Right now, I'm picking up some projects made by a different person and one of those projects is a website on Joomla running DjCatalog 2. Let's say I have an item, and a category it belongs to. The item is accessible via both site.com/category/item and site.com/item while I want it to only be accessible via site.com/item. To my knowledge, DirectAlias doesn't work together with DjCatalog.

To specify, I've been trying to find solutions online for the duplicate URLs problem and the ones I did find actually don't work with DjCatalog 2 at all. – Ivan Talanov Mar 27 '17 at 11:04

I have also tried to modify .htaccess for mass redirects as this: `Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^(.*)item.html /item.html [R=301,NC]` without a positive result. – Ivan Talanov Mar 27 '17 at 12:03

For anyone experiencing the same problem, I was able to solve it somewhat by turning on "Advanced Mode" in SEO settings. Be careful, though, as it might influence your current SE indexation, or some such.

regarding DJ-Catalog2 and duplicate content. You do not need to worry as DJ-Catalog2 provides the canonical links and same product even if is available in more than one category. Each DJ-Catalog2 page contains Canonical Link that leads to unique URL of given product, category or producer. Search engines respect that and don't treat such pages as duplicated.
