Relative_url_root issues – incorrect "Latest" link, incorrect redirect

[akvadrako (Devin Bayer)]

I am using discourse 2.6.0.beta1 with relative_url_root = /forum and I have noticed a couple issues.

One issue is that several links, for example “Latest” on the main page, point to /latest instead of /forum/latest. The links do work, but the status bar shows the incorrect value when hovering.

Another issue is that I was trying to see if I could make links to categories without the trailing number, like /forum/c/staff. This doesn’t work because it redirects to /forum/forum/c/staff/3.

They are not major problems, but I thought I would report them since it doesn’t seem like they are known bugs.

Subfolder issues do creep in. Are you on latest?

[akvadrako (Devin Bayer)]

I have just upgraded to latest and I see the same behavior.

I’m seeing admin confirmation links with the relaztive_url_root duplicated on 2.5.0.

“Latest” on the main page, point to /latest instead of /forum/latest .

I’m seeing admin confirmation links with the relaztive_url_root duplicated on 2.5.0.

I’m unable to repro both of the above issues on latest Discourse version.

Thanks, Arpit. These people (whose installation I’m not managing) are on 2.5.0. Can you help me understand where confirm_admin_url gets defined so that I can confirm that it’s a bug in their version of Discourse?

Subfolder install: admin email confirmation url has subfolder duplicated

This is on 2.5.0. The admin confirmation URL in the email has subfolder duplicated. like https://www.example.com/subfolder/subfolder/u/confirm-admin/key. I’m looking at https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/mailers/admin_confirmation_mailer.rb#L12 it appears to call something called confirm_admin_url, but I can’t find where that’s defined. I’m not sure where to look to see if it’s a bug or some configuration issue (but this is the only place this problem is showing up).

Thanks.

I just replied on above topic.
