Hi,

I have 3 pages on my site http://dev.teenstreet.org.au where uses can write a new post:

1. Add Page (Menu item > EasyBlog Write Layout > /admin/add-page)
2. Add News (Menu item > EasyBlog Write Layout > /admin/add-news)
3. Add Event (Menu item > EasyBlog Write Layout > /admin/add-event)

After a post is submitted using either Add News or Add Event, if a user wants to edit their post, the edit page has this URL: /admin/add-page/dashboard/write?blogid=

Why are they routed through the add-page url? They should either be routed though add-news or add-event.

Does that make sense?

Thanks

Ian

Hello Ian Anderson,

Sorry for late reply to this,
I have take a look of this, unfortunately that was not possible to do this, because the system do not know which menu item will be use it, so that system always get this "Add-Page" <- whatever you edit which category post.

Hi,

I'm still confused at the routing behaviour on my site.

Why does the system not know which menu item to use?

1. Every time I add or edit a new post, not matter what category I assign it to, it always redirects to the menu item /news
2. If I try to "edit" ANY blog, the url goes to /admin/add-to-2015 (I presume because this is the top level??)

For example:
1. Clicking "Continue Reading" here: http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles goes to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/news/entry/ts-roles/teen ...it SHOULD go to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles/entry/ts-roles/teen

2. Then when you try to edit this post, it goes to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/admin/add-to-2015/dashboard/write?blogid=11 ...it SHOULD go to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles/dashboard/write?blogid=11

Thanks for your help

Hello Ian Anderson,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Please find your answer in your queries below :
1. Clicking "Continue Reading" here: http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles goes to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/news/entry/ts-roles/teen ...it SHOULD go to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles/entry/ts-roles/teen
>> Hmm, it will not go to this URL -> http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles/entry/ts-roles/teen is because see the format of URL SEO behaviour below.


//http://yourSiteDomainName/ComponentName/entry/CategoryName/BlogTitle

http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/news/entry/ts-roles/teen



//It will not link to -> get-involved <- this Articles ยป Single Article menu item


2. Then when you try to edit this post, it goes to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/admin/add-to-2015/dashboard/write?blogid=11 ...it SHOULD go to http://dev.teenstreet.org.au/get-involved/ts-roles/dashboard/write?blogid=11
>> Unfortunately that was not possible to do this in current system.
>> Which means that it will always use back as you mentioned "add-to-2015" menu item alias when you to do the edit.
