CMF Routes - Link Changer for Forums and Threads [Deleted]


hmm, it's not a huge deal, but when leaving the field blank, it still uses 'threads' in the url. is there a way to remove the need for 'threads' in the url? if not, it's not a big deal, i'm just curious.

great product by the way, it looks like you've succeeded where all other have failed! (in my opinion)
 
also, i tried entering &.. and &. in the threads field, which renders the urls the way i want, but gives a 404 error.
 
If you want to change 'threads' to 'events' in urls for some nodes you have to enter
events
in the "Route Prefix for Threads" field.
 
i came across an interesting situation today. basically i've been using this plugin to only re-write the urls for category nodes so far. for example, i've re-written:

https://squattheplanet.com/categories/equipment-gear.217/

to be

https://squattheplanet.com/equipment-gear/

which works fine. but when i do this my forum nodes in that category (that are being re-routed by the default xf routes) stop working. the default url is:

forums/general-gear-discussion.216/

which is being re-routed to

equipment-gear/gear-discussion/

the url renders correctly:

https://squattheplanet.com/equipment-gear/gear-discussion/

but i get a not found error. obviously, i could use cmf routes for the sub-forums, but i just wanted to point out this incompatibility between routing with cmf and xf routes in case this was not the intended functionality.
 
it seems that you cannot combine CMF routes with the default XF route filters if the parent category is controlled by CMF, and the child is controlled by XF. so far this seems to only apply to category nodes (routed by CMF) and child forum nodes (routed by XF).

if you'd like an admin account to test with, i'd be happy to give you one.
 
@electrogypsy I've answered in your conversations about admin access.
Because some problem may exists if modify route for the same node by xf route filters and this add-on at the same time. But it changing of the route of one node does not affect to route filtering of other nodes.
 
Could this addon be used to create incoming 301 redirects? For XF route filters only allow 25 characters maximum and placing thousands of redirections in htaccess impacts performance, so I'm looking for an alternative solution.
Thanks
