Help! My site has fallen and it can't get up!

    • Something very strange is going on with my Affinity theme site. I haven't made many changes and yet all of my links are now broken. Just click on any link and you'll see what I mean.

      If someone has the chance to take a look at it and possibly divine the problem by looking at the URL's I would be most grateful!

      Thank you in advance for your time!

    • Well, ask a dumb question... as it turns out I changed my global prefs to user-friendly URLS, which threw everything out of whack.

      But one dumb question leads to another... Does anyone know how I would be able to change to user-friendly URL's and keep my links? Is there something I can do on a global scale, or do I have to manually change the URL of every article?

      Thanks again!

    • Basic Core SEF:

      If joomla is in the root; htdocs, or public_html...

      In Global Configurations, Search Engine Friendly URLs Yes, Use Apache mod_rewrite Yes, Add suffix to URLs No.

      Change htaccess.txt to .htaccess.

      If it’s in a folder, you need to change the # RewriteBase / to reflect the path of your site.

      Change:

      # RewriteBase /

      to:

      RewriteBase /(the name of the folder joomla is in)

      If that doesn't work, search or post here:

      forum.joomla.org/viewforum.php?f=544

      If you are using a 3rd part component, contact the developer.

    • No problem...

      The title of your post made me laugh!

      (It reminded me of a TV commercial from about 20 years ago.)
    • Thanks,
