How does SerrBizSEF work with Community Builder?

SerrBizSEF works well, by default, with Community Builder. Links to authors' profiles will be created based on the users name. For example a member with the name of Todd, will have a sef URL like this:

/profile/todd/userprofile.html

However, there are some hiccups with Community Builder that require hacks to the code if you want optimum SEO.

In the articles tab of community builder member profile, you will see a list of articles written by a member. Unfortunately, the way community builder is coded, these URLS will display Joomla dynamic URLS.  If clicked, SerrBizSEF will automatically 301 redirect to the correct SEF.  This is OK, but not optimum.  It is better to have Community Builder display the correct SEF in the Articles Tab, vs not.  To achieve this requires a bit of hacking to the core CB files.

For detailed instructions about modifying Community Builder follow this link.

Note: Given all the additional plug ins for Community Builder, there is moderate probability that you will find instances where adjustments to SerrBizSEF will be required, or hacks to Community Builder will be advisable.  If you find a bug, please do let us know.
