In order to use Joomla's built in SEF Urls feature, you must first enable it. To do so, go to the backend of the site (/administrator) and go to the "Site" tab and select "Global Configuration."
On that page you will see the following:
Set the "Search Engine Friendly URLs" to Yes and the "Use Apache mod_rewrite" to Yes.
You will next need to rename the htaccess.txt file in your root directory to .htaccess as seen below:
That is all there is too it. Joomla will now automatically change all your standard dynamic URLs in your content items to more friendly URLs.

Thanks :) Thanks for this tutorial. I was having difficulty with the sef, and your tutorial just made me realize what I was doing wrong. I accidently left out the dot in front of the .htaccess file when renaming it. Thanks  |
