TYPO3 Core

Ok, the issue with Typo3 4.3+ was actually smaller than I expected...

The problem was that ods_multiple_pagealias relies on the output of simulatestatic in terms of resolving the URI. Since simulatestatic is now an extension itself and uses the same hook as ods_multiple_pagealias, the two may be executed in the wrong order .

All you have to make sure of, is that "ods_multiple_pagealias" is listed after "simulatestatic" in $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']['extList'] and ['extList_FE']. Then the extension still works flawlessly.

Regardless of this, I still think this behavior should become the default. To achieve this, it would be best to first modify the function "class.t3lib_page->getPageIdFromAlias" accordingly.

After that, you would of course also have to adopt the advanced alias duplicate check the extension now implements through processDatamap_preProcessFieldArray.

This is also very desirable in 6.2

Hey,

this issue should be fixed with 9 LTS and site handling by using the new Page based URL routing. Please let us know if the new version will solve your issue, otherwise we'll close this ticket in the next weeks.

I think it's fixed, aliases were treated as a slug before 9 LTS.

With 9 LTS the alias feature is gone, there is no field anymore.

I've not tested yet, but is the handler syntax with alias still working?

What I'm missing is a real alias which is transformed in the uid and only that (no URL handling).

My use case is: with a multiple root pages, it's common to have a contact page (for example) for each site. Today I need TypoScript constants for each contact page, but it would be nice to have an alias field for each page, and in my Fluid templates be able to link to the alias, like the handler syntax t3://page?alias=contact.
The URL would be handled by the slug.

• www.example.net/nous-contacter (alias: contact)
• www.example.com/contact-us (alias: contact)

Maybe I should open a new issue for that case.
