Hi there

I have two questions:

(1) Will ReDJ be compatible with Joomla 3.5 / PHP 7 combination?

(2) We use search engine friendly URLs on our website. However non SEF urls will still work. For example lets say:
the SEF URL is www.blog.com/hello-world that URL can still be accessed using the article ID number for 'hello-world' (in this example '73') such as
index.php?option=com_content&view=article&layout=edit&id=73 or any number of variables such as
56index.php?option=com_content&view=article&layout=edit&id=73 OR
?option=com_content&view=article&layout=edit&id=73

Is it possible to set up a "catch all" type redirect that will route any non-SEF URL for a particular article number to the SEF URL for that article?

Thank you very much for any help you can give with the above.

Hi Luigi

(1) Good to hear that ReDJ will work with PHP 7.

(2) Non-SEF URLs are not a big problem for our current website but it remains a minor irritation that search engines sometimes index them as well as the SEF URLs. I will look into routing options.

All the best and thank you for providing a great extension. We have used it for several years.

Hi Luigi

Yes I agree this has always been a problem for Joomla and no doubt other CMS platforms. It is obviously not an easy issue to overcome otherwise it would likely already have been implemented within the Joomla core or extension developers such as yourself would have provided a solution.

The first website we did suffered greatly from non-SEF URLs but since then we have managed to eliminate most of them although they do crop up from time to time.
