{{:Search Engine Friendly URLs}}
This article addresses SEF URLs under the popular, open-source [http://nginx.net Nginx webserver].

{{JVer|2.5}} Since Joomla! 2.5, basic SEF URLs are enabled by default. {{JVer|1.5}} In prior versions you need to use the Global Configuration to enable them. The instructions below still apply if you want to use Apache's mod_rewrite/URL rewriting.

<onlyinclude>
*Bitte den folgenden Code der Konfiguration des Servers (vhost) in der Datei ''nginx.conf'' eingeben:
<pre>
   # Support Clean (aka Search Engine Friendly) URLs
   location / {
      try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
   }
</pre>

* If the above does not work, add the next code to your server configuration in the ''nginx.conf'' file: (This worked with nginx 1.4.6 on Ubuntu.)
<pre>
server {
  ....
  location / {
     expires 1d;

     # Enable joomla SEF URL's inside Nginx
     try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
  }
  ....
}
</pre>

* Log on to your Back-end and open the Global Configuration
* Enable the '''Search Engine Friendly URLs''' option and ''Save''. This option converts the URLs from the native Joomla! format to the SEF format.
*: Verify that your site works correctly. Your URLs should now look like <code><nowiki>http://www.example.com/index.php/the-news/1-latest-news/1-welcome-to-joomla</nowiki></code>.
*: If your site does not work correctly, please see [[Why does your site get messed up when you turn on SEF (Search Engine Friendly URLs)?]]
* Enable the '''Use Apache mod_rewrite/URL rewriting''' option and ''Save''. This option uses the Apache ''mod_rewrite'' function to eliminate the "index.php" portion of the URL
*: Verify that your site works correctly. Your URLs should now look like <code><nowiki>http://www.example.com/the-news/1-latest-news/1-welcome-to-joomla</nowiki></code>.
*: If this option causes errors, please see [[How to check if mod rewrite is enabled on your server]].
*:: If it is not enabled and you have access to the file <code>apache/conf/httpd.conf</code>, open that file and verify that the line <code>LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so</code> is uncommented. If necessary, uncomment the line and restart the Apache web server.
*:: If ''mod_rewrite'' cannot be enabled, leave this option off. It does not matter if you leave the <code>.htaccess</code> file renamed.
* ''If you think this is necessary'', enable '''Add suffix to URLs''' and ''Save''. This option adds <code>.html</code> to the end of URLs. There are different opinions on whether this is necessary or even useful. Search engines do not seem to care if your URLs end in <code>.html</code> or not.
* Open the Plugin Manager and enable the '''System - SEF plugin'''. This plugin adds SEF support to links in your Joomla articles. It operates directly on the HTML and does not require a special tag.
