404 on Category View
Posted: 27 Sep 2013, 06:24
Hello,
I have SEF set on in joomla config and language switcher buttons for my site.
I have put "list of categories" in my menu. When I click it, it shows the categories alright.
But when I click into one of the categories (which works) and then try to switch the language, a 404 page is shown.
The correct link of the category is: http://mysite/index.php/en/menu_item_name/category/2-cat-name
But I can see the link my language button wants to go is: http://mysite/index.php/en/menu_item_name?view=category
I did try to add a "category" item in a hidden menu, it works for that given category but not the others. I think there should be a better method than adding every category into a hidden menu?
Similar problem happens when I click the "comment image" link for each image.
It seems that the correct SEF url can't be passed to the language switching buttons.
Grateful if anyone can help/advice on this~
