It seems a bit strange having to have template and skip-template in the custom query, but it works.

Thank you.

Code

$result = perch_collection('301 Redirects', [
'filter'=>'old_url',
'match'=>'eq',
'value'=>$reqstring,
'count'=>1,
'template' => '301_redirects.html', //<-- added
'skip-template' => true,
'return-html' => true,
]);

This great post form the old forum by Shane Lenzen shows how we can set up a Collection called 301 Redirects. In this Collection you can set page redirections!

https://forum.grabaperch.com/f…p-301-redirect-collection

However, I am finding that when the 404 is triggered I get a couple of PHP errors and I'd like to iron them out. Can anyone help?

The errors are:

Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in /Users/simonclay/Dropbox/Clients/Wycombe Homeless Connection/Wycombe Homeless Website/Site Folder/perch/core/runway/apps/content/PerchContent_Runway.class.php on line 426

Warning: array_filter() expects parameter 1 to be array, string given in /Users/simonclay/Dropbox/Clients/Wycombe Homeless Connection/Wycombe Homeless Website/Site Folder/perch/templates/pages/errors/404.php on line 23

The 404.php page code:

PHP

<?php
// get URL with parameters and set variable
$array[]= parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
if (empty($array[0]['query'])) {
$reqstring="{$array[0]['path']}";
}
else {
$reqstring="{$array[0]['path']}?{$array[0]['query']}";
}
// check 301 collection for old URL
$result = perch_collection('301 Redirects', [
'filter'=>'old_url',
'match'=>'eq',
'value'=>$reqstring,
'count'=>1,
'skip-template' => true,
'return-html' => true,
]);
// 301 exists, send 301 header and forward to new URL
if (!empty(array_filter($result))) { // <-- THIS IS LINE 23
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: ".$result[0]['new_url']);
}
// no 301 found, send 404 header and output your 404 markup. if you use mine, be sure to change the email address in the link!
else {
echo('Sorry, that page could not be found.');
?>

Just wanted to say thank you Byron, you were right about the includes!

Unfortunately I have a couple of php errors, but I'll post that in another thread.

Thanks again.

SimonClay · Nov 16th 2021

That is the one chopperoon. Thanks so much.

SimonClay · Nov 16th 2021

No, I definitely want to keep it in admin. Just not accessible at the front end.

Basically, the client wants to take the page down, but keep it for use again in the future.

SimonClay · Nov 16th 2021

Hi all, I am wondering what method you would use to un-publish a page, so as not to delete it, but make it not publicly accessible?

SimonClay · Oct 6th 2021

Hi, I am finding that when I use

Code

<perch:content id="text" type="textarea" label="Text" html editor="redactor" imagewidth="686">

Perch does not down-size and use the smaller image in the output. (I am uploading a wider image than the specified 686px).

Is anyone else experiencing this?

SimonClay · Oct 6th 2021

That's a balanced response Byron, I agree.

Hopefully, if I can sort out the issue on the other thread you are helping me with, I can use a method to push posts not found to 404.

For my Post Page:

For my 404 page:

PHP

<?php
// get URL with parameters and set variable
$array[]= parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
if (empty($array[0]['query'])) {
$reqstring="{$array[0]['path']}";
}
else {
$reqstring="{$array[0]['path']}?{$array[0]['query']}";
}
// check 301 collection for old URL
$result = perch_collection('301 Redirects', [
'filter'=>'old_url',
'match'=>'eq',
'value'=>$reqstring,
'count'=>1,
'skip-template' => true,
'return-html' => true,
]);
// 301 exists, send 301 header and forward to new URL
if (!empty(array_filter($result))) {
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: ".$result[0]['new_url']);
}
// no 301 found, send 404 header and output your 404 markup.
else {
$pageTitle = perch_pages_title(true);
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/includes/header.php');
?>
<section class="title-bar gradient-bg">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row align-items-center">
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 50px;">
<h1>

Currently in Runway, if a blog post is not found, the visitor sees a page with no content between the header and footer.

We can use the <perch:noresults></perch:noresults> tags in perch/templates/blog/post.html to display a message like 'Sorry that item could not be found'.

But really, the page should be re-directed to 404, don't you think?

<?php perch_blog_post(perch_get('s')); ?> should do this by default in my opinion.

SimonClay · Oct 5th 2021

I am finding that 'echos' the whole 404 page into the place where the post would go, including the header, error message and footer.

SimonClay · Oct 5th 2021

Thanks very much Byron, I will take a look at that.

SimonClay · Oct 5th 2021

This great post form the old forum by Shane Lenzen shows how we can set up a Collection called 301 Redirects. In this Collection you can set page redirections!

https://forum.grabaperch.com/f…p-301-redirect-collection

However, I find that the redirects only work on Pages, not when trying to redirect Blog items, or any other Collection item. I guess this is something to do with routing.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how this could be overcome?

SimonClay · Sep 21st 2021

Thanks very much Matt A , will do.

SimonClay · Sep 21st 2021

Thanks nilsmielke, yes, I can now see the difference accounts.grabaperch and account.perchcms

I think historically I usually go to accounts.perch

Thanks for pointing it out.

SimonClay · Sep 21st 2021

Visiting https://accounts.grabaperch.com/ results in 'Your connection is not private' message. The SSL certificate seems to have expired or is invalid.

It would not be good to enter login details over an unsecure network.

Is there a known issue?

Gareth S Matt A Will B this is appalling. What is going on?

SimonClay · Sep 3rd 2021

Gareth S there has been no communication from the team whatsoever this week. Are you aware of that?
