What I want to do is to make a link that in the browser looks like this:
http://www.showedlink.com/media/page.html but in the back it points to http://www.mywebsite/com/media/demo/page.html
I want to know if it's possible to do a full url rewrite like that.
PS: the user must see this http://www.showedlink.com/media/page.html link when it's on the page.
Thanks!!

I am trying to export an existing php-based dynamic webpage into a lektor project which up to now really worked well.
Unfortunately one problem is giving me a headache:
While my navigation works perfectly with every page and subpage, links to subpages in the content section don't.
E.g. if I set a relative path like
[My Link to Subpage](/peter/personalinfo)
it is correctly shown in the browser view. If I hover the mouse over the link the browser shows the correct url 127.0.0.1:5000/peter/personalinfo.
But if I click it I get
Not Found
The requested URL was not found on the server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
and the url in the address field shows
127.0.0.1:5000/peter/peter/personalinfo
So I click the correct url but the browser calls the wrong url and of course can't find anything there.
I don't understand how this doubling can happen. I naively would expect that if I clicked a link the browser would exactly look at that address. But it seems like the server is redirecting to the malformed url. And yes, it does so with any link to a subpage.
the navigation looks like this:
Home
News
Peter
-- Personalinfo
-- Contact
-- Portfolio
Bob
-- Personalinfo
-- Contact
-- Portfolio
Any idea why this happens and how to change it?
Update: The problem doesn't appear with the built static page on a webserver.
there is an open issue (#997) that is already fixed and will be released soon. But you can fix this yourself, just append a slash at the end of your link [My Link to Subpage](/peter/personalinfo/)
Now I am developing an application by using CodeIgniter framework. In this application, there is a section which name account setup. By using this section we can create multiple accounts. As an example, accounts name are abc, bca or anything. And Suppose my site URL is: www.xyz.com (base_url) Then we need to access the site by the domain name and also domain name with account name like bellow:
www.xyz.com
www.xyz.com/abc/
www.xyz.com/bca/
www.xyz.com/anything/
For More clear, URL pattern will be:
www.xyz.com/dashboard/index
www.xyz.com/abc/dashboard/index
www.xyz.com/bca/dashboard/index
How can we do it? I need your suggestion.
Yes it's Possible through codeigniter Routs.
Go to application\config Open a file which Name is routes.php
you can call the controller functions see in code example
example
$route['new_project'] = "controller/function";
when you hit your website url like this www.xyz.com/new_project it will go to your mention controller and function.
see the documentation of routs CodeIgniter URI Routing
example 2:
$route['account/(.*)'] = "controller/function";
Now we you redirect your url like this
redirect('account/'.$name_var.'');
Now your url look like this.
www.xyz.com/account/name_of_logged_in_user
Also you can use this like this.
$route['(.*)/dashboard/index'] = "controller/function";
And then you can call it like this.
redirect(''.$name_var.'/dashboard/index');
And from this code your output url show something like this.
www.xyz.com/name_of_logged_in_user/dashboard/index
Hope it will help you if any question add comment
There are many way to do it.
1) Domain alias if you want to run same script with different domain.
2) if you want to run same script with sub domain then you can do it from Cpanel
3) If you want to run same script with different folders in same domain then you need to use htaccess
This is my first question here, so Hi all! ^^
I created a website with codeigniter framework and I have inserted a module for multilanguage. The url looks like this:
http://www.mywebsite.com/en/controller/function
The problem came when the client wanted to send a newsletter to all its customers in another language, but do not want to send the url with the controler with the name in english, because the newsletter is for spanish users.So:
URL is going to be send:
http://www.mywebsite.com/es/thecontroller
URL the client wants to be send ("elcontrolador" is "thecontroler" in spanish):
http://www.mywebsite.com/es/elcontrolador
I dont want to create another controler named "elcontorlador" only to show the same page as "thecontroler", because we don't want duplicate content for SEO purposes.
So, i want via .htaccess, a rule that when i type
http://www.mywebsite.com/es/elcontrolador
in the URL, mywebpage shows the info of
http://www.mywebsite.com/es/thecontroler
but with the URL
http://www.mywebsite.com/es/elcontrolador
(the controler "elcontrolador" doesnt exist).
So, is there any way to do this with the htaccess? I've tried it myself but I failed miserably i come here desperate, because I run out of time to deliver it and can not find a viable solution. I'll have to create the extra controller?
Need help D:
Maybe you can use the route config file instead to achieve this ?
$route['es/elcontrolador'] = 'es/thecontroler';
I don't know how you handle your multilangage, but you've got the idea.
I'd like to implement custom URL for our Magento's basket. Magento out-of-the-box url paht is /checkout/cart but client request /checkout/bag.
I tried to somehow
* URL rewrite management in backend - it works, but I need to update all occurences in code to new url, because $this->getUrl('checkout/cart') doesnt translate into checkout/bag
* also I tried to follow some advices from http://alanstorm.com/magento_dispatch_rewrites_intro but basicaly it doesnt help me too.
* also I tried example from this post http://phprelated.myworks.ro/two-add-to-cart-buttons-with-different-redirect-actions-at-once-in-magnto/
So, is there any way how can I rewrite translation from path 'checkout/cart' into checkout/bag without updating all ocurrences in our templates and classes $this->getUrl('checkout/cart')
Any solution depending on web server architecture are not the ultimate solution.
I found solution
1) I rewrited model core/url to have desired output
EDIT 1 - sample implementation https://gist.github.com/jaromirmuller/132cdd9378e5b1018170
2) Added url rewrite into config.xml which rewrites url path from /checkout/bag to /checkout/cart
<global>
<rewrite>
<mynamespace_mymodule_checkout_cart>
<from><![CDATA[#^/checkout/bag#]]></from>
<to>/checkout/cart</to>
</mynamespace_mymodule_checkout_cart>
</rewrite>
</global>
3) Added url rewrite into Catalog > URL rewrite management which handles if anyone comes to /checkout/cart then he's redirected to /checkout/bag paht which is correct.
These 3 points makes site consisten and working without any issues. That's the easises way without rewriting tons of templates and classes.
The way Url Rewrites work means that you have some url test.com/some on the page and when you click on it, you'll get test.com/some2 instead. So Rewrites do not change the actual anchor link - they change the destination of that link to the new recipient.
There is no easy solution which will change all of the anchor links to the new ones (aside from parsing and replacing links on each page - which is not preferable).
So if you want to leave anchor links as they are and get the new Url after user clicks on the link, you should go with Url Rewrites. Though if you want to change the actual links on the page, you need to search for all occurrences and change them manually.
Mage::getUrl() is not a fabric which operates with aliases (like Mage::getModel()) - you'll get from it what you have inserted, and the only way to change the outcome Url is to change income parameters.
You can do it using apache url rewrites. Something like
RewriteRule ^/checkout/cart(.*)$ /checkout/bag$1 [R=301,NC,L]
This answer works for changing the wishlist name by changing the frontend routers in app/etc/local.xml. Maybe it can be adapted for your uses?
Change wishlist url in magento
To manage more url translation You can use this module:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/catalog/product/view/id/18160/
What’s the best way to change the theme or store view of a site based on the referring URL?
I have the following scenario:
SiteA.com with custom theme
SiteB.com sends traffic to SiteA.com
When that traffic arrives, I’d like it to have a different header, footer and some css overrides.
How can I accomplish this?
Main index.php file is best place to do this. Examine the referring url and change params passed to Mage::run method on line 88;
Mage::run($mageRunCode, $mageRunType);
I found this page, Change Store View by Referrer URL, I believe this may solve my problem.
