Title: Category Path with subfolders
Post by: UweS on 30.07.2018 09:02:52
Hello!

We use jdownloads with jsitemap Pro and the plugin works well. However, there is still a problem with the generation of the sitemap. The sitemap generates the paths like this:

URL/menu item/maincategory/category/ID-title That looks like the logical path.

jDownloads generates (for some time now) the paths without the main directory: URL/menu item/category/ID-title.

Is there a posibility to configure this in jdownloads? I think logical hierarchies would actually make sense.

I think i have found the reason:

I have set submenu items to categories with "show only one category". The name of the menu item is not considered at the routing of internal links.



https://www.csm.de/en/downloads/downloads-datasheets then click on subfolder and the structure is gone.

Hi
Yes you have solved the 'challenge'.  You have a nice site!
The bread crumbs module generally shows the same 'path' as the Site Map (I could not find your site map!)
Listing a single Category just uses that Menu item.But I did notice that listing a single Download is not so good!

Thank you. The sitemap is only xml. https://www.csm.de/index.php?option=com_jmap&view=sitemap&format=hreflang&lang=en

Should this be a feature request?

If there is a Menu item for a category > include it to assemble the file URL.

Yes would be a good time for a feature request as we are working on a new major release for later this year - main aim is inclusion of latest Joomla!  features including fields and removal of ids in links.As this gets towards being stable/usable we will look at all the recent feature requests.
