gbp_permanent_links

I think that is not a bug… I simply didn’t set base permalink mode to messy.
Maybe I read the topic with little attention.

I’m getting errors loading individual articles, and only when gbp_permanent_links is enabled. The error is “Undefined variable: threshold_type”

General error Notice: Undefined variable: threshold_type on line 268
\textpattern\lib\txplib_misc.php(812) : eval()’d code:536 getNextPrev()
PermanentLinks->_textpattern()
\textpattern\lib\txplib_misc.php:854 call_user_func_array()
\textpattern\publish.php:526 callback_event()
\index.php:83 textpattern()

General error Notice: Undefined variable: threshold_type on line 274

\textpattern\lib\txplib_misc.php:854 call_user_func_array()

\index.php:83 textpattern()

Addition: I get this error only on ‘single pages’ and even if I don’t have any rules defined.

Being it’s now 7+ years later and still no docs, I’m guessing it is indeed straightforward to use. ;)

I’m about to find out.

Make sure to set your default TXP URL format to “?messy” and you’ll do fine.

I think (????!!!) its server dependent also – just keep messing with the prefs until it works with your setup – I’ve always managed to get it working

Yes, I’ve had odd results on different servers. Have always run sites with section/title permlink mode though, so maybe that was part of the issue to which qrayg alluded.

I’ve had it where you go to a page, gbp kicks in and lets you handle the ‘missing’ URL content but if the URL is malformed in any way and you decide you can’t render the content as the visitor expects, when you try to throw a manual 404 it just swallows it and you get no content at all. Very odd. Sometimes it also stops 404ing on invalid category pages too, even if I haven’t set up a rule to go near categories.

Maybe my gbp rules were mashed, or maybe it was a server setup thing. Who knows!

I’ve used the heck out of this plugin and I’ve found it works fine in most URL modes, but whenever I have problems doing category views I always end up going back to ?messy mode. I think it’s just best to stick with ?messy mode and build out all your URL scenarios using the plugin prefs.

Maybe there’s a better solution but mine is the only one that works on the many sites I built that have /section, /section/title, /section/category and /section/category/title urls. I recently built a site using the /yyyy/mm/dd/title mode and I ended up having to switch to ?messy mode and recreate the url mode in the plugin prefs so I could get /section/category URLs to work properly.

That might actually be sage advice. Maybe all my troubles were attributable to PEBKAC. Next time I do a gbp_pl site I’ll try that approach, thanks for the tip.

Indeed, it is.

And this one too.

Sometimes it’s a hard-to-tame plugin, somewhat frustrating, but then, it can make some wonders with URLs too.

I have been trying to understand this pluging for several years and I have never succeded.

Does any one could upload one or to samples of a desired URL pattern and a screenshot showing how to set it on working? I will be really thankfully!

I used messy most of the time (matches my coding :)) – but obviously my textpattern google sitemap results were messy too :(

Compromise

I have the same trouble. Can someone write some example?
