mm_forum

Hi Martin, Yes - I use the realurl configuration coming with mm_forum. Jan's suggestion is probably the right way to go.

Investigated a bit deeper:

1. In the valueMap for the action-parameter the key open_topic is missing:

'forum' => array(
array(
'GETvar' => 'tx_mmforum_pi1[action]',
'valueMap' => array(
'themen' => 'list_topic',
...
'anhaenge' => 'get_attachment',
'neuer_beitrag' => 'open_topic',
),
),
array(
'GETvar' => 'tx_mmforum_pi1[id]',
'cond' => array (
'prevValueInList' => 'open_topic'
),
'lookUpTable' => array(
'table' => 'tx_mmforum_topics' ,
'id_field' => 'uid',
'alias_field' => 'topic_title',
'addWhereClause' => ' AND NOT deleted',
'useUniqueCache' => 1,
'useUniqueCache_conf' => array(
'strtolower' => 1,
'spaceCharacter' => '_',
),
),
),

• for the topic 'tid' and 'id' are used (see example above!)
• 'fid' is used for the forum or a front-end-user
• maybe more...

Thus, the configuration for RealURL will get quite complex because of many prevValueInList-conditions. Is it possible to clean it up in mm_forum and use the parameter names in a unique way? However, this will break compatibility to old RealURL-configurations.

3. Though realUrl_specialLinks is active, not all parameters are appended in every case. E. g. fid/forum-id is missing at open_topic(). There may be more cases. Missing parameters are skipped with RealURL 1.10.0 so that the following parameters can't be mapped correctly. realUrl_specialLinks doesn't apply the complete set of parameters e. g. for the action list_post. I think that can be resolved in realurl_conf.php only by naming those segments explicitely. That's leading to very long URLs. In former versions RealURL probably generated a sequence of slashes in those situations. I haven't tried an older version. Can someone confirm it?
