404 error viewing modal/detail pictures with SEO enabled

[ldwedari]

Hi.

After enabling SEO in Joomla when I click in the thumbnails to see the modal/detail window with the picture. The modal windows displays the error 404 Resource not Found. I've been reading other post in this forum but I have not been able to fix the problem with the instructions there. The gallery have a is linked in a menu item which is not published. If tried enabling and disabling mod_rewrite, in both cases SEF works but not the detail window. I've also notice that the link contains the word "detail" that apparently may cause problems, like in:
http://www.mysite.org/es/component/phoc ... =component
but even removing the word "detail" with firebug as a test I don't get it to work.
(Note: I have not put the real site name, the link won't work).

What can I do to get this working with SEO? I don't want to disable it.

Thanks for the help.

'That's the problem. You're probably using the plugin to display the images.

You need to have a published gallery menu item. You can publish this in a menu, from which the module isn't published.
The plugin then takes the seo from this menu item, but a user can't see the menu item on the website.

I don't understand. Does that mean I cannot put the {gallery...} code inside an article? How can images be displayed if not through the plugin?

Hi, it is about SEO, if means if you are using SEF, there needs to be some menu link to use the right Itemid. the code {phocagallery ... works normally but if you are using SEF and you have no menu link it can happen that some links will be not correctly displayed, see:
