Placeholder trick not working with int. AddOn
Permalink Browser Info Environment
Hi Guys,
to get placeholders (for drop down menus) without direct to first page underneath e.g.
about
- vitae
- awards
- filmography
work
- commercials
- film
- documentation
I can use the "pages" "about" and "work" as external link, linked to #. That works well for smaller sites. The URL is something like "mysite.com/filmoraphy" and not "mysite.com/about/filmoraphy".
After installing the Internationalization AddOn the URL looks like this "mysite.com/en/127/filmoraphy". The placeholder was changed into a page, called 127. If I go to this page, I get an Error: "Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS)". Maybe it has to do how the AddOn is generating the URLs ?
Maybe there is an other way to create placeholders in menus. At this time concrete5 don't offer that. I think it's important (touch screens on mobile devices e.g.).
Any Idea how to get back the URL without the 127 in?
Best Regards
Torsten

Hi Korvin,
the language part is OK. I just need to remove the number (127).

Hi,
I'm not sue I fully understand the placeholder techinique, but it seems like you are creating a link to # so that it does not actually go anywhere and then maybe creating some javascript etc.
Did you try creating a new "about" placeholder external link and then dragging the files under this mysterious 127 page under "about" and deleting 127? Do all of this from the "Full Sitemap" page.
Best Wishes,
Mike

Hi Torsten,
I know this is an old thread, but I'm having exactly the same issue with our site. Did you get to the bottom of this? I've been searching for days through the forum without any luck. I find it strange the system is not managing this correctly when using the internationalisation addon when this technique works perfectly in monolingual sites (Bug with the module?)

Is this something you don't want?
