Disable SEF just for one IP

17 years 4 months ago #1007 by netfly
Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible for you Emir to add a function in the next version to be able to disable the SEF only for the IP of the admin; exactly like the debug function in several component.
Actually, I'm building a site with a lot of internal links in every page. For obvious reasons, I prefer to build the internal links with joomla default links. In this case I must to turn off the SEF Adavance every time. It'd be a very cool function to add  ;)

Thanks

If I understand correctly you would like to be able to switch off SEF completely (both built-in SEF and SEF Advance) for a particular IP.

I am concerned that making this feature would confuse users. The only place to switch SEF on and off is main configuration (configuration.php file). Doing an override in SEF Advance to force switch off would surely confuse unexperienced users as the where to turn on/off which SEF.

There is an easy way to achieve what you want though.
Put this code in your configuration.php:
if ($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']=='123.123.123.123') {
  $mosConfig_sef = '0';
} else {
  $mosConfig_sef = '1';
}
Change 123.123.123.123 to your IP.

YES! it's exactly what I need to build internal links! I will use this code tomorrow when I will come back to create more pages. It's very important to have SEF Advance turned ON all the time because Googlebot and other bots visit my site several times a day.

You understood very well my bad english  :D Thanks!
