Re: [brewt] glinks test -- Search Results Navigation bug In reply to
    
(A)
Access the home page in dynamic mode.
Do a search
Every part of navigation on search results page works fine (checked on ie and firefox)

(B)
Access the home page in static mode
Do a search (same query word as in above)
The drop down (js navigation) fails with the error as already posted in my previous post (both on ie and firefox)

In Both the cases above there is no impact of any Admin>Setup>Search Options changes. While js navigation on search results always fails in (B), it's ok in (A). In my earlier post i had not checked on the dynamic mode so thought that Admin changes were causing the error. But it's the static mode which is causing this.

[EDIT]
Added a hidden field name="d" value="1" to include_header.html and it fixes the error. Not too sue if this is the correct way as it gives 2 d=1 to the graphics button and the address bar when using the frop down jump gives this:

d=ARRAY%25280x86289f0%

Extending further on my previous message:

Similar thing happens in following scenario also (all perhps not having d=1)
  • when searched from Advanced Search (clicking Adcanced Search from static mode home page or elsewhere).
  • a user does a search after clicking and logging from static mode.
The combination could be many (bookmark.cgi/newsletter.cgi --> login -->search) etc. I confirm this on unmodified luna template set also (in static mode).

Hi

Just needed to confirm if this is a bug.
I had seen a similar d=ARRAY type of error on a test install put up by slashdemocracy dot org though could not get to see any failure of search results page navigation (js drop down -- search done after static mode access) as most of the test installs look to be clean installs.

If u need access to admin panel do let me know.

Thanks

Thanks

Any news on this search results navigation page failure bug when site is accessed in static mode to start with. Can this be confirmed on any other test installs. Tried searching for the same on posted links to glinks3 test installs but since most of them looked to be clean installs with just one link or so, couldn't really confirm.

GT staff.. any confirmation on this? A sudden lul after the initial burst.

Thanks

Re: [brewt] glinks test -- Review Page Jump Also Fails In reply to
Reviews Page Jump Also Fails With Similar Error:

In static mode the js drop down navigation also fails on "Read Reviews" while jumping from any page of Review list to any other page of the same. So this is identical to failure of the same in search navigation.

When the site is accessed in dynamic mode to start with no such error.

Is it a bug?

Thanks

Your bugs are in my queue of things to do. I'll reply when I get to them and figure out what's wrong.

(A) Observations:

Search Weight settings lost on upgrade.
Indexing Scheme settings lost on upgrade.
In Reply To:
(1). All ENUM type proerty lost during upgrade
(had few custom columns added in the original working install)

[EDIT] Custom textarea columns get converted to text upon upgrade[/EDIT]
Couldn't replicate any of that behaviour. Created a new 2.2.1 installation, modified and added new search weights, changed the indexing scheme and rebuilt search, added columns of ENUM type and added a TEXT column (with TEXTAREA form display). Upgraded it to 2.99.0 and everything was the same after upgrade.

PS: there is no TEXTAREA column type. TEXTAREAs are only applicable to the form display.

Thanks.
Problem with the dump file then?
Used Mysqlman of links 2.2.0 for the first time:

Link_Header enum('No','Yes') DEFAULT 'No' NOT NULL ,
Link_Footer enum('No','Yes') DEFAULT 'No' NOT NULL ,
Link_Icon enum('No','Yes') DEFAULT 'No' NOT NULL ,


All this is displayed as : ENUM(No, Yes) Yes No Text
That Text should have been SELECT. Is it that MySQLMan Dump conked off?

[EDIT]
(Links 2.2.0 )Same issue on Category Image Column that was added. Displayed as Text so no way to get the images back?? Anyway, droppping off Cat Images anyway with performance in mind, but if this is a iissue with MysqlMan dumps, then moral of the story:

Do it from ssh :)

Yes, it was a bug in the paging code, so it affected any paging which used the 'url' style paging (there's a few places).
