Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
ihirmiz Posted October 6, 2017 Posted October 6, 2017 I am having problem with creating clubs. - I have enabled clubs and - Enabled creating clubs for almost all groups ( except gusts ) with different access and capacity. Still I cannot see create club tab in the club section?! my website is www.languageprofessionals com.au. can you advice please? Many thanks.
AndyF Posted October 6, 2017 Posted October 6, 2017 If you're using a custom language pack or theme, please temporarily switch to the default to re-check to see if the link appears to create them. Normally this is caused by not setting in the group settings. However you say you've done this. What happens if you manually try to force create a club via the URL ? The direct link to do this is: /clubs/?do=create Append your URL onto the start of that. If you get a 'bad link' type error, are you still using /index.php in the URL's ? If so try this type of link instead, same as above append your URL onto the start of it: /index.php?/clubs/?do=create That should at least either show the form to create one or show an error with a code number.
ihirmiz Posted October 6, 2017 Author Posted October 6, 2017 Hi Andy Thanks for your reply and help: I tried both of your suggestions but did not work as I had Template: set to Default Language: set to English USA However: I found the solution to this problem. I deleted an extra plugin that I had installed. to my surprise, as soon as I removed 'Desktop Fluid View Modal Filter ' plugin, the 'Create Club' link appeared. It was this plugin casing the problem. Since you mentioned this in your reply, could you please show me how to simplify the UR by removing the extra 'index.php?' bit from the UR address. having www.mywebsite.com/club instead of www.mywebstie.com/indecx.php?/club Many Thanks.,., Regards
AndyF Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 You're welcome. To remove the /index.php/ part simply go to ACP > System > Site Promotion > Search Engine Optimisation > On the 'friendly URL's' tab, you need to enable "Rewrite URL's" , note the download link for the .htaccess file you *must* download this *and* upload it to your suite root (the same folder that conf_global and init are in) for it to work. Once this is in place the URL's will lose the 'index.php' part.
