Hi

I’m facing the following problem related to facebook and the logo href to /index.php

The homepage includes a module with ‘facebook’s recommend button’. It is working fine as long as the page URL is / and not /index.php. In case of the latter, the number of recommendations is incorrect.

I would like to change the logo reference to / instead of /index.php – could you please help me locate the file where I should be looking for it?

I’m aware of the fact I could use mod_rewrite to achieve it, but I would rather avoid it as it is not recommended due to its affecting SEO.

Thanks. 🙂

EDIT: I accidentally posted the message on a wrong forum. I hope someone will remove it it to unsolved. :-[
Sorry for that.

Usually it goes in layoutsblocksheader.php
The code with renders the logo could look like:


<h1 class="logo">
<a href="index.php" title="<?php echo $siteName; ?>"><span><?php echo $siteName; ?></span></a>
</h1>


The most easiest way out would be to hardcode site’s url instead of “index.php”
Another option could be to use JURI/base

Thanks a lot. It’s fixed (just changed to ‘/’ as I said). I did not realize how simple this could be… :laugh: (perhaps because of my previous experience with modifying joomla source files due to which I rather expected some variable to be mysteriously hidden ;)).

Again, thank you for the quick response.
