Some Notes (on SEF in a subdirectory)
'Search Engine Friendly URL's' to 'Yes' AND 'Use Apache mod_rewrite' to 'No' gives menu relative hyperlinks without "/" like Home
Search Engine Friendly URL's to 'Yes' AND Use Apache mod_rewrite 'Yes' gives menu relative hyperlinks with "/" like Home
Apache mod_rewrite setting to 'Yes' is the variable $sef_rewrite = '1'; in configuration.php
so .....
Here's a hack I just got to work for mod_rewrite for a site in a subdirectory.
added else around line 321 in includes/application.php:
Code: Select all
$options['mode'] = $this->getCfg('sef');
if(!$this->getCfg('sef_rewrite')) {
$options['prefix'] = 'index.php';
}
else { // IS SEF_REWRITE gc mod Sept 12
$options['prefix'] = '.';
}
