Remove "SEO by Artio" backlink from all pages Artio JoomSEF 2.2.6

Friday, 08 October 2010

Artio Joom SEF is a lovely tool but it has a couple of naughty SPAM type problems that come with the free version. Artio JoomSEF inserts spam into your meta tags and a back link on every page. To remove Artio JoomSEF's hijack of your content pages by the naughty addition of the "SEO by Artio" backlink from all pages do the following changes, note the change works only with version 2.2.6 of Artio JoomSEF

Edit /components/com_sef/sef.php

* Find the line
xmlParsing($URI->path, $base, $index, @$option);

* comment out with
#
Like this
#xmlParsing($URI->path, $base, $index, @$option);

Finally once you have a good working version of Artio JoomSEF then
there is no need to upgrade unless you have a specific bug/issue you are
addressing. If you upgrade this hack will be overwritten and the spam
will return. Stay with the version of JoomSEF that works!
