Canonical url redirect

This extensions creates redirects so that Flarum can only be accessed via the url defined in config.php.

tolgaaaltas Should still be applicable if you encounter users who are attempting to access your site through the wrong url, like non-secure HTTP or with the www subdomain.

Extension updated for beta 13.

I have fixed the URL not preserving the correct path when redirecting an admin page ("admin" would get removed from the URL).

It's not new, but after some investigation I confirmed the extension doesn't work with subfolder installs. The technical reason is that middlewares/base-path prevents me from getting access to the full path, and I don't want to add additional logic to reconstruct the full URL. I have added a warning in the README.

Hi, thanks for mentioning , i have tired to modify root .htacess no luck. do you recommend any other way to resolve this ?

clarkwinkelmann

Hari are you using a subfolder install ? If so this extension won't help you. Best to open a new support thread with details on your issue.

Just released version 0.2.1, which fixes a rare bug that prevents access to the admin panel when the forum has an issue loading translations or if a language pack provides invalid translations.

composer require migratetoflarum/canonical

Released version 0.2.2 with beta 14 support.

clarkwinkelmann

Release 0.2.3

Previous versions are already compatible with Flarum beta 15, this update just adds the category and links for the new Flarum admin panel. The settings are also moved from the modal to the new extension page.

Braden are you reporting an issue?

The <link rel="canonical"> tag on the webpage isn't actually managed by this extension. It's added automatically be Flarum core on some pages, and extensions can provide it for additional pages.

This extension only manages the HTTP redirects to the forum URL defined in config.php.

Released version 0.2.4 to remove code that has been deprecated in Flarum beta 16.

Both the old versions and the latest 0.2.4 can be used with Flarum beta 16.

clarkwinkelmann

Released version 1.0.0 with Flarum 1.0 compatibility.

hello clark, whats mean this one or how to change html tag ?

clarkwinkelmann

Xkyer I think that's a bug in Flarum. Flarum generates the canonical meta tag on the page but doesn't add the ending slash for the homepage. This probably doesn't trigger any warning in search engines when Flarum is installed in the root folder because the ending slash is automatically assumed present by any URL parser. But for subfolder installations Flarum is supposed to add the ending slash in the meta tag since it's required for subfolder installations (only the Flarum homepage needs the ending slash, not the other pages added by Flarum or extensions) but it's apparently not doing it. I see the same problem on one of my test websites right now.
