[Done 1.5.2] Short URLs 1.3

[[Unknown]]

Hi again,
It has got problems with News.php
I tred to do what do said for SSI.php but it didn't work, I hope you can help me.
Thanks!

If you're using 1.5.2 (which is the version this mod is for!) you won't have those problems.

I am using it but the links to "comments" and "Write Comment" aren't working

If you have the newest version installed, it should work.

I tested it with the URL: (won't work for you...)
http://localhost/tester/index.php?board=1;action=news

And it worked properly.  Make sure you are accessing News.php the correct way.

I am getting lots of members saying that the cant view attachments as the URL is wrong, and others saying they are constalty getting logged out.. started when I installed the short URL's

http://www.200mph.org.uk

any ideas?

Looks like your attachments URL is wrong.

Ok, I need to clarify something.  If you use two URLs for your site, this mod is NOT for you.  YaBB SE fixes this problem by using full URLs - thus, you get redirected to the correct working one.  This mod uses short URLs.... so it *doesn't* switch the URL.

For example... if I go to your site and log in via:
http://www.200mph.org.uk/index.php?action=login

And then go to this URL:
http://www.200mph.net/yabbse/index.php?board=1

I will NO LONGER be logged in.  This is something MSIE does... nothing I can prevent.  Thus, they will appear not to be logged in.

I recommend you either do not use my mod or you pick one of the URLs and use a simple redirection script for the other...

(Save this as index.php...)

Code Select Expand

<?php

header('Location: http://www.200mph.net/yabbse/index.php' . (empty($QUERY_STRING ? '' : '?' . $QUERY_STRING)));

?>

This will fix the issue - you will only be able to access the forum from the .net address, where it *seems* to actually be hosted.

Lastly, set your attachments URL to:
http://www.200mph.net/yabbse/attachments

And that will fix the attachments problem.

I am calling News.php with this code:

<? include("http://roxette.cs.caltech.edu/runto/forum/index.php?action=news;board=18;limit=10;template=noticias_r2r"); ?>

Isn't that ok?
It makes the links to:

http://roxette.cs.caltech.edu/runto/Noticias/index.php

(there's where I am showing the "News")

I suppose it won't work then.  I'll release a new version that doesn't shorten for News or SSI.

thanks Unknown. I understand what you are saying.

so if I set an index.php in the 200mph.net root, and get the 200mph.org.uk redirected to the root, then should work.

have renamed the attachment file a well.

cheers

Did you upgrade?  Make sure this is in index.php:

Code Select Expand

$scripturl = ($modSettings['enableShortURLs'] && $action != 'news' ? '' : $boardurl . '/') . 'index.php';
$cgi = $scripturl . '?' . ($modSettings['enableShortURLs'] && empty($board) ? '' : 'board=' . $board);

I uninstall and reinstall it again and it's working great! Thanks Unknown!
