Jomsocial Sh404sef Extra URL creation and MISSING CANONICAL links

Many unwanted URL's are created which are duplicate of other page views, while critical canonical links are missing would result in google ranking penalty.

Examples :

SEF url /ajaxpreview
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&lang=en&task=ajaxPreview&view=photos


SEF url group/__cat__/display
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&categoryid=__cat__&lang=en&task=display&view=groups


SEF url videos/
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&lang=en&view=videos
SEF url videos/display
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&lang=en&task=display&view=videos
SEF url videos/general/display
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&catid=1&lang=en&task=display&view=videos

SEF url /group
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&lang=en&task=group&view=photos
SEF url group/
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&lang=en&view=groups
SEF url group/display +
Non-SEF url index.php?option=com_community&Itemid=103&lang=en&task=display&view=group
SEF url /group/__cat__/display

HI, Usama.

Thank you for contacting us.
As I mentioned on chat - task=display was removed from our URLs.
task=ajaxPreview can't be removed as it's user triggered only and not reachab;e by any crawlers.

- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you
