If \ when you click new, edit, save, etc ... It seems to point to a non SEF url.

eg: when you press new you get index.php?option=com_multisites&Itemid=170

Is this expected?

YES because all the joomla button use link contain a javascript that perform a submit on the form below.

The problem is that the javascript perform the submit and that the data present in the form are NOT sent (empty).
If you dump the data received by the server, there is no data sent from the browser.

If you replace all the icon by standard HTML <input type="submit" ....> this perfectly work.

Perhaps a fix will be available in next release.
I am currently testing a solution that seems to fix the bug

A fix would be nice.

The problem seems to be a bug in Joomla itself that does not correctly convert the "original URL" into SEF and that keep additional parameters that might be present several time and therefore be considered as an array and not as string as expected by Joomla (not jms multisites).
The consequence of this wrong SEF conversion by Joomla (not jms multisites) is that Joomla call the default processing that might be the front page or the default "display" function of the component.

We have implemented a workarround to alllow the standard Joomla SEF analyze the "original URL (containing the parameters)" in the same maner than mod_mainmenu that resolve the link differently when SEF is enabled because the standard Joomla SEF does not cleanup the parameters correctly.
Such kind of problem in encoding / decoding is reported in Joomla bug tracker and still not solved.


This fix is available in JMS Multisites 1.2.36

Hi Edwin,

When you edit a site using the link you still have the same issue, when you edit a site using the radio button it is fixed.
