Greetings. I am having some degree of difficulty with the Agency Module navigation. When clicking on Add new Add from the COntrol Panel I am getting a 404 error from this link: https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/ads/adagencyAds.html
If I access the same link through the AD option - get this link instead, which is correct: https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/index.php?option=com_adagency&controller=adagencyAds&task=addbanners&Itemid=149
Also, when trying to use the ADD menu I am getting 404 errors such as ...
https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/ads/adagencyAds/addbanners.html?type=banner https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/ads/adagencyHtml5/edit/0.html https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/ads/adagencyVideo/edit/0.html
I was using version 3.0 so a little behind the learning curve with 6.0... Thanks in advance.
prthnon Hi To check the 404 error on backend, i need your site login details via Edit fields option in first post. Kindly submit them and let me know with a reply here.

Thanks Pankaj. I have edited fields per request.
Looking forward to your assistance. Thank You.
prthnon Hi Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet Please check.
Sorry... something went wrong. Please try again - thanks! This is for Joomla backend, yes? Thank You
prthnon Hi There is no error found on the admin panel when create a new ad : http://prntscr.com/sk1zut On the frontend your site have custom URL redirection in .htaccess file. If if turn off the URL re write there is no error http://prntscr.com/sk21fa
Hello! Thanks for reply. Create a new ad seems to be working, yes 🙂
Why is .htaccess file using redirections?
I still find these are sending 404 errors: https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/ads/adagencyAds.html
This happens when clicking on "Add New banner" and for "My Banner Ads". in the Advertisers control menu once logged in.
How do I fix this? Thanks. Best.
prthnon Hi Kindly turn off URL rewrite option in Joomla and make a test, this issue is not from Agency package, its from .htaccess that not allow the correct url to pass. http://prntscr.com/sk5jk4
This then, creates issue with our SEO and search firendly URLs'. I must sacrifice SEO for bad URL names in Agency? This IS a problem for Ad Agency? Can I delete the Agency module and create our own proper SEO friendly links? What is the work around other customers use?
Rewrite : https://www.amusementequipmentdirectory.com/index.php/amusement-equipment-products.html
Addition of index.php in all of my URLS. DESTROYS my current google. Need to go into every page and do a 301 redirect? This won't work.
Thanks.
This - from a customer....
What to do,... if my customers can't use your software - or I must sacrifice SEO?
Please advise. Thanks.
prthnon Hi Its not issue from all customer as there is some custom redirection rule on your site that appear making issue. I tried to rename htaccess.txt with .htacess and turn on URL rewrite and there is no issus with ad agency
Hello! Thanks for the reply.
htaccess rewrite good for Ad Agency, not good for my site URL's. This affects the google. Perhaps I am misunderstanding you... I will take a look at what custom redirections. Thanks.
prthnon Hi This is not about .htaccess file, its about the redirection rules on your site. If you do not want to add index.php in URLs here is guide helps you: https://www.joomlart.com/tutorials/joomla-tutorials/joomla-4-tutorials-how-to-remove-index-php-from-urls
Hello Pankaj. I got the .htaccess file taken care of, it's working as expected now 🙂 Thanks for your help on this one. Best.
prthnon You are welcome!
