Im using DNN 05.01.04 (3)

When i move a page to another level in the navigational hierarchy all the links referencing this page no longer work. Let me try explain

there are two issues:

I setup a test page called Ryan Testing and added two pages underneath that called page1 and page2. Page one has a text link to page 2 on it

So the URLs Before moving:

Ryan Testing
https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/RyanTesting.aspx

Page 1
https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/RyanTesting/Page1.aspx
Link on this page that points to page 2 (https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/RyanTesting/Page2.aspx)

Page 2
https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/RyanTesting/Page2.aspx

URL After moving under HOME link

https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/Home/RyanTesting.aspx

Page 1
https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/Home/RyanTesting/Page1.aspx

Problem one: Link on this page no longer works as it is still pointing to https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/RyanTesting/Page2.aspx instead of automatically changing to https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/Home/RyanTesting/Page2.aspx

Page 2
https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/Home/RyanTesting/Page2.aspx


So lets move it back out of Home to its original position


Problem 2    however page one URL remains https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/Home/RyanTesting/Page1.aspx
Page 2 same problem https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/Home/RyanTesting/Page2.aspx

they should now be https://www.olg.co.za/olgdnn/RyanTesting/Page1.aspx (without the "Home") but for some reason they keep the home and ofcourse the links on any pages are further compromised.

 

I have friendly url enabled and I do not track links clicked.  Problem 1: When creating a link it places an absolute url instead of relative.

Hope this all makes sence.

ok so it was probably a dumb question :)

anyway untill DNN sort out the reletive paths for links the only way to avoid this issue is to select "Track Number Of Times This Link Is Clicked?" when creating a link to a page within your site.

 

hope this helps
