/index.php?alias - don't work...

Some basic questions:

1. Did you already insert a structure level under index.php and give it a category title and then alias the category as.... "alias" and send the category data ?

2. And have you inserted a link somewhere in the article content that when clicked upon does not take you there?

3. Or are you entering the link into your browser address window and getting just the index page?

4. Or have you entered a [ID string]alias[/ID] somewhere that is giving you this symptom?

It should work if you have performed the steps in question #1

Believe me... with just this query:

/index.php?alias - don't work...

there will not be much help offered

[oops]

i attempted all variants...
maybe problem with php 4.2.2 ?

[Jens]

I've got the same problem. The reason is, that

Code: Select all

sizeof($_GET)

is nil, if "?alias" without a "=" is used. However, even if a "=" - like "?alias=" - is used, the alias-feature in content.func.inc.php does not work. By the way, I'm using PHP 4.2.1 as well as 4.2.2. So, any ideas?

[oops]

thanks

[Oliver Georgi]

It should be possible to change that. Do this. Check if $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] is not empty and test this code

in content.func.inc.php below line 52 try this

Code: Select all

if(sizeof($_GET)) {
		foreach($_GET as $key => $value) {
			$alias = trim($key);
			break;
		}

to

Code: Select all

if(trim($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
		$query = explode("&", trim($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']));
		$alias = $query[0];

[oops]

It works

[ami6]

Sorry, could not get this to work. I do have the same "alias" problem.

Oliver, could you pls. clarify which part to replace, change exactly? Maybe I am too dumb to see this...

Thanks a lot!

[Oliver Georgi]

You have to replace one with the other code as described above.
