How to stop Joomla from Reformatting your Title Alias to Lowercase
I found this core hack a while ago but couldn't find it again. I searched and searched until eventually I went digging through Joomla files to find out where it was.
If you are tired of having Joomla overwrite your Title Alias, or Article Alias, then this hack is for you. This is very useful when transferring over sites from different systems which used an alias field as the page title, and was case sensitive.

go to modules/mod_chronocontact/helper.php
change all JURI::base() to JURI::base( true )
This will stop Chronocontact from using default http://www.yoursite.com and use the base directory "/" which then allows Joomla to use HTTPS instead of HTTP.
Otherwise JURI will create form POST ACTION to JURI which is in HTTP.

I had an instance where I needed an ID Variable to be placed in the URL as a query so i could pull it down from the next page with Javascript.
I wanted the URL Redirect field not to just go to http://www.example.com/thinking.html but to http://www.example.com/thinking.html?xID=(ID Variable)

This is more of a: you should know this, rather than a Hack. I had a problem where any page that had its URL formatted by SH404SEF with a trainling slash "/" instead of HTML, lost its CSS properties. Turns out if you manually insert a template file such as in Dreamweaver and upload with that format it will think that the "/" represents a new base directory. Solve this by using Joomla's own base directory command:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/baseurl ?>/templates/templatename/css/template.css" type="text/css" />
or by using .. to denote the base directory.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/../templates/templatename/css/template.css" type="text/css" />.
Either way should work.
