The much improved gbp_permanent_links has now replaced this plugin.

Cheers. :-)

this looks really useful!

graeme · 2005-09-07 07:58:33

Oh… I should also say that by using this plugin you can make your own permalinks format.

This looks very interesting! I’ll certainly look into it.

Sounds great! But when I activate the plugin on the home page I get this message before the content:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/ecologia/public_html/textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(429) : eval()’d code on line 840

I’m in test mode. I have 4.0.1 version.

Zanza, I think I know whats happening here and have updated the plugin. Could you try the new version (0.6.1) and let me know if it fixes that error.

Cheers.

It works well for me, and I see how powerful this is. :) Now I can have a url like /about/me/…/… .
Thank you, graeme.

This is really a super-duper plugin!!

Will this plugin have any effect on messy urls? I’m sure this is dependent on mod_rewrite for url scheming. One of my hosts doesnt allow .htaccess files and so I am forced to use messy urls. Will this plugin favour messy urls in anyway?

Well if you’re forced to use messy URLs you can try something like this:

Add an URI forwarder like %^\/\?(?#section)\/$%
This will match any section which is prefixed by an ? like this: www.domain.com/?about/

Thanks Jon, it means a lot to hear that :)

I’ve just update the plugin to v0.6.2.

As all the data is stored in the txp_prefs table data was limited to a certain lenght. This is now fixed.
I’ve also added a new textpattern tag, see the plugin help page for more detail.

boblet · 2005-09-13 09:51:32

Hey Graeme,

just a few questions, as I’m not smart enough to work it out from the source code & help docs :-/

what should the permanent link mode be set to under admin > prefs > site prefs?
how can we make the txp:permlink tag use these urls? is there an equivalent of txp:sgb_url_handler_permlink?
would it be possible to provide a few more regexp examples? While I kinda understand the one you’ve got, I’m not sure if I understand it enough to extrapolate ;-)
does this plugin produce error pages (404 et al) for failed matches? If not do you have any plans for an sgb_error_documents equivalent?
what does “allow category forwarding” do (plugin prefs)?

My aim is to make the faux static urls /section/category/title for 3 sections and /section/date/title for one section of the site I’m building. I’m really interested in this plugin as ole’ sgb seems to have moved on, and this seems like it should be able to replace it.

Thanks in advance!

peace – boblet

I’m afraid I don’t understand how to use this.

What would I do if I want an URL scheme like /section/category/title ?

Thanks for any hints.
