I've created a custom menu for EasySocial registration (the default was too long and had EasySocial in the URL).

I used the following method, described here:

stackideas.com/forums/registration-url

#First - You have to create a menu item (Menu type - EasySocial » Dashboard) from your backend
#Second - You have to create a hidden menu, check my screenshot : screencast.com/t/mpicOfQZ0jd
#Third - After created the hidden menu, then create a menu item (Menu type - EasySocial » Registration), then type your "create-account" in alias, check my screenshot : screencast.com/t/vNw8quXgfb


All of the other "Register" links correctly point to the new URL (www.domain.com/create-account), but the register links in SCLogin pages still point to the original URL (www.domain.com/component/easysocial/registration).

How can I change this to the new URL?

In case it helps, I ran into a similar issue with JReviews and they kindly provided a fix which they will build into the next version (apparently you need to point it to a new EasySocial registration URL).

We just did some tests, but would love your feedback since you're affected by the issue. To make the minor change required, please edit the /modules/mod_sclogin/mod_sclogin.php file. Around line 33, you'll see:
else if ($registerType == 'easysocial' && file_exists(JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_easysocial/includes/foundry.php'))
{
    $registerLink = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_easysocial&view=registration');
Update that bottom line to:
$registerLink = FRoute::registration();
Let me know if that helps get you the link you're looking for. We'll gladly get this fix into the next release.

Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,

I'm so sorry, I had forgotten about this!

Shortly after posting, I edited the URLs for lines 35-38 of the mod_sclogin.php file with the non-SEF URLs for the respective pages.

Does your update also fix the links for forgot password, username and profile?

It likely doesn't fix the forgot URLs. For those, try updating the links like:
$Itemid = FRoute::getDefaultItemId( 'account' );
$forgotUsernameLink = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_easysocial&view=account&layout=forgetusername&Itemid=' . $Itemid);
$forgotPasswordLink = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_easysocial&view=account&layout=forgetpassword&Itemid=' . $Itemid);
$profileLink = FRoute::profile();
The $profileLink hasn't been tested at all, but from looking at their code, it *should* work.

Please test and let me know if that helps get you going. Also, if you have feedback on the registration link code we provided before, we'd love to hear if that worked for you as well. We always like feedback, when possible, before we include changes in the next release.

Thanks,
Alex

Hello Alex, I can confirm that all four links work perfectly and route to the correct SEF URLs.

Thank you so much!
