Pretty URL | Unable to Post
« on February 14th, 2014, 02:02 PM »
So I have a strange issue where when you enable Pretty URL's you are unable to post, you type your post and press "post" and it just resets the form and nothing gets posted.

Navigation seems to work ok (except action URLs).

I have copied .htaccess as requested from the install folder, does it with a brand new install as well as an import (just updated Wedge today) and I have checked the paths are correct.

PS: I like the home button actually does something now, ballin;.

So I have (using @Nao fixes) been able to get all of the Pretty URL's working, however this issue is still present.

Essentially the posting just doesn't work, it clears the form and doesn't do anything.

Did you try to disable action URLs? With the other filters enabled? Does it work?

Have tried disabling action and the rest enabled and nothing, tried post and topics 1 by 1 and fails, disable both and works.

Action Enabled with Board and Topics disabled works ok also.

Ok so I have noticed that wedge.Org has those numbers also so must not be that.

Yes, actually you can remove everything after the topic number (the human-readable part), your URL will still work... That's because Wedge doesn't waste time looking up a topic name in the DB to match it with a topic ID. It's more practical, I think, even if topic IDs aren't too cool, but at least they indicate whether a topic is older than another, etc.

Regarding your problem... I'm thinking, maybe it's due to the fact that you're in a sub-folder..?
Have you tried on a root folder..?

It is the root of that virtual host, the forum is located at forum.bunston.net

If it's too hard or time consuming I'll just stick with normal URLs

Well, I'll need FTP access and a forum account (admin if you can, otherwise a regular account if you remember to re-enable all filters).
I'm not giving up on PURLs, myself...

@Bunstonious, okay... Your FTP sucks. It doesn't like my favorite client, so I had to install FileZilla (which I dislike), and then it took over a minute to connect, and even then, the LIST commands always ends up timing out. I don't know what your host is, but they're really, really bad.
"I" host it :p

FTP works internally but I suspect external FTP runs like balls because my uploads are shite, or there is a firewall issue (still working on it). I haven't looked at it before now because I have SSH access.

Now, onto your problem...

I went to see your index.php file through your web access, and... Where the hell is the upgrader code?!
It looks like your files are all dated February 14, which is before my changes.

Did you revert your forum back to an older version, or something...? Because I'm not going to upload all files "like that", given how hard it is to handle your file system... :-/
Nah I can update them, 14th I think was the last update and I figured since it persisted since before I updated, and you didn't know what the problem was that updating every day probably wouldn't help, will do that soon.

Upgrade seemed to work ok,

Same issue.

Interesting Development.

It works ok with everything ticked but "Board URLs", as soon as that is ticked it breaks.

Which is interesting because the topic URL option also prettifies the Board URL when you are in a topic.

What's also interesting is that the "Mark as solved" plugin doesn't do anything if Topic Pretty URLs are enabled.
