Hm ... I want to have article urls with catgeories but also with canonicals. It is able in sh404sef to add canonicals manually but its not comfortable by 800 and daily new urls.

So, if anyone could help me to find a solution i will pay for it. My wish is to set url of main category, selected in article, as default canonical url.

Hello, i checked and
Canonical URL for item is different with and without SH404SEF, and it depends on current category, the item may look differently depending from which category it is viewed.

We can discuss if canonical URL of item should be the same for all categories,

You could make canonical URL for item same regardless from which category it is viewed by using always the main-category id like this:

in file
components/views/item/view.html.php find and replace line

Code:

$ucanonical 	= $base . JRoute::_(FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute($item->slug, $item->categoryslug));

with:

Code:

$ucanonical 	= $base . JRoute::_(FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute($item->slug, $item->catid));
