The SEF Test plugin allows you to turn on and off SEF from the URL for your own session, without changing the Global Configuration options. It's a very simple tool for:
- testing SEF out on a production site with SEF disabled
- fetching non-SEF URLs on a SEF-enabled site
Installation
The minimum requirements for this plugin are Joomla!TM 1.5.7 and PHP 5.
- To install this plugin, download it from the download-section on this site to your computer.
- Then install the ZIP file from within the Joomla! Administrator as a regular extension.
- Next go to the Plugin Manager to enable this system-plugin. It is listed as "System - SEF Test".
Usage
To disable SEF add "sef=0" to the URL:
/home/news/joomla-license?sef=0
/?sef=0
To enable SEF add "sef=1" to the URL:
/?sef=1
/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3&Itemid=4&sef=1
To reset the SEF Test, enter "sef=-1" or close your browser.
