One of our users reported that the top categories in the user profile generate a permission denied error for their links.
My analysis and investigation is below, from what I can see this is a new feature in git master. add links to Top Categories on user summary page · discourse/discourse@8e5e7c6 · GitHub
Versions
Latest HEAD from today: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/compare/1ca999fdb58558171166e0dfbe10e10b374d3e33...tests-passed
Steps to reproduce
- Navigate to a profile - Summary - Top Categories
- Pick a category which is a sub category to a main one
Example
For example, my profile on https://monitoring-portal.org/u/dnsmichi/summary → “Icinga 2” is a sub category of “Icinga”.
The URL just contains the direct link but misses the /icinga in its path being the main category.
Wrong: https://monitoring-portal.org/c/icinga-2
Correct: https://monitoring-portal.org/c/icinga/icinga-2
Thanks for looking into it, I honestly don’t understand the code ![]()
