[TYPO3-english] RealURL Configuration Help

[Rod Naugler]

Hi all,
For many years I was using a customized version of RealURL which
produced URLs such as:
www.website.com/page1.html
www.website.com/page1/page2.html
www.website.com/page1/page2/page3.html

I have seen several posts here that seem to indicate that the latest
version of RealURL can do this natively. I have been forced to upgrade
one site to Typo3 4.5.7 which broke my previous RealURL so I have loaded
RealURL 1.11.2. I have gone through the manuals and I have tried several
configuration extensions but I have been unable to properly configure
RealURL to produce the proper URLs. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!
Rod Naugler

Hi, Rod.

Possible solutions:
1. Read the manual of realurl.
2. Use some pre-configuration, like cbrealurl extension.
3. Take this basic configuration and extend it to your needs by reading the
manuel anyway ;)
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['realurl'] = array (
'domain.tld' => array (
'init' => array (
'enableCHashCache' => true,
'appendMissingSlash' => 'ifNotFile',
'enableUrlDecodeCache' => true,
'enableUrlEncodeCache' => true,
'emptyUrlReturnValue' => true,
'emptySegmentValue' => '-'
),
'pagePath' => array (
'type' => 'user',
'userFunc' =>
'EXT:realurl/class.tx_realurl_advanced.php:&tx_realurl_advanced->main',
'spaceCharacter' => '-',
'expireDays' => '3',
'rootpage_id' => '1',
'disablePathCache' => false,
'autoUpdatePathCache' => false,
),
'fileName' => array (
'defaultToHTMLsuffixOnPrev' => true,
),
),
);

I read through the manual for realURL, and I understood how to apply
configuration options to an existing configurations but I wasn't able to
determine how to get started.

I hadn't seen the cbrealurl extension, I'll look into that.

Thanks!

Rod

Rod,

Such URLs should be produced by RealURL out-of-the-box (automatic
config). I don't remember if I only add 'defaultToHTMLsuffixOnPrev' => 1
or it was turned on by default :)
So, what kind of URLs you have now? What's the issue? Do you need to
configure RealURL for extensions you use?

Thank you,
Sergey

I don't need to configure realURL for any extensions. I installed and
activated the extension using the default setup from the manual. The
URLs I'm getting are:
www.website.com/page1/
www.website.com/page1/page2/
www.website.com/page1/page2/page3/

I've really gotten away from Typo3 over the past couple of years and
this is a fixup for a site who's host upgraded to PHP5. The site in
question is http://weddingsinfrance.com

Can I just copy/rename the default configuration and tweak it from there?
The addition you mention below, is that in the template or in the config?

Thanks!

Rod

Rod,

Yes, save the original config, then edit default. There is 'fileName'
array, where 'defaultToHTMLsuffixOnPrev' switches .html . Set it to 1
and you should be ok:

'fileName' =>
array (
'defaultToHTMLsuffixOnPrev' => 1,
'acceptHTMLsuffix' => 1,
'index' =>
array (
'print' =>
array (
'keyValues' =>
array (
'type' => 98,
),
),
),
),

OK, I found the problem. There were some hanging on files and settings
from the upgrade that were causing a host of problems. Removed all
configuration extensions, realURL and any mention of realURL in
localconf.php as well as all ext files for anything related. Then loaded
realURL from the server again. Everything came in looking like its
described in the manual this time and that easy change worked. No wonder
I couldn't follow the directions. What I was seeing wasn't the same! :)

Thanks!

Rod

Hi!

loaded realURL from the server again. Everything came in looking like

This is exactly why I always advise against using ANY of "configuration",
"bug fixing" or "improvement" extensions. They usually do more harm than good.

It could do this for recent 4 years.
