Bug in creating id with [ID] ?

jmeyknecht · Post by **jmeyknecht** » Fri 5. Mar 2004, 17:28

i wanted to create an internal link to a special article with the [ID integer]read this[/ID] Replacement-Tag, but the ID in the generated hyperlink isn't correct.
[ID 46]read this[/ID] generates index.php?id=0,47,0,0,1,0

but the leading 0, isn't correct. i think there it must be 47,0,....
ID and 0 have to be moved, right?

anyone else experienced this? or my fault by using the tag?

I mean, it's no big deal, can create links with other tags, but if it's really a bug, it could be easily debugged.

the tag is working correctly, maybe your ID is wrong? you can find it out in phpmyadmin go to your phpwcms table in the field articlecat and take a look at it - the id is auto_increment, so here you can find out if you have 100% the right id...

no, the article with ID 47 is present.
but the link has the wrong order of the IDs.
index.php?id=47,0,0,0,1,0 would be the right link.
but the generated link contains index.php?id=0,47,0,0,1,0

you see? not the right order.

I'm using phpwcms patched to 2004-02-20

btw. [ID alias]read this[/ID] is working. is just when i use the article id.

Jan212 is correct. I believe you are mistaken. This replacement tag "inherits" the structure ID where it is placed [in your case the first placeholder 0 would seem to be inheriting the structure ID from the template... which is index (website start)] If it were placed in an article within structure level 1... the resulting link would be generated as:

index.php?id=1,47,0,0,1,0

See explanation here:
http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=720

0 = structure ID
1 = article ID
2 = e.g. 1 -> Print
3 = if 1 show structure
4 = if link to article then show (1)
5 = spare for serveral things

An alternative would be:

Code: Select all

[int http://www.mydomain.com/phpwcms/index.php?id=0,47,0,0,1,0]read this[/int]

or to structure level 7, article 47 would be:

Code: Select all

[int http://www.mydomain.com/phpwcms/index.php?id=7,47,0,0,1,0]read this[/int]

ahhhh. now i see.

sorry, you are right... it was the structure id that was 47.

the article id is a different id. i messed up with all these numbers ;-)

what i wanted, was to set a link to a category in the structure. and this category has id 47, but of course it isn't the article also.

that's why it was working with the alias. i mixed up the structure and article id.

thx.
