Joomla ARTIO SEF set default Itemid for new posts

A small hack to set the default Itemid for new posts added into the admin panel can be done at 2 places in the

file:  components/com_sef/joomsef.php

Line: 1462

                    if (isset($Itemid) && ($Itemid != '')) {
                        $col = ', `Itemid`';
                        $val = ", '171'";
                     // Itemid of the menu item, which is included for almost all modules in our site
                    }

Line: 1567

    if (isset($Itemid) && ($Itemid != '')) {
                                $col = ', `Itemid`';
                                $val = ", '171'";
                            }

Whenever a new article is added in the admin panel, and its link is visited in the front end, a record is inserted into the jos_sefurls table, with the Itemid column value as 1. This can be hacked with the above code modification, to include a custom Itemid for the new url, so that relevant modules are loaded in the new article.
