Just thought I would share a work around for the users of SEF Advance who are having problems with " Your session timed out while posting. Please try to re-submit your message." error.
Our environment:
SMF 1.1 RC1
Jooma 1.03
Sef Advance v4.2.2
Basically we noticed that turning off SEF in globals, resolved the SMF problem. Then we re-enabled SEF in globals and hacked SMF so it does not try to detect if site-wide SEF is used:
1. Edit fixMamboUrls function in functions.smf.php file. 2. $mosConfig_sefTEMP = 0; <-- Add a new variable (we used $mosConfig_sefTEMP) 3. Replace $mosConfig_sef var in fixMamboUrls function with $mosConfig_sefTEMP
So SMF will always think that SEF is turned off but SEF Advance will continue to do its magic for the rest of the site.
I have purchased SEF Advance and am very frustrated that it doesn't work with Joomla Hacks version of the Joomla-SMF Bridge.
Any idea how to resolve this issue for a NOOB?
If not, any idea when a sef-ext.php file will be released to resolve the issue? Great work guys so far, keep it up!

thats just my point though.... its largely in that post... but its not complete... I know my way around Joomla tc quite well now... designing components, tempaltes, modules etc... but don't fully understand how SEF works...
if someone knows how to do it (idiots guide) please post it here!

I just did this and it is pretty much exactly what he says above to do and it works too! Thanks for this it is a lifesaver!!!!!
But I can see how you might be confused a bit.
In your administrator/components/com_smf directory open the functions.smf.php file.
Search for the fixMamboUrls function.
Directly under the function fixMamboUrls line under the { it will be like this
{ $mosConfig_sefTEMP = 0;
on its own line just like that, but dont put another {, that one is just for demonstration purposes.
Then search for $mosConfig_sef, there should be 3 of them, change them to say $mosConfig_sefTEMP
Then save this and upload it and it should be ok.
I could not have done this without you guys so thank you very much for posting this. It is exactly what I have been looking for for days.
