How to make URLs in Joomla search engine friendly
Posted by Anthony, under Tutorials1) Login to your FTP.
2) Find htaccess.txt file (normally in public_html folder) and rename it to .htaccess
3) Go to Joomla! admin panel => Global Configuration => Site
4) Change select yes to all three SEO options. The action of the three parameters is as follows:
-
- Search Engine Friendly URLs. Converts the URLs from the native Joomla! format to the SEF format.
- Use Apache mod_rewrite. Uses the Apache “mod_rewrite” function to eliminate the “index.php” portion of the URL. If you don’t want to use mod_rewrite, set this to “No” and don’t rename the htaccess.txt. The SEF URLs feature will still work. The only difference is that you will see “index.php” in the URL, for example,
http://www.yoursite.org/index.php/faq.html. - Add suffix to URLs. Adds “.html” to the end of URLs.
Done! Now your site will have search engine friendly URLs.
Enjoy!
