Support for jDownloads 3 has been ended
Since 17 August 2023 Joomla.org has discontinued support for Joomla 3.x. Therefore, we will no longer offer official support for our Joomla 3 jDownloads version 3.9.x from January 2024.
Please update your website to the latest Joomla version (Joomla 4 or Joomla 5) as soon as possible. Afterwards, please update jDownloads to the latest published version. The longer you delay, the more difficult the upgrade process for your website is likely to be.

Hi

While configuring jDownloads I found the SEF links to be confusing and not logical. I do not fully understand the joomla rounter.  :-\

Issue
the SEF links below have the operators (send, summary) put at the begining of the SEF and logically they should be at the end

What there are now

https://quantumwarp.com/downloads/send/12-onboard-obd-computer/8-bmw-obc-wiring-install-instructions


what they should be

https://quantumwarp.com/downloads/12-onboard-obd-computer/8-bmw-obc-wiring-install-instructions/send


What I would like

Can these 'operators' be put at the end of the SEF. This makes more sense because you are going deeper down the rabbit hole or further down a folder structure.

And obviously any other like this I have not mentioned (if they exist)

Thanks

Hi
The SEF structure is not to do with jDownloads but is a Joomla 'challenge'.
Presently Joomla! requires that the ids are included.  We understand that is shortly to change in Joomla!

I cannot answer 'It is the way that Joomla! does it' because I am not an expert. But I do believe that you can alter any part of the URL by altering the router.php. I think it is more logical to put these things at the end and they look nicer.  :)

Thanks colin

Hi
We need to conform with Joomla! ways.  But Joomla! are changing.
