Question Category view and sef causes 500 error when the url is a non kunena url
9 years 11 months ago #1
by alanski
No forum config needed here 
The issue: we have some old urls after a site move whci h are beyond our control - google just indexes them.
eg "forum/our-services/itemlist/category/100-newsroom"
This is some old mangled url that is from k2 link.
Kunena sees the sef url and assumes its a forum url and tries to fire $category->getLastTopic(); in views/category/view.html.php line 227
This creates a 500 error as the category is null.
This could hurt your SEO if you have urls coming in like this. We found them in Google Webmaster tools.
Our fix was to edit the function displaycategory
function displayCategory($category) {
//add
if(is_null($category))
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$url = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_kunena');
$app->redirect($url, true);
return;
//end add
Not sure if this should really be checked in the router? [// Support URIs like: /forum/12-my_category] line 82
Hopefully this helps someone else
