SEF and non-SEF URLs in Joomla RootPosted by Georg in Untagged   |
|
It's an important aspect of web development to have humane friendly, and googlebot friendly for that matter. Joomla 1.5 and later is having a core SEF setting. There's also the very well know sh404SEF third party component with so many extended features for the picky ones. No news to Joomla people, right? Right!
How about when you have to insert some monitoring application of sorts, unrelated to Joomla, yet instrumentally residing inside the Joomla root directory. Yes, that one and the same directory where the Apache web server will execute its mod_rewrite (the default LAMP based for-Joomla sef engine). And what about your externally functioning but internally nesting application will have a hard time returning the expected results when Joomla SEF setting is active?
Comes the .htaccess file and the following new line:
rewriteRule ^no_rewrite/subdir/subsubdir - [L]
Add the new line above this line:
RewriteEngine On
Save and you're saving yourself the conflicting hassle of using non-sef-url compatible applications nested inside your Joomla root directory.
