After several hours of work, I can finally say: It is very useful and works like it should, really waited for a an extension like that for years. I had over 13.000 tags on my site, now I have a little less ;-) Did work in Chrome, Firefox and even Safari with Joomla 3.8.

i have one more question


i want to remove category url from item url like WordPress

i mean

i want to make short or change my urls from


site.com/category/item


to

site.com/item



how can i do that?



tnx in advance

i thank you it works.

@solan

Create a new hidden menu (group). In there, add a new "menu item" of K2 Category type. When you create this menu item, simply add a name and the menu alias (e.g. "show"). Because this menu item is newly created and thus has a higher ID in the menu system, K2 will use it to replace /component/k2 to /show.

See how we utilize this K2 router trick in getk2.org. Notice the tag URLs in the blog for example: getk2.org/blog

You want to achieve this functionality, but do not want to install additional SEO extensions
Then you can only create a K2 TAG type menu item for each of your TAG tags

thanks for answer

but it is not what i meant.

Hope i understand it right.

Go to the "Parameters" of k2 -> than to section "Advanced" -> scroll down to "Advanced SEF Settings" -> "Enable advanced SEF for K2 URLs" should be "yes" -> type in "Prefix for tag URLs" your prefix for ex. tag-shop etc.

thank you

it works and it changed path to 3.8.3
//////

i have a another question

i want to have unique url for tag not many.
like this:

site.com/tag1

do have you any suggestion for this?

Hi,

here is the solution:

forum.joomla.de/index.php/Thread/4965-Router-Probleme-in-Joomla-3-8-4/?postID=32583#post32583

Its in german. If you have problems. I can translate it later.

hi
i want to remove

component/k2/

from

site.com/component/k2/tag

how can i do that or how can i change

site.com/component/k2/tag

to

site.com/tag ?

thank you

I know it is an old post, but maybe will be searching for an easy solution. I used the following method:

Go to Components->K2->Categories

Choose the leading category if you have one, or the one you wish to apply the effect to and double click on it.

Click on the Display options tab.

There are options for displaying leading items, main items, ... Each of these makes its own <div>, that has its own id and contains the selected number of articles for each. Now just type for example 5 in the Text box next to number of leading items. Then press Save and exit.

Depending on your theme, find an option to add some css to your template (either in Extensions->Templates->Styles ar directly add this line in your css file on your server). The line you have to add is the following:

#itemListLeading {display: none !important;}

What this does is disabling the display of an html tag with the id="itemListLeading", which means that effectively first 5 (note the number we input earlyer) items in choosen category (or all of them, if you made the setup on your leading category) will not be included in the finished html output. So with this method your first 5 items in a category item page can be displayed in a slider (or something else).

Note that this method will work only on category item pages (pages with the list of items for one category) and will not affect yout homepage or other side-, foot- or head-bars.

If you have any further questions regarding this method, simply pm me and I will try to help you (if I find the time).

Hi Krikor,

you mean: "Prefix for tag URLs"? its "shop"

ive used
But the modul is not displayed.

URL: sepa-bezahlen.de/component/k2/shop/Bosch.html -> modul not displayed

URL: sepa-bezahlen.de/shop/Bosch.html -> modul displayed

One question, what was the tags' prefix so I can check the previous links?

How could i display the module in the "K2_DISPLAYING_ITEMS_BY_TAG" view?

Add the task as well :P
JRequest::getCmd( 'task' ) == "tag"

Also it is "com_k2" and "itemlist"

Hi Krikor,

no other SEF extensions in use. Joomla SEF plugin active.

What ive realized is, that this issue happend after the joomla 3.8.4 update. Could this be the problem?

The k2 Advanced SEF is active and works.

See the Url:

sepa-bezahlen.de/shops/versandhaus/baur.html


Prefix for tag URLs is "shop"

The tag for ex. for #Bosch is: component/k2/shop/Bosch.html

the k2 Advanced SEF is working. In the past it was without the component/k2/

EDIT: The reason for my question is a module position.

If i want to display this module just in category view, not item view, im using: && JRequest::getCmd( 'option' )==com_k2 && JRequest::getCmd( 'view' )==itemlist

How could i display the module in the "K2_DISPLAYING_ITEMS_BY_TAG" view?

Hi,

if i display in "item view options -> Tags, ill see in the item view the tags with a link.

Im using the "Advanced SEF settings". For "Prefix for tag URLs" im using onlineshop:

The link looks like: /component/k2/onlineshop/xxx.html


How can i change /component/k2 to the menu alias?

In other project i works, but i dont know where to check.

Thx in advance

Hello,
I created a "Manager" user and gave him permissions to access the K2 administrative interface, but not to K2 users management and options. In the backend (from the left menu) this user can access articles, categories, tags, comments and media manager, while he has no access to usersmanagement and K2 parameters. However from the main joomla menu (Components -> K2) the same user has access to all K2 submenus, and even if Joomla shows the "no auth" notification, in fact the resources are displayed anyway (It seems like a bug, see screenshot below).
How can this situation be corrected?

I am struggling with this - when you say edit the category settings:

I went to components/K2/categories/parameters/layout & views

i am seeing

CSS & JavaScript Settings
Layout & view options for user (author) pages
Layout & view options for tag listings
Layout & view options for Search & Date listings

but nothing re category list settings?

where exactly do i set the category list to only show the title in list view?

From Ideal Extensions I have had this update : "iStoreLocator retrieves all contacts/locations via com_ajax component and it executes Content Plugins on one of the contact fields. For some reason unknown to me the K2 plugin adds <html prefix="og: ogp.me/ns# "> tag to the contact text field."

I have asked the Ideal Extensions developer if he has any more details and will update you when I have a response.

The Ideal Extensions Ideal Store Locator plugin generates a Google Map and displays contact locations in the specified category/categories on the map. From the last K2 update the contacts were not being displayed until either I commented out lines 758 to 763 in k2.php or until Ideal Extensions suggested the com_ajax edit.

I understand that the content to be displayed was being prefixed with the html and body tags and that caused the issue. The Ideal Extensions developer initially said " [ the K2 plugin] is adding the <html> and <body> tags and should not add such tags onContentPrepare event."

Joomla 3.8.3, Ideal Extensions Plugin Ideal Store Locator 3.8.0.

There is a conflict between the K2 Plugin (plugins/system/k2/k2.php) and this Ideal Extensions Ideal Store Locator plugin caused by the HTML prefix for the OpenGraph Meta Tags lines 739 to 767.

This has been fixed by the Ideal Extensions developer by editing Line 740 to:

if($application->isSite() && $params->get('facebookMetatags', 1) && $application->input->get('option') !== 'com_ajax')

Can this be included in the next K2 update?
