4.1 : New url translator system explanation somewhere ?

Tuesday 21 April 2009 6:23:31 am

Hello,

I installed the 4.1 version and i am fighting to understand how works the url translator in the setup tab.

First when i insert a url translation is not visible anymore in the list, its now visible in a separate view "/content/urlalias/5934" but there is no way to access this view except entering it by hand ?

Why all those urltransformation are not simply in "/content/urltranslator" as before ?

Second i can't make redirection from content for exemple : redirecting "/news" to "/home/news" doesn't work if those two pages exists. In this case i am having this validation error :

URL Alias <</news>> already exists and points to <<content/view/full/10793>>

Is it normal ? How can we thus redirect pages to oneanother ? I am lost here.

Hello Gaetano and thanx a lot for your answers.

In my case i use the url translator system to "hide" a parent folder full view that shouldn't be seen.

For exemple i have this tree "Home -> Skateboard -> News".

I don't want users to be able to hit "/skateboard" because its only a folder thats hold subfolders. Instead i want the system to display "/skateboard/news".

Is the new url translator able to deal with this ?

Because in 3.9 or 4.0 the url translator kind of override the node publication url_alias.

If i understand the process, a certain object say "content/view/full/2" can't have multiple url_aliases if those url_aliases already exists ?
