I bought and downloaded com_sh404sef2_2.2.4.955 today and installed it on a life site. I just tried it out shortly by activating the user-friendly URLs. The URL were all re-written nicely. But all my Forms of the component RS-Form got corrupted. They are either no longer accessible (Error 500) or the CAPTCHA is truncated.

I deactivated and uninstalled sh404sef but the Forms are still corrupted. sh404sef must have a problem with my RS!Form component 1.2.0.

Are they any issues known in regards to sh404sef?

Any feedback is appreciated.

I am also use sh404sef and all my pages now use some RsForm meta descriptions and meta keywords ... instead of the ones I had defined in the article manager! I can override this by setting the meta tags manually in sh404sef, but basically it means I have to redo it for every URL. It would be nice if RsForm Pro wouldn't add its meta tags to every page!

Using RS Form Pro and turning Sh404sef on I discovered that the captcha letters would not longer display. Had to remove captcha.

I managed to fix this by adding the following code to the beginning of the sh404sef plugin file (components/com_rsform/sef_ext/com_rsform.php) right after the "standard plugin initialization function" code block.

Code:

if(isset($task) && $task=='captcha') {
$dosef = false;
return;
}


It seems that the urls for the captcha images are being generated as rsform views but the plugin was neither handling rewriting for those urls, nor ignoring them altogether. I opted to ignore for the time being.

Just wanted to post a quick note to say thanks for this answer - it gave me enough to go on to get the ajaxValidation working too. Great tip.

How did you get it to work ?

I tried just about everything and the ajax validation is not working when sh404sef is turned on

Thanks in advance.
