I'm Ulli, the developer of 1stMover extensions. Most 1stMover extensions are free of charges or fees and this is the forum site where you can get free support for these extensions. The word "free" is important and it means too, that I'm doing these free things in my free time and sometime I'm not able to answer all the questions posted here. I would like to ask for your patience.

If you want to help me (writing manuals, answering the posts here) then this will be very appreciated.

Before posting new post, please read the documentation and the previous forum posts as answering the same questions takes a lot of time which is missing for developing and for answering not yet answered posts.

Thank you very much for your understanding, Ulli

TOPIC: Twitter URL incorrect

Twitter URL incorrect 1 Year, 9 Months ago Karma: 0
Hello,

Great component and plugin. No problem installing it and figuring out how to enable it. I have one problem with the URLs once they are posted to my Twitter status.

Somewhere along the way AutoTweet adds an extra section to the URL so that it does not send the person to the correct page. For example:

The correct URL (not the shortened version) is:

somethinghere.com/index.php?whatever....

However, when clicking on the Twitter shortened URL, it takes you to:

somethinghere.com/images/index.php?whatever...

As you can see, somewhere the /images/ folder was added in. On other ones it will add in /attachments/.

So when someone clicks from Twitter on the shortened URL, they get to the page but it has no CSS because of this extra folder in the URL. Can you help me with this? I can't figure out why it is doing this and can find no settings that would be causing this. I hope I have explained this ok.

Here are the two Twitter URLs - you can see the extra folder in the URLs

is.gd/e8GBq

is.gd/e8F5Y

Thanks.

Hi!

1. Please post your Joomla version, AutoTweet component & plugin version, PHP version.

2. Do you use an SEF component?

3. Do you have installed Joomla in the root?

4. Please go to the component parameters and make a test with the option "Overwrite base url". Enable the option and enter your base url "indigenouspeoplesissues.com".


greetings
Ulli

Ok, so there is something special with your Joomla installation. I have implemented the 'base URL overwrite' for exactly this situation.
