			<description><![CDATA[I have written a small code (router.php) to be used for Virtuemart that converts your URL to SEF mode without installing any third party SEF component. You can check the detauls here: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension-specific/virtuemart-extensions/7512/details]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Thomas You're right to an extent, but Shumisha is right also. The key problem with VM is that its a large and complex project being handled by a relatively small team. They need more hands on board to keep the project growing and improving. Shumisha is right - hes working to overcome some coding problems in VM and its addons. The older versions of SEF components did used to pile up 1000s of links in the database table until the site almost ground to a halt. Some components such as SEF Advance solve this by not storing the URLs but only caching them. He elegantly outlines the solution he uses in sh404SEF above.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Besides, the issue mentionned here has nothing to do with SEF tools ! it is a VM issue, that may be solved through using a SEF components ;-) Regards]]></description>

			<title>Not so bad</title>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Thomas, Fortunately, I trust it's been some time since you checked out the SEF tools and things are not so bad these days. Can't talk for the other, but sh404SEF takes some simple steps to avoid what Steve describes above. In such cases, there will be only one URL stored in the DB and in the URL disk cache. There may still be thousands of duplicate entries in DB (though you can decide through backend param whether you want to store them or not), but they all come from Itemid not being the same! Regards]]></description>

			<title>Whats the (real) Solution?</title>
			<link>http://www.alledia.com/blog/virtuemart/virtuemart-seo-1-beware-of-the-modules/#comment-5458</link>
			<description><![CDATA[First: the problem is the stupid way the SEF-tools (as far as i know them) store the real URLs. They just take the string and put it in the DB. Then, off course, any difference in the string will not match the entry. The SEF-tools have lots of more or less usefull functions. But none of them has a good database-design. It is not so hard (with a little bit of SQL-knowledge) to create a db-structure that stores every parameter and the parameter-name in separate fields. With this structure, the order of the parameters doesn't matter. Component specific plugins could also manage how missing parameters are handled (very useful for virtuemart!). Best of all would off course be a htaccess-solution, but this would require a completely different component-management in joomla. I have written a pure htaccess-sef for sites that don't use a lot of different components. Unfortunately this solution has to be adjusted for each installed component. But it works - faster and cleaner than all sef-tools i have tried yet. I'm really tired of sef-tables with thousands of duplicate entries when there are a lot of content-items or vm-products. They are slowly and hard to manage (and produce ugly urls when thy start to count the numbers up...).]]></description>
