Hello minisweeper
i am not logged in. if i am, i am able to see the page. also, when i click on someone elses account page, i do not see that correctly.
I've got an odd error with Friendly URL's.
if I turn them OFF, I go to start a new discussion, and i "forget" to put in a discussion topic. I get redirected to http://www.screenflex.com/forum/comments.php and I get an error saying: Some problems were encountered. The requested discussion could not be found.
First off, shouldn't the error tell me that I need to add a Discussion Title? seems a little unfriendly.
But, that's not my point.
When I turn Friendly URL's ON. I don't get directed to the error message screen, I get redirected my website's error document. What's the deal with that? Any suggestions?
Yes, it should, and Vanilla actually does--but there is a bug in an extension somewhere that fiddles with the new discussion object (marked invalid at this point) and makes it appear as valid, so Vanilla makes the mistake of taking you to it when it doesn't exist.
Friendly URLs just changes slightly how this bug works. With friendly URLS, the address of the non-existent post appears more like a file address than a Vanilla/PHP/friendly URLs address, so Friendly URLs ignores the request and lets the web server try to handle it--which fails.
I suspect attachments or notify is the cause of this, but I can't seem to reproduce it.
Hey all, not to jump slightly off-topic, but I've been having the same problems with rewriting subdomain URLs with this extension as Zhak on the previous page. I had everything up and running perfectly, when I was using
http://mysite.com/forum/ but
http://forum.mysite.com/ redirects everything back to index.php. Any reasons this might be happening?
(BTW, I'm using Dinoboff's .htaccess file in my root Vanilla directory.)
sstawarz did you solve it? I have the same problem and I have test without attachment extension and it runs sucessfull, but I don't know how solve it with attachment extension activated.
thanks
No, not yet. My forum has primarily been used by our own company people and a few others. Since activity is slow, I've been able to let this sit for a bit.
Sorry. If you solve it before me, let me know.
thanks.
I should add, that part of the reason it redirects to my home page is the URL is not found, and then apache kicks in with the default error document which I found to be is set to my website's home page by the hosting company.
Anyone using this on 1.1.5a? Anything to help with SEO would be great
edit: working great with 1.1.5a it was a pretty easy install (i guess mod_rewrite and apache were already activated, because i had no idea what to do about that). hopefully this helps with seo because google does not seem to like my site

RewriteRule ^discussions/([0-9]+)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L] RewriteRule ^discussions/([0-9]+)/$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]
what about that:
RewriteRule ^discussions/([0-9]+)(\/?)$ index.php?page=$1 [QSA,L]
and so on with every "double" rule?
