Hello,
I have a strange redirection to the homepage problem.
When I am connected as and admin in Easyblog and I click on "Posts" I am redirected to the homepage.

<a href="http://content.screencast.com/users/ylaya/folders/Default/media/889e1abf-0d75-40aa-9e78-840d71f10cb7/blogposts.JPG"><img class="embeddedObject" src="http://content.screencast.com/users/ylaya/folders/Default/media/889e1abf-0d75-40aa-9e78-840d71f10cb7/blogposts.JPG" width="297" height="41" border="0" /></a>

The default url is
http://www.xxx.com/blog/dashboard/entries

What I did to try to resolve the problem is, I created a new menu link below my "blog" link named "blog posts" and a redirection with the component ReDJ from :
xxx.com/blog/dashboard/entries
to
xxx.com/blog/blog-posts

in portuguese :
xxx.com/pt/blog/artigos-do-blog/dashboard/entries
to
xxx.com/pt/blog/artigos-do-blog

When I click on my menu item everything works fine but when I click on the
easyblog dashboard "posts" link
I'm always redirected to the homepage, even as a superadmin.

Could you please help me with this issue ?

Thank you very much

Hello Mark,
Thanks for your quick answer.
The website is not finished yet so it is closed to the public for the moment. You have to be connected to the site to access easyblog.
The problem is when I click on this button on the dashboard
<a href="http://content.screencast.com/users/ylaya/folders/Default/media/889e1abf-0d75-40aa-9e78-840d71f10cb7/blogposts.JPG"><img class="embeddedObject" src="http://content.screencast.com/users/ylaya/folders/Default/media/889e1abf-0d75-40aa-9e78-840d71f10cb7/blogposts.JPG" width="297" height="41" border="0" /></a>
--> the one highlighted in orange
I am redirected to the homepage.
I'd like to see all my blogposts intead

Hello Chissy,

I have been testing your site and I believe the redirection is not actually coming from Joomla. It looks like whenever there's a word "entries" in the URL, it get's redirected. I think you should try checking with your web host .

For instance, if I access http://www.vreginacoaching.com/pt/blog/wrong_url , it redirects correctly with proper error message but if I try to access http://www.vreginacoaching.com/pt/blog/entries , it redirects to the front page.

Hello Chissy,

Hm, I am pretty sure that this has nothing to do with Joomla because whenever there is the "entries" keyword in the URL, it get's redirect to the front page of your site without going through the index.php . Perhaps you want to check this with your hosting provider? Maybe there is some 301 redirection rules that gone bad?

Hello Mark,

Everything works fine now... I don't know what redirection caused that problem because I republished all mi redirections and now everything's ok.

Thank You
Chissy
