different file download path in global area for every page
Permalink
Hi guys,
during SEO optimization I noticed following:
I put a link to a file (via tinyMCE -> add file) in a global area in page footer.
The download link (e.g. mywebsite/index.php/download_file/view/239/144/) is different (the numbers at the end) on most pages of the site.
After scanning the site, the SEO-Tool showed me 40 redirects with HTTP Status: 302 for this file in footer.
Is it a bug or why changes the path on different pages?
Regards
Torsten

The second number is the cID of the current page, but I don't know why it is added. Probably for the stats ?
The first number is always the same (239) If the second is the page ID - why do they appear?
The first number is the file number, the only really useful.
The cID number seems used when the file is password protected.
Details:
1) The download link with the cID is created by:
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/core...
2) And the controller used is:
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/core...
3) In the view, the cID is used in the case of the file is protected by a password, in a hidden field:
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/sing...
4) And finally the cID is used by the submit_password in the controller:
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/core...

Oh, and I was right in my first thought, the cID is used also for tracking stats download in the controller, with the
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/core...
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/core...
The trackDownload function in the File object :
https://github.com/concrete5/concrete5/blob/master/web/concrete/core...
If no cID is provided, 0 is used in the stats.

Thanks for your help :)
Maybe its possible to use "SEO friendly URLs" (as a suggestion for the core team)?
It's not really good for SEO as it is now.
