URL Rewrite (Joomla 2.5)

Good morning,

I would like to rewrite my URL in my Joomla 2.5.

Change this: http://www.idermo.es/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=119&Itemid=999

Into: http://www.idermo.es/custom

Is it possible with the htcaccess file?

Regards,

Thanks,

Solution

  • This is one of the basic joomla functions. You have to rename via ftp htaccess.txt to .htaccess in your joomla root directory and set:

    System -> Global Configuration -> Search Engine Friendly Urls: Yes
System -> Global Configuration -> Use Url Rewriting: Yes

    Then you have to connect your article into a menu item and set the alias to the value that your link want to be.

    Good Luck!
