[Fixed] Click "read more" the category links screw up

[mlbier]

I looked in the forum and could not find an answer so don't beat me up if it is in here. I finally got me MOD RE WRITE working great but found a small error. When I click 'READ MORE" in any of my posts the category links listed in the side bar change change from example:

mysite.com/music

to

mysite.com/music/The-story-I-am-reading/tech

So basically the begining of the link is fine "mysite.com/music/The-story-I-am-reading"

Notice the correct category "MUSIC" starts the url then the story title "The-story-I-am-reading" followed by the category I hover over while on the READ MORE page is appended to the url, in this case TECH

So it looks like mysite.com/The-story-I-am-reading/tech ..it should be simply mysite.com/tech. This only happend when I click read more on any post.

Similarly if I were to hover over the Gadgets category while I am on a read more page the url would show "mysite.com/music/The-story-I-am-reading/gadgets.

when it should be mysite.com/gadgets. My category links work on all other pages

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Try this bug fix http://pligg.svn.sourceforge.net/vie...v&revision=526

It may say to change a file in another template but it should work the same for all template.

whooops this was in the wrong spot

I tried it out on digitalnature and got this:


Warning: filemtime(): Stat failed for templates/digitalnature/sidebar_modules/categories.tpl (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /home/iblotsx/public_html/class.template.php on line 615

[kbeeveer46]

hmm.. did you copy the entire file over? You should click on "text changed" to see what code was changed and only change that. If that's what you did then you really messed something up because that error doesn't have anything to do with that fix.

Thanks kbeeveer46, That fixed it in digitalnature, I am using someone's DIGG template and the categories are in the header. Not bad for me since I will only have a few categories. If you have time this is my header.tpl with categories in it. I dont know what to edit or paste from the tpl file you had me load into my sidebar_modules folder. If you have time and can help what do I need to edit in this TPL file in order to fix the category bug:

Perfect!

Thanks kbeeveer46, hat did it. I will look over the code to find the changes but the categories work now.

Thanks again for your help

[mlbier]

OK found another error:

I added the fix above and now all my sidebar categories look great when I click READ MORE on a story.

New error. If I click on a category in my sidebar such as GADGETS it will take me to mysite.com/gadgets

But when I look at my top tool bar and click on any of the hyperlinks connected to these words:
Upcoming (0)
This Month
This Week
Yesterday
Top Today
Recently Popular

I am sent to a 404 error page.

Example:

Upcoming is linked to : http://mysite/category/shakeit.php?p...coming&order=1
This month is linked to
http://mysite/category/index.php?part=month

All links go to error page - Sorry I am a noob but quickly getting my way around Pligg.

Thanks in advance
