I don't really understand your first questions. It is possible your .htaccess doesn't work on your server.

For the doc about tiny urls: http://b2evolution.net/man/slug

Some stuff really takes time. I want revive this old case as i never have followed up on it nor solved the problem. And now we happen to experience the situation again in a new installation. While above mentioned version was 6.9.3., now it is 6.11.0

@fplanque: .htaccess should be working, otherwise b2e would probably not work at all. b2e installation delivers already a lot ...

As a starter, maybe I repeat the first question from above:

For general understanding: should in a healthy setup work ALL options for 'Collection base URL' and/or 'Tag page URLs' (as well as all the other setup-options) given in the backend 'Collection base URL' or is it normal that some options would not function? Talking for example about

Collection base URL:

• Default collection on baseurl http://4forests.net/ (Current default : Home)
• Default collection in index.php http://4forests.net/index.php (Current default : Home)
• Explicit param on index.php http://4forests.net/index.php?blog=3
• Extra path on baseurl http://4forests.net/bla/ (Requires mod_rewrite)
• Extra path on index.php http://4forests.net/index.php/bla/
• Relative to baseurl:http://4forests.net/
• Subdomain of basehost http://bla.4forests.net/
• Absolute URL: http://es.activists365.net/
  or
  Tag page URLs:
• Use param E-g: http://es.activists365.net/?tag=mytag
• Use extra-path: Use URL path prefix only (recommended) E-g: http://es.activists365.net/tag/mytag
• Use extra-path: trailing dash E-g: http://es.activists365.net/mytag-
• Use extra-path: trailing colon E-g: http://es.activists365.net/mytag:
• Use extra-path: trailing semi-colon (NOT recommended) E-g: http://es.activists365.net/mytag;

In our case, some of this given choices are not working and I just need to know, if it is a mistake in the setup or if make 'all' options work, needs additional tuning anyways.

Probably related to this question are tiny url. As example, http://es.activists365.net/aD1 doesn't show, what it should.

The same with help-link ... http://es.activists365.net/help whilst http://es.activists365.net works well

How can i fix this?

A big thanks already for reading it!

Hello,

The following frequent issues seem to apply to your post: (This is a semi-automated response):

• You did not provide a screenshot (as requested for support)
• You did not provide the Name / URL of your webhost (as requested for support)

Additionally:

If I say I don't understand the question and you repeat exactly the same without trying to rephrase, I still don't understand.

From what I halfway understand, my answer would be: yes all options should work unless you have a server config that prevents it (ignored .htaccess for example)

Please isolate ONE problem and give me the following info:

• What URL is not working?
• What do you get?
• What did you expect?
• Screenshots

hi @ramadama

Regarding your last post #5 I have had some tiny url's not working and will try to find the info on that but note

works: http://4forests.net/index.php/aB5
doesn't work: http://es.activists365.net/aD1 ( this is subdomain-setup)

es.activists365.net
is not a subdomain of
4forests.net

es.activists365.net
can only be a subdomain of
activists365.net

maybe you mean a parked domain or a redirect etc.

sorry, i picked the wrong example ( in screenshot it is the right one), the last line of my post should read:

doesn't work: http://testblog.4forests.net/aD0 ( this is subdomain-setup)

Another observation, which i hope is more helpful than distracting:
There is a difference in performance depending on how 'Single post URLs' is set
Use param: post ID E-g: http://testblog.4forests.net/?p=123&more=1 is showing the content while
Use extra-path: post title E-g: http://testblog.4forests.net/post-title is not working

It seems that 'connecting' ( in German it is: Webspace verbinden - Domain mit Website bzw. Ordner auf ihrem Webspace verbinden) Webspace as 1und1 is doing it, is not doing the job as b2e would require it. We don't understand what causes the broken links nor how to find out what is missing ..

I see the same problem on the screenshots of both sites. Any URL that uses extrapath info is not passed to b2evolution and lands a-on a 1&1 error page.

This is due to the fact that the 1&1 webserver is NOT executing your .htaccess file. You need to ask 1&1 why.

SOLVED!
there was only a tiny detail required: it needed uncommenting the line

# RewriteBase /

in .htaccess

Great!
