The Joomla! Forum ™

Hello,
I am using 2.5.1 now.
When edit article using TinyMCE from the control panel, insert article link using "Article" button located under text-input-area.
I expect below:
.....theme/topic/person.html
but result now:
.....component/content/article.html?id=30
Global SEFsettings ON ON ON OFF.
Maybe it is caused by missing 'catid=**' in html source url.
It isn't happen at ver. 1.7.3.
Is it problem only for me? Does anyone know the way of fix?

Finally I found the point of the problem.

When you are going to insert the article link by pushing button "Article" in tinyMCE editor, joomla displays modal-window to select the article.
In ver.250 updated from ver.173, "catid"infomation disappear from the html-source of article link because of changing of core program below.

joomla/administrator/composents/com_content/views/articles/tmpl/modal.php

--- ver.1.7.3 (line 91)
<td>
<a class="pointer" onclick="if (window.parent) window.parent.<?php echo $this->escape($function);?>('<?php echo $item->id; ?>', '<?php echo $this->escape(addslashes($item->title)); ?>', '<?php echo $this->escape($item->catid); ?>');">
<?php echo $this->escape($item->title); ?></a>
</td>
---

--- ver.2.5.2 (line 96)
<td>
<a class="pointer" onclick="if (window.parent) window.parent.<?php echo $this->escape($function);?>('<?php echo $item->id; ?>', '<?php echo $this->escape(addslashes($item->title)); ?>', '<?php echo $this->escape($item->catid); ?>', null, '<?php echo $this->escape(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($item->id)); ?>');">
<?php echo $this->escape($item->title); ?></a>
</td>

Stay default, ContentHelperRoute which is located in "joomla/compenents/com_content/helpers/route.php" doesn't return infomation of " catid=* ". Sometimes it causes 404 not found.

The created article link is displayed at frontend article, as below:
http://localhost/joomla/component/conte ... html?id=26

I fixed the problem by adding ",$item->catid" to the ContenHelperRoute value as below:
--- After change ver.2.5.2 (line 96)
<td>
<a class="pointer" onclick="if (window.parent) window.parent.<?php echo $this->escape($function);?>('<?php echo $item->id; ?>', '<?php echo $this->escape(addslashes($item->title)); ?>', '<?php echo $this->escape($item->catid); ?>', null, '<?php echo $this->escape(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute($item->id,$item->catid)); ?>');">
<?php echo $this->escape($item->title); ?></a>
</td>
---

The created article link is displayed at frontend article, SEO friendly, maybe without "Article" header as below:

http://localhost/joomla/books/forchild/ ... houte.html


If you would like to remove '26-'part, you need to create menu item of the single article.
It is another problem and you can find the topic related this searching the global question thread by the words "remove 'Articles' header".

I hope the core programing team create patch for　this problem.
Since I am not good at English and the programing, I have little confidence.
