Re: duplicate articles in admin page, not in mysql database. How to fix ?

Ah yes. Forgot you’d changed that. In which case, it may be that if it was corrupt, JimJoe got lucky with choosing the correct nodes and it cascade rebuilt the affected tree.

Speaking of which, is there any logical place in the Txp UI we can squeeze this functionality? A button/link and confirmation to rebuild the tree. Or should we leave it to a plugin like rss_sdmin_db_manager to expose?

If I’ve understood it correctly, it’s not really a DB operation. Perhaps under “Advanced options” in the settings?
Or as it seems to be very rare, as a troubleshooting note in the docs? I’m guessing it can be run by creating a page with a txp:php snippet and running that?

It is. It completely rebuilds all the left/right pointer links in the txp_category table.

That would work. In theory, it shouldn’t be necessary but, y’know, code.

Yes, absolutely, assuming the appropriate allow PHP setting(s) are on (which are off by default from 4.9.0+).

Less than 600 entries on that site.

We could add rebuild links to categories tab, especially if there is an easy way to detect a corrupt tree. But I still can’t see how category tree corruption can duplicate articles list.

Me neither. Unless the tree somehow violated the index, the category name that is naughtily used as the foreign key in the textpattern table should be unique.
If there were, somehow, two entries with identical names, surely any article assigned to it would still pick the first one it found when it did the join? And that should be consistent each time it’s called.
Baffling.

I’ve added more articles, no duplicates.
When I inserted the articles via cpanel mysql, I made sure there were no duplicates. The import stops anyway, if an article number is already there.

That was true in 4.8.7, but took too much time (~1s per 1000 categories) on category-rich sites (some have >6000 categories). Now txp tries to modify only concerned nodes, which is much faster, but does not repair broken trees. One has to call
rebuild_tree_full()php function to this end.Absolutely.
How would I call that php function ? I have access to the cpanel for my sites.
