Hi all,

Donīt know if this is going to work for some of you guys but it did for me

I disabled the SEOs "Search Engine Friendly URLs" in the Joomla Global Configuration Panel.

Perhaps not the best solution, but some of you might not need it enabled.

cheers !

I really don't know much about Joomla 1.5 SEF stuff. I'm sure there is a way around it, but I don't know what it is.

Can you take a look at this post?
I think there are just a few modifications nesseary to make it work. PUA is searching in the wrong directory. Unfortunately, i'm not into PHP that much.

Yes, if you look a few posts up, you can see that it was my suggestion to look in a different directory, so I get the workaround. But that is all it is. It isn't a fix. Here is why:

The issue is not that PUA is looking in the wrong directory. The games themselves dictate where they post their scores, not PUA. Where games post their scores to is hardcoded inside the game itself and has nothing to do with PUA. All I can do in PUA is try and anticipate where most games will send their scores, and put files there. So, when you setup a SEF that uses a path that the game was not designed for, then it isn't going to work. The reason it doesn't work is because you can use different paths that you make up yourself, and there is no way for me to know what that will be. You might use /games/, someone else might use /arcade/, someone else might use /spiele/, etc.

That's true. But is there no way to modify some files of PUA (specific for i.e. /Games/)?
I know that this isn't a offical release. But maybe we can create a tutorial for people who want to use SEF-components?
If PUA is finding every file that scores will be saved or am i wrong?
