Joomsef Meta Generator Fix/Modification for Joomsef Version 1.4.3
Background
Joomsef is one of the best SEF components available for Joomla. SEF is "Search Engine Friendly". This is used to change the default Joomla URL's, like "index.php?option=com_content&Itemid=26&id=12&task=view" into URLS like "http://www.kangainternet.com.au/melbourne-website-design.html". Clearly SEF is vital in Search Engine Optimisation, reason, because search engines much prefer URL's like the latter. They rank them much higher, can understand them and also pick up on keywords in the URL itself.
The Problem
The problem with Joomsef is that although it is great it has a down side. The standard Joomsef component has advertising used in it and this is produced in the form of Meta tags in the pages displayed. This can affect website ranking in search engines. The Joomsef website says"The latest open-source version of JoomSEF may contain links to ARTIO webpages or some of the JoomSEF development sponsors. Based on our policy, the older versions of JoomSEF available from our pages will be kept free of these links. You can also get the latest version without links of the JoomSEF from our webshop"
To gain a version without these sponsors shown in the output code you have to pay for it unless you follow the following patch.
The Solution
You need to locate the file "/components/com_sef/sef.php" and open it in a text editor.Replace the contents of the whole file with the following.
