This extension was easy to install and works great. Highly recommend.
I spent much time trying to configure SEF friendly URLs, and this component turned out to be the most intuitive. It automatically configured my .htaccess folder, and the documentation is quite thorough.

Buggy as hell



Posted on 28 December 2009
I've tried several versions all brought me to a complete site restoration from backup. Everytime u file an issue on their "Support board" You get an automated answer "We'll fix it in next release". Like that has ever been done...
Owner's reply: Ehm, an automated answer? I really do not think so, how did you get this idea?

And that it is buggy? I cannot claim it is 100% bugless, no software is. We are still improving it. However I am not aware of any serious bugs. Maybe it was just configuration problem?

Anyway, saying something is buggy without saying how/why or giving any other argumentation is meaningless as equals just throwing a dirt on somebody. For sure that does not help other users to maky any relevant opinion neither it helps us to possibly improve something.

We appreciate any feedback, both negative and possitive as it helps us make the product better, but I have to note that feedback as yours is completely useless.

So-so...

Mark "C"... It is simple to work with it and it makes its work, BUT:



* many plugins for it are paid

* many free plugins are... hm... bad...



I thank authors a lot for their work, but I still prefer sh404SEF.



But! For simple sites without forums, directories but with lots of articles and pages this plugin is MUST-HAVE!

Great Component

This is about the only non-commercial SEF component that works properly. I've tried AceSEF but had issues(will mention in AceSEF review).



I don't know why people are complaining about spam links. Just about every open software has a courtesy link back to the author's site. Personally I didn't like the way it was situated.



I found where the link code was and modified it, however, I didn't remove it. The only changes I made was:



1.) Link to Artio site is centered instead of left-aligned.



2.) Link to Artio site now opens in a new window(_blank) when clicked.



As for people claiming their site is broken. If you manually set a URL to yoursite.com/coolpage.html (especially if a custom URL) and then you uninstall whatever SEF component you are using then that link will no longer exist. Or, if in articles and so forth are linking to the SEF URL and uninstall the SEF component then same as before, links no long exist.

best sef ever

without any doubt, this is the best sef i ever use.
I recently needed a solution for custom urls for our site, and artio joomsef proved to be a good solution.



We had some problems with some linking, but after posting on their support forums, it got answered immediately. Worth paying the cost imo.

Good and Bad

ARTIO JoomSEF is a really good programme and very useful. It also does help with improving SEO. A couple suggestions however.

Artio does not like/irreparably alters my website when I uninstall. If you are wanting to try this program beware that you may not be able to remove it. (NB. This may just be I am doing something wrong. however when I uninstalled I got nothing but 404 errors...)

2nd Whilst I completely agree that if you like something you should pay for it. The link hopefully advertises to potential new software buyers. Is it possible that the advert be less intrusive??? Perhaps at the footer? Most people are commenting that it appears to be 'plastered' and having used it there is only one link on every page though this is a very visible link that may intrude on a website.



Very good module. And definitely worth paying for which would alleviate all of the negative concerns so far commented on.

Great Work

This has been a great extension. The free version has been used on several sites without issue.

Solved my problem



Posted on 04 November 2009
Well, all I can say is that it solved my problem straight away. I needed to implement Custom Properties by SolidState for a site I maintain. There were issues with SEF. I tried the other popular tool but to no avail.



I had my problem solved in less than 1/2 hour
