This is not a plugin, this is component for joomla

Post frequency will be added in next version of component. Next version is in progress. We can fix one bug with work of component with some k2 installations and Post frequency option will be added.

As of today a new version of SEO Links for Joomla is available. Some of the most important changes are:
- The keyphrases are now matched anywhere in the content, regardless of what is next to them: a tag, a punctuation mark, some spaces or something else.
- The preg_replace function now works with Cyrillic texts as well (possibly works with other UTF-8 character subsets, not tested).
- SEO Links is now case insensitive when parsing Cyrillic texts (possibly works with other UTF-8 character subsets as well, not tested).
- A new keyphrase parameter is added: Wrapped in whitespaces. Indicates whether to match only keyphrases surrounded by white spaces (the behavior of the component prior to this version) or to match everything.

The new version has a separate K2 SEO Links plugin integrated in the distribution package (requires the content SEO Links plugin to be installed!).

Fixed bugs:
- The keyphrase substitution with a link from a random position in the text now works correctly.
- The keyphrase's category is now displayed correctly in the admin panel.

Newest version now is published. You can download it from here:Seo Links Pro for Joomla


If you have problem on some servers, make this:

Open file /public_html/plugins/content/seolinks.php

At row number 165 search for this:

This is not a bug, at some servers work in one case, at other servers - other

Component now support Joomla 1.7, Joomla 1.6 and Joomla 1.5! IN package are 2 zip files - one for Joomla 1.7 and 1.6 and one for Joomla 1.5.

Our extension Seo links has been published in JED for more than a year. A week ago the JED team unpublished the old Seo links as well as all its votes and made a new entry with different ID. Here is the old link.

The reason to do this is the "UR6-Changed To Commercial Distribution". Our extension was commercial since the beginning. It is the best extension for automatic linking in Joomla. I made a mistake and changed its status to Non-commercial, then I saw my error and changed it back to Commercial.

As a result the JED team published the Seo links anew - without votes, user rating and reviews, sending it to the last place.

If you are using Seo Links or Seo links Pro and you like our component, please, vote (again) for it in JED and write a few words about the extension. This will help the users to recognize which extension of this type is better and it will help us to develop further versions of SeoLinks.


You can vote for the extension here: New link to Seo Links in Jed

v.1.6.3 of Seo Links Pro - Component now work with Virtuemart, Sobi2 and Zoo! (updated 21.10.2011)


More info: Seo Links Pro now work with Virtuemart, Sobi2 and Zoo

Seo Links Pro work with Joomla 2.5! Tested on 02.02.2012 with Joomla! 2.5.0.

EventList, SobiPro and JDownloads support is added. Guide is included in archive of extension.

Seo Links Pro v.1.6.5.2 is released - Updated to work with Kunena forum in all versions of Joomla! (19.04.2012)

Now (23.04.2012) Seo Links Pro have integration with Agora forum (only J!1.5 version of Agora) - keyword to link and keyword to ads for posts.

Today (29.05.2012) is added integration of Seo Links Pro with Sports Predictions component - Joomla 2.5 version only. Work on matches pages.

The SEO Links component has been completely rebuilt today. The new version is already available.

Is updated only Joomla 2.5 version of Seo Links Pro!

The script is optimised for speed and economy. New features added:

1. All SEO Links can now have up to 7 values (in the previous version of the component only the Custom Markup links could have more than one value). When a match is found, one of the SEO Link's values will be randomly selected and used.

SEO Link parameters:



In this way you can post links with different anchors (if you have filled more than one field in value 1, value 2, value 3...) or with only one anchor text (if you have filled only field value 1).

2. A K2 category filter is added in addition to the com_content one. You may now specify in which K2 category the SEO Link is to be used or ignored.



3. seolondon, now this option is built-in. Every Nth option in Seo Links Pro allows the user to specify how frequently the link is to be used (based on the article's ID). On screen Every Nth: 3 mean that this keyword will be replaced to link in every third content item.

4. The component now takes advantage of the built-in Joomla ACL system:



5. A new option is added (when importing JSON backup archives): Import categories relations, default NO. This option should be set to YES if you import the archive into the same site it was extracted from and to NO in all other cases. When set to YES, it preserves the "SEO Link to category ID" relations, which makes sense only when importing into the same site.

NOTE: currently you can not import JSON archives, made with an old version of the component! This, however, is about to be fixed in the next version.



When upgrading an old version with the new one, the installer upgrades the content plugin as well. The K2 plugin is abandoned, it is not uninstalled automatically.

In case of upgrade from previous version:
1. Install over new version over joomla installer
2. Uninstall k2 plugin from older version

Yes, you can do this with latest version of seo links pro. To make it:

1. configure some keyword - facebok or other
2. Use "custom markup" type and enter in fields something like this link wheel:



If you want only one anchor text, use only field one, if you want link wheel with random anchors, use many fields - like on screen.

Price of Seo Links pro now is reduced to 19 usd. Enjoy the power of best autolinking component for joomla on lower price

A bug in the content plugin is fixed today. The bug exists in the plugin versions for both Joomla 1.5 and above. The bug consists of overwriting some of the article's existing links with SEO Links spawned ones.

In order to fix the bug you have to open the content plugin's file, namely:

J1.5: /plugins/content/seolinks.php
J1.6-J2.5: /plugins/content/seolinks/seolinks.php

1. Find the following line (J1.5: row 132; J2.5: row 140):



ABOVE it insert:



2. Find the following line (J1.5: row 211; J2.5: row 219):



ABOVE it there should be:



Replace the above code with:

Version 3.2 Pro for Joomla 2.5+ will be available in next hours.



Two SEO Links entry settings were added:

1. Ignore IDs: A comma separated list of article IDs, where the link must not be used.
2. Mind the ID: If enabled, the SEO link's values will be checked against the last digit of the article's ID. If the relevant SEO link value is set, it will be used for this article. E.g. (article ID 2336): If the SEO link's Value 6 is set, it will be used in this article, otherwise the SEO link will not be used here.


Extension is uploaded to file directory! Is updated only Joomla 2.5 version.
