Would you please explain in details how to use WrapURL plug-in

How do I define permalink

Kind regards

I assume you have already installed the wrapurl plugin. Go to your serendipity admin suite, go to configure plugins, click on the title of the wrapurl plugin.

The wrapurl plugin allows you to setup a page that shows foreign content, but embeds the usual layout of your blog. Thus, you need to tell the WrapURL plugin which URL to wrap, and on which page this should be available.

Now in the configuration enter these values:

Headline: Google
Permalink: /path/to/your/blog/index.php?/wpages/google.html
URL shorthand name: googleurl
The URL: http://www.google.com/

Now save the plugin. Now, the page you configured as permalink will be used to serve you the wrapped page for Google. Open your blog via http://host/path/to/your/blog/index.php ... oogle.html or via http://http://host/path/to/your/blog/in ... =googleurl

As you can see, you can either use the configured permalink to access this page, or via the shorthand url name plus a subpage command.

On the page you now opened you will see the Google page wrapped in your blog's layout.

Hey,

yes it works with [subpage] but not with wpages, how does that come?

Thanks for your help

Kind regards

Jensolav

I don't know, you need to tell me what exactly you entered as the permalink, then I can tell you what's wrong

Best regards,

Hey again,

that's my permalink

http://bjoerchmart.dk/serendipity/index ... oogle.html

Can you figure that out?

Kind regards

Jensolav

Okay, so the link below is the one you configured for the plugin, right? Then that's wrong, you need to enter this as the permalink:

/serendipity/index.php?/wpages/google.html

The permalink only takes the HTTP string, not the Hostname or a "http://" prefix.
