Hello,


I have Joomla! 2.5.4 and VM 2.0.6

When I create a category for example "Рокли" the Category name is "Рокли" and the SEF Alias is "Rokli" when I hit the save button the sef alias automatically changes to rokli2012-06-21-06-13-37_

It is the same if both Category name and SEF alias are changed to "Rokli"

I want the link looks like - site/category name/product name now it looks like this http://atraktivna.com/component/virtuemart/rokli2012-06-21-06-13-37/korna-detail?Itemid=0

Joomla settings - Search Engine Friendly URLs and Use URL rewriting are enabled



EDIT: I`ve noticed that if I change Sef alias from "Rokli" to "Roklite"  the problem fixes.

But still my products links are like this http://atraktivna.com/component/virtuemart/roklite/korna-detail?Itemid=0

You can make a local copy of your website and check if the latest test version 2.0.7g is solving the url problem. There has been a bug fix recently, but I don't know if that bug was existing in 2.0.6 already. (Might be that the SEF URL bug was only in early 2.0.7 versions)
Another possibility is that the router doesn't like the (non-standard) GA esport template menu. You can try do set up a normal Joomla menu for your VM2 shop and categories in order to find out if the GA menu causes this problem.

It is the same with other templates.

Joomla will add a random # to alias WHEN there is an alias in the system already matching it
