We use sh404SEF component for URL creation and it works fine with JomSocial except one area - filterbar in group categories, which is built without using the Joomla API, and therefore URLs are not recorded in the database, creating 404s

Seems like it is creating the URLs directly in javascript, which of course cannot work with database based URLs.

The code involved is in the file /components/com_community/templates/jomsocial/layouts/filterbar.html.php.

function joms_change_filter( value, type ) {
var url;

// Category selector.
if ( type === 'category' ) {
if ( value ) {
url = '<?php echo html_entity_decode(CRoute::_("index.php?option=com_community&view=groups&task=display&categoryid=__cat__")); ?>';
url = url.replace( '__cat__', value );
} else {
url = '<?php echo html_entity_decode(CRoute::_("index.php?option=com_community&view=groups&task=display")); ?>';
}

window.location = url;
return;
}

// Filter selector.
// @todo
}



This simply cannot work with fully SEF URLs.
