Honestly I don't understand the question. And specific problems and support issues like this should always be sent to mail along with access info, not on the forum. Forum is for general questions and discussion with other users.
I still think that one should use the ID, not the slug part in the component's logic so the both links can work but you have a valid point there: it's not up to SEF component to decide.
So I will be looking into it and fix it for alias in next version.
Legacy mode plugin must be activated on Joomla 1.5. I look into minimizing the work in extension maintenance so I don't release a separate native extension for 1.5.
Read the readme file that comes with the extension for Docman:
Docman 1.3 RC2
IMPORTANT NOTE: --------------- This extension is provided for free to all SEF Advance customers. It is not supported and there are no guarantees it will work for future versions of Docman.
I may update it for latest Docman when I got time.
Yes, it was missing trailing slash in the extension for JReviews. But, instead of adding it to the extension I added support for this in SEF Advance and it's fixed in v5.8.2.
It's possible that he doesn't have the trailing slash in the extension. It's best if you send me the access details (admin password and FTP info) and I will take a look on this.
Still don't see your point. It doesn't serve any purpose other than SEO. An URL with slug or without it leads to same content. So why does it matter if it's stripped in alias? The alias still works as intended.
Unless you are using this slug in your component's logic somehow which you shouldn't do, you should use the ID:s.
Why is it a problem when alias works correctly. The user never sees the slug anyway. And it is easier if it's stripped, otherwise you would need two aliases: one for URL with and another without slug. And we know Joomla has different URLs leading to same content.
You were right about the search. I now added getUserStateFromRequest both for alias and redirects search box and it's available in v1.6.5.
