sh404SEF® 4.2.0.1585 released

Today we released sh404SEF® 4.1.0 (build 1585) which is compatible with Joomla! 2.5 and 3.x.

This is an Urgent Maintenance Release.

Joomla! 3.2 has some changes that break backward compatiblity. You MUST UPDATE your sh404SEF® first, before any attempt to upgrade Joomla! to 3.2.

Failing to upgrade sh404SEF® before Joomla will likely results in a broken web site. If you experience a white screen or error, please see FAQ on support site^[1]. Other than that, maintenance release with mostly bug fixes and changes to adjust to upcoming release of Joomla! 3.2.
