Help with htaccess and news manager - kate - 2012-02-03
Not sure if this question should be in plugin section or general so apologies in advance if it's in the wrong place.
I installed the News Manager plugin, and after tweaking with the language file I managed to get some test posts on a page. My problem is with pretty URLs for the individual posts and I don't know if it's the htaccess rewrites or something in the plugin functions.
Basically the url is missing a slash between the parent page and the post page so I'm getting this:
http://localhost/mysite.co.uk/myblogpost/test-new-post
instead of this:
http://localhost/mysite.co.uk/myblog/post/test-new-post
After going round in circles for most of last night and a couple of hours tonight I figured it was time to ask for help. I changed the htaccess as suggested on the plugin but have not idea if it's something in there or in the functions file that I need to fix? Pretty urls work fine on the rest of the site.
Code:
RewriteRule ^myblog/tag/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=myblog&tag=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^myblog/post/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=myblog&post=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^myblog/page/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=myblog&page=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^myblog/archive/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=myblog&archive=$1 [L]Can anyone help with this?
Thanks!

Kate,
well, at the german getsimple-site, we have the news in a page called "blog":
http://www.get-simple.de/blog/
the URL of the news are f.e.: http://www.get-simple.de/blog/post/getsimple-31beta
so for us it is working. Our .htaccess-rules for the newsmanager are these:
Code:
# Newsmanager-Regeln für Fancy URLs
RewriteRule ^blog/tag/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=blog&tag=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/post/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=blog&post=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/page/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=blog&page=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^blog/archive/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?id=blog&archive=$1 [L]I do not see a difference, so we need more info
which PHP-Version
what Host, Apache?
which GetSimple-Version?
which NewsManager-Version?
what do you mean with fixing the "function-file"?

Hi Connie, I'm using Wamp for testing and the versions below. I was referring to the functions.php file of the news manager plugin as I saw a reference to the function nm_get_url mentioned somewhere else in the forum.
PHP Version : 5.3.8
Apache Version : 2.2.21
GS 3.0
News Manager 2.2.4

Kate,
this sounds good but I would better test this on a host
I experienced problems with .htaccess on WAMP which did not happen in "real life" ;=)
so make a short test on a life sistem and check whether it is ok there

I tried installing News Manager on a live testing site, but still have the same problem with pretty URLs. They're still missing a slash between the parent page and post so instead of parent/post/slug I still get parentpost/slug.
My rewrite rules are exactly as Connie suggested above, directly copied and pasted from the News Manager settings for htaccess.
Does anyone else have any suggestions? I really like the plugin but this is driving me mad!
Thanks once again
Kate

Do you have a custom permalink structure set in GetSimple?

What do you get when you click on a news post?
Have you enabled canonical redirect in gsconfig?

Ohh! my bad, thank you, that was the problem. Now, why the news date is not showing up?

Are you using WAMP/XAMPP? See this: http://get-simple.info/forum/post/31331/#p31331
(Anyway, here we're offtopic; better using that thread for News Manager-related issues.)
