Update K2 URLs after migration to Joomla 3 was created by NUNO ALEXANDRE NOGUEIRA
Hello,
I've just migrated to Joomla 3 and my K2 URLs are returning 404's.
Before the migration this was an example of a correct URL: URL
After the migration, this page opens with this URL: URL
So, the category is now behind thepart of the URL.
It is very important, for SEF reasons, to preserve the old URL structure. I had the following line in .htaccess to force all K2 items to that structure:
How can I bring this URL structure back?
Help please!

RewriteRule ^.+/item/(.+)$ /item/$1 [R=301,L]
How can I bring this URL structure back?
Help please!

Hello,
You need to setup the Advanced SEF Settings.
They are located under K2's Advanced settings.

Hello,
Thank you so much for your quick answer!
I've now got the following settings (see attachment)

But still can't remove the category name of the URL. That is, transform this:
www.portal-gestao.com/slideshow/item/7687-o-que-significa-mass-customization.html
Into this:
www.portal-gestao.com/item/7687-o-que-significa-mass-customization.html

If this www.portal-gestao.com/slideshow is a menu item, then you cannot remove the menu item's prefix.

Ok, is that new in Joomla 3?
I created a top-level menu item with all the categories and alias item
It solved the problem, I believe...
Thank you very much for your support!

You 're welcome Nuno.
