceSEF plugin for Flexi.

and solution is ??? share for other user ?

I need the solution ...

I'm seeing this problem too.

Flexicontent version 2.0.0 RC9 (r1514)
Acesef 2.5.4 with flexicontent plugin 1.5.9

It is prepending "root" to the URLs, so that they become www.mysite.com/root/category1/category2/item

Some hints to find what is 'root':

First is root a menu item?

(i guess it is not a subfolder in your site)

Typing :

www.mysite.com/root/

what does it load?

if you search you menu items in backend, is there a menu item with alias root?

what is the default menu item of FLEXIcontent ?
can you find it in the list ... rename the alias from 'root' to something else

www.mysite.com/root/ gives a 404 (it's definitely not a sub folder)

I don't have any menu with alias "root"

The only thing that I can think of is that the old Flexicontent required you to set a "root" Joomla 1.5 Section, which all the Flexicontent categories were children of. That said, my Section was called "Site"...

Another clue is that Acesef also puts "ROOT" into the page meta title. So it becomes:

Category - ROOT - mysite.com

I have the same problem ((((

"root" in URL comes from table #__categories. First row in this table with ID 1 has alias "root". ItemId of this page is 101.

I have tried to play with all AceSef settings and with component code (administrator/components/com_acesef/extensions/com_flexicontent.php), in function "_getCategory" on line 257 when i change condition

while ($id > 0) {
to
while ($id > 1) {

it produces good URL's without word "root" at begening, but on top level they are not functional, only in the deep levels

Joomla 2.5.6, AceSef Free 2.5.4 and actual extension for Flexicontent (1.5.9)

********************************

I'm very said of that problem. Too many days i am trying to make nice URL's on big catalog. Native system is not perfect my urls looks like
/cat1/cat2/cat3/X-cat3/article (last category twice)

sh404sef was promising, but some categories good:
cat1/cat2/cat3/article
but some bad
cat3/article

And finaly this night...AceSEF...still "root" at begining of URL (((

DALI

Is there something relevant in the FLEXIcontent acesef plugin parameters?

Have you tried asking ACEsef author?
