@w20k

I think it needs to be ../../ not ../

w20k commented

@ayumihamsaki for me it works as expected. Don't see a reason to fix it :)
Incognito is the same for me. Maybe you're having issue with cache?

@w20k

../ gives:

https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/markup/this-page

../../ gives:

https://octobercms.com/docs/markup/this-page

I tested this on several browsers.

@ayumihamsaki what's in your URL bar when you have that result before clicking the link? Tested it in Chrome, Firefox, & Safari on Mac OS and they all work fine.

@w20k @LukeTowers No problem here is a screenshot:

I don't want to sound rude, but I understand why you guys get one set of results and I get another - it's because browsers don't work exactly the same for every user. Is there a better way to test such problems because we could have 10 people saying they get your results and another 10 people saying their getting mine.

  • Running Chrome Version 75.0.1000.0 on a PC with Windows 10
  • Running Chrome Version 78.0.3879.0 on a PC with Windows 10
  • Running Chrome Version 78.0.3879.0 on a PC with Windows 7
  • Running Chrome Version 78.0.3879.0 on a MAC

All of these will give different results, I know that from speaking to the Chrome team.

@ayumihamsaki Your URL is cms/pages/, however when I browse to https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/pages/ I get automatically redirected to https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/pages. The issue is that you are not being redirected, or your browser is choosing to ignore that redirect. The official canonical URL for that page is https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/pages, which means that the URL as built right now is correct.

@LukeTowers This is going to sound crazy but browsers and search engine bots ignore canonical URL's. I had a look chat about this with a Googler a few months ago. He told me they usually ignore them - which I was gutted when he said that.

Here's the test results for that link with any redirects:

test

Definetly not redirecting properly.

that URL is incorrect, but testing https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/pages/ for a redirect to https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/pages didn't trigger a redirect so this is an issue for the marketplace site to handle.

I think the tester might be broken

Below pulled straight from Chrome:

Request URL: https://octobercms.com/docs/cms/pages/
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 301 Moved Permanently

@ayumi-cloud what's the latest on this?
