Hello
I need to get the Category, Subcategory and SubSubCategory in Item url.
I created e K2Tool module as Category List (menu) but the pages have url like

mydomain.com/main-category/subsubcategory/item.html

it drops the subcategory name

you can check it here:
www.archiviosonoro.org/marche/archivio/3-raccolta-esempio/2-001-pietrapertosa.html

the K2Tool module is here:
www.archiviosonoro.org/marche/mappa-dell-archivio.html

is it possible to fix it?

I think the best way to achieve this would be by mapping these categories into your menu.

So every time I add a category, I must add the menu item manually?

Yes since you need custom URLs you need to build them using menu links. Alternatively you can search for a SEF extension doing this.

using category/subcategory/subsubcategory/item in my opinion is not a custom url, it should be the default/core url; anyway I will check for SEF plugin. Any suggestion?
Thanks

sh404sef will do this, but only one subcategory is allowed.
I think AceSEF supports K2 but you will have to double check this with the extension's developer.

this seems to work right:

www.sakic.net/forum/sef-advance/sef-advance-extension-for-k2/
The regular K2 SEF URLs are right now like:
Animals (category): http://domain/animals
Birds (subcategory): http://domain/animals/itemlist/category/4-birds
Eagle (item): http://domain/animals/item/3-eagle
Hawk (item): http://domain/animals/item/4-hawk

With the new extension for SEF Advance you get:
Animals (category): http://domain/animals/
Birds (subcategory): http://domain/animals/birds/
Eagle (item): http://domain/animals/birds/eagle/
Hawk (item): http://domain/animals/birds/hawk/

It works for unlimited category depth. As you can see there are no IDs nor strange words in the URLs and they are far more logical reflecting your content structure. The other K2 views are also covered with improved URLs.

I know this is an old topic but I would love to see this feature built into K2. I think it is a fairly standard feature nowadays and should not required someone to manually build the categories using the menu system, I have 1000 categories).

Mosets tree has this inbuilt and it is very useful

Can this be added as a feature request (possibly after the new Joomla Router is deployed)

Thanks
