URL Redirection Not Working Properly

iRobin

Hi, I have successfully updated to beta 9 recently. Since then i am facing one problem which i am not sure whether it caused by removal of few extensions.

Problem is, (in Desktop) when i navigate to a specific topic and come back to home page by clicking on the logo or arrow from the side bar, the URL doesn't change. It just keeps on showing the same topic url i was visiting.
When this happens, i am unable to click and view the list menu. the one appears when we click on the Profile Name and Display Picture at the top right corner.

I tried to disable Cloudflare and checked, no changes. i have checked .htaccess file and everything looks normal. Tried clearing the cache through SSH and inside Admin panel. But no help.

Please let me know how i can fix it.

iRobin you might be able to see a javascript error in the browser console. You can usually access the console somewhere in the development tools of your browser.

It could be caused by an extension that isn't compatible (or not fully) with beta 9.

clarkwinkelmann I think i found the reason. Got this in Console fo the Firefox. Sadly its the Google Ads extension or the ads itself causing the problem i believe 🙁 Any suggestion to fix this without letting the ads go?

clarkwinkelmann

iRobin do you run the latest version of the Ads extension ? There have been a few updates recently. Can you share the output of your php flarum info ?

If you are indeed on the latest version you can open an issue on the GitHub repo so we can try to resolve the issue.

The immediate solution would be to disable the ads extension though 🤷‍♂️

iRobin

clarkwinkelmann Yes. i have disabled it clark.

clarkwinkelmann Looks like the problem is already reported https://discuss.flarum.org/d/4785-flagrow-ads-bombarding-your-users-with-ads-everywhere-if-you-want/192

May be you may delete this post i will continue my discussion there. dont want to have a duplicate post here as others also dealing with same problem.

iRobin oh right I missed this report.

I don't have the time to investigate that right now so I'll let other FoF members comment here if they need more details to reproduce.

Let's keep the discussions separated for now. If necessary I'll move @YusufYldrm posts here so we don't overload the the Ads discussion.

iRobin I'll take a look after work today. Can you provide your Flarum url so I can take a look on your website?

iRobin I just pushed 0.2.3 which should hopefully fix the issues. I haven't been able to get an adsense account so I can't fully test but I'm fairly confident.

YusufYldrm

clarkwinkelmann At least I'm not the only one with this problem. Should we continue the discussion from here?

YusufYldrm

Kyrne Hey, nice job. Now it works as far as I can observe. Thank you. As promised, I will donate 3 months of adsense revenue to FOF developers

iRobin

Kyrne I confirm the problem is now fixed 🙂 Thank you so much and i definitely won't stop with just a Thank you. Will send my support right away.

Thank you guys! We never ask for donations and my update was not contingent on a donation. If you do feel so inclined our open collective is here: https://opencollective.com/fof

iRobin I'm sorry it was a mess. In the flagrow / ads discussion, I had the idea that you owned the site.

iRobin

Kyrne I feel its a responsibility to support the developers. Thank you so much for your time and quick support.

Kyrne When you enable Adsense ads, the site works properly and everything is as it should be. However, it gives an error in the browser console. You said you didn't have an account to test ads for CDK2020 adsense. You can run tests on my site if you want. In private, I can provide you with site login information. Should I care about this mistake?

Kyrne then we're back to the beginning: D "This" message is still valid
