TOPIC: com_tags extension erroneous behaviour

com_tags extension erroneous behaviour 7 years, 11 months ago #47570

  • lvr123
Hello,
I've organised my site content around tags (com_tags).

I've got one menu item called "city" to show all articles with the tag "city".

JoomSEF creates automatically the SEF Url "city/city" pointing to
index.php?option=com_tags&id=Array&types=Array&view=tag&Itemid=126
And this works great.

I try to rename this URL to a mere "city" isntead of "city/city". And I do it.
Thus now "city" points to
index.php?option=com_tags&id=Array&types=Array&view=tag&Itemid=126


Well, when I try to open this URL in my browser it gives a special 404 error "404 - Tag not found" ("404 - Tag introuvable" in my french version)

While at the same time JoomSef, puts that "city" url as link on all my "city" tags introducing therefore errors in my site !!!

How can I force JoomSef to handle correctly this com_tags urls ?

Thanks,

Laurent

I manage to solve and reproduce the problem.
There is a bug in JoomSEF.

Steps to reproduce the bug :

a) Have a menu pointing to a com_tags element
=> JoomSEF creates 2 URLS:
* "city/city" =>
index.php?option=com_tags&id=13&view=tag&Itemid=123

* "city/city" =>
index.php?option=com_tags&id[0]=13&types[0]=1&view=tag&Itemid=123


b) edit the "index.php?option=com_tags&id[0]=13&types[0]=1&view=tag&Itemid=123"
Change for exemple the URL. I set it to "city"

c) Save
Expected : the real url remains unchanged
Result: the real url is changed to:
index.php?option=com_tags&id=Array&types=Array&view=tag&Itemid=123


where "id[0]=13" wasreplaced by "Array".

d) Use this url in the browser
Expected : you see the articles with the tag "city"
Result: Error 404, Tag not found.

CQFD
