While creating an internal redirect using mod_rewrite to allow better SEO, I found that Joomla! artio joomsef component didn’t honor redirection variables and processed the URL without the proper GET variables from QUERY_STRING. This is because they use REQUEST_URI (which isn’t changed by mod_rewrite) and don’t care to verify if there is any REDIRECT variable defined.
Habang ang paglikha ng isang panloob na pag-redirect gamit mod_rewrite upang payagan ang mas mahusay na SEO, Nalaman ko na Joomla! artio joomsef bahagi ay hindi parangalan variable at pag-redirect ng URL na naproseso nang walang ang tamang GET variable mula sa QUERY_STRING. Ito ay dahil ginagamit nila REQUEST_URI (na kung saan ay hindi nabago sa pamamagitan ng mod_rewrite) at hindi na mahalaga upang i-verify kung mayroong anumang pag-redirect variable na tinukoy.
