J3.x, Redirecting issue with com_content links

... yes, I updated - but still no success

Hello,

finally I found it - hooray!

The reason was a wrong setting of default menu item in the item type, or a conflict of this with the SEF setting in global FC configuration.

I somehow must have gone lost in the multitude of settings

Thanks & regards

Hello

hello, thank you
can provide more feedback?

the menu item that caused the issue was of non-FLEXIcontent type ?

i will test this, since it sound like we need to put some check here (about the default menu item)

Hi ggppdk,

what I did was

- testing different appending methods for the ItemID in fc global config SEF settings, selecting the first entry in the selector
- switching the content items type's default menu item from "site content" in flexicontent hidden menu to a fc category menu entry.

This worked for me, and it looked as if this was the reason, so I gave my feedback.

Crazy thing is: I was wrong - the issue is back - and the above reported might be useless

In summary I see a reproduceable difference in processing com_content links without ItemID appended, coming from different categories with identical settings, starting immediately after the template style loading step.

Luckily, I found a workaround: replacing the URL parts with ReReplacer.

BTW: Glad to see updated FC entry in JED finally - congratulations!

Hello

ok thanks for info,

we will re-test redirections of com_content menu items (article view) to flexicontent item view

- if you do not have too many menu items, you could try changing the type of the menu item to make the com_flexicontent
