Articles problem

Post by rj »

Going to the full blog or a category is no problem.

When you go to an individual article the sidebars lose all graphics and videos and when you hit the LOG IN button you get that default serenedipity counter thingy. Plus other things have gone flakey.

In the address bar if I add "index.php?" to articles it all works. In the address bar if I remove "archives" the log in works.
Whats the matter ya think? :)

Hi!

Your sidebar graphics surely are referencing the wrong urls. If you use url rewriting and your articles are in /archive then the sidebar links must point to /images/... instead of images/ for example.

So either turn off URL rewriting, or fix up the HTML code in your sidebars. :)

That worked! Thanx...

But what does turing off the Apache rewriting do exactly, how much affect does it have on SEO issues?

Without turning rewriting off but fixing the grapic relative paths...
In article mode the sidebar graphics worked fine. But the videos going to their xml file which are full paths didnt work and neither did the login link which still defaulted to the serentipity counter thingy.

Thanx again

Hi!

Turning it off touches many parts of SEO, it mages URLs uglier and score lower in google. I'd rather suggest you to use proper absolute (or relative to the document root) adressing for your HTML nuggets.
