I have a weird issue where when I create a new article in Joomla, no matter what it's called and visit it, it shows content from a completely different page (consistently the same page). In the content that shows, if I click on the title which is hyperlinked to it's own page, it goes to a different URL with the same content.
The aliases aren't the same on any of the pages and the content that shows is from a completely different article. I don't see any redirects on the site and there are a bunch of other articles that have been on the site for a while now that work fine.
Any ideas on where to look?
There are several reasons for this problem:
sh404SEF gone mad (Here's an example of the myriad of problems we had with this extensions: http://www.itoctopus.com/sh404-the-worst-joomla-extension ) if you have it installed.
Weird redirects in the .htaccess file (have you checked it thoroughly?)
Issues with your template
An unstable SEF plugin installed on your website (other than sh404SEF )

Hello i need some help to solve a problem.
I have a joomla site 3.3.3 version and i removed the id's from url according to this.[https://joomla.stackexchange.com/questions/988/remove-article-id-from-joomla-3-url][1]
Everything works ok.When i created an Articles-Newsflash (advanced) module and assign articles to it,by clicking the link title it give's me 404 error page.
When i go to the admin area and turn Sef Advanced Mode to no everything works!
I can't figure out what i'm missing.
Thank's in advance for any help!!
P.S.Its a multilingual site.
This happens when you have articles with the same aliases, even trashed articles. Check your trash for deleted articles and completely trash them.
By the way, we created an exhaustive guide, and it is available here: http://www.itoctopus.com/how-to-remove-the-article-id-from-joomlas-sef-urls
There is also a way, described in the guide, of doing this whole thing without modifying a core file.
I found a lot of resource on the web talking about issue like mine but nothing worked for me.
I build a joomla 3.4.1 website, installed a rocket theme template (momentum) based on Gantry.
I created 3 categories, 1 for each language. I created the pages. Both pages and categories are correctly set for the good language.
I left a main menu for all language, with a module, deactivated.
I created 3 menus (one for each language) with each time a home page (the flags appear in the menu)
I installed the multilanguage module it seems to be good.
Then I went to the template manager. Let a style for "all languages" and created copies for each language. For each language, I choose the good menu.
Is there anything wrong with what I did ?
I'm really welcoming any kind of help...
The URL is: www.bsports.be
(On safari, I've a too many redirect issue, not on chrome)
Settled thanks to:

Made some change to the .htaccess and it works fine now, hope this will help others
we moved a site for a client a while back that someone else created. Its running on Joomla 1.7.
We want to do some light SEO work for them but I can't for the life of me find the Meta/SEO title field anywhere.
All the support posts I've looked at say its here or there but for me its not. It seems to be know where! In the meta options section when editing an artcile there is a description and keyword field but no title.
Some help would be appreciated. This client can't justify a new website.
Thanks!
Update:
we ended up upgrading this install to 2.5, still couldn't edit the meta titles anywhere. So I installed a plugin which gave me the title field but it had no effect! Can only assume the theme hasn't been put together properly. The conclusion is that its now quicker for us to just move them to WordPress where stuff works properly! :)
I'm working more with Wordpress than Joomla, but I think that you should download an extension if you want to have a meta-title in the pages. For the home page you can change it from Menu - Main menu - Home.
I have an annoying problem and am hoping someone will be able to help.
We use quite a few extensions on our Joomla site (Roksprocket mainly but also Global News Filter for instance).
The modules themselves are working fine however when I click on an article in one of these modules the article opens but it doesn't use the nice URL that should be displayed (we have Search Engine Friendly URLs set to Yes and Use URL rewriting set to Yes). This happens for all modules that draw off a category (so I don't think its linked to a specific extension).
For instance on our Case Studies page if you click on Read More on the RSA Case Study you get this URL
http://www.assima.net/en/resources/case-studies/99-home/resources/case-studies/ats-case-studies/649-case-study-rsa
but what you should get is the menu item URL associated with this article which is this
http://www.assima.net/en/resources/case-studies/ats-case-studies/rsa
I don't think there is anything wrong with our .htaccess as I reverted back to the default Joomla one and it still occured.
Also this used to work perfectly. I first noticed it around October or November last year.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it, I've googled the problem many times and not found any help.
Thanks

First thing to do is add &tmpl=component to the URL has has the problem. If the problem goes away, then the problem is in a module somewhere. If not, then switch templates. If the problem goes away, check your template files. Next turn off javascript in your browser and see if the problem persists. If it goes away, then the problem is javascript inserted in to your database.
