Wie schade! Vielleicht gibt es eine Art Plugin, mit dem Sie einen alternativen Namen im Menü eingeben und die URL in lateinischen Zeichen schreiben können?
Per urichar/org new, siehe Wiki und Beispiel dazu hier.
Oder ein Addon (Siehe auch viewtopic.php?t=5719&start=90#p41996).

English:
I write sites on CMSimple_XH in Russian. Several times I came across the fact that the system does not allow saving a page in the page manager and reporting too long URLs.
This error message is caused by the configuration setting "uri length". You can increase the value to 400, for example.

However, 200 is already quite long, so for a page at level 4, you are supposed to have roughly 50 characters (not bytes) for each page heading. There might be a bug, though – I'll check that later.

Thanks!
It works! But I will continue to study other solutions. I noticed a strange variable name.

Code: Select all

$cf['uri']['sepErator']="/"; - is it right?
$cf['uri']['word_separator']="-";

No, this is wrong. It should be 'seperator' (neither 'sepErator', nor the correctly spelled 'separator'). I don't know how that happened, but I suggest to change it, and to check whether the site still works.

Indeed, there is a bug. $su is taken from the QUERY_STRING, and this is not urldecoded (at least not on IIS where I'm checking, but I think it is not urldecoded on other servers as well). So if someone is requesting http://example.com/?Content/Inhalt-%5Bde%5D, $su is "Content/Inhalt-%5Bde%5D", so the $cf['uri']['length'] cut would shorten the URL more than desired, and could even split in the middle of a urlencoded character, resulting in an invalid URL. A quick-fix might be to replace this line with:

Code: Select all

$su = utf8_substr($su, 0, $cf['uri']['length'] + 2 * substr_count($su, '%'));
And to adjust this line accordingly. Not sure if that's correct for all (edge-)cases. And it doesn't look clean, anyway.

Sorry, it was written "seperator", I highlighted the letter "E" to make it clear what surprised me. The mistake is not in this place, at least functional, not spelling. :oops:

And there is. After adjusting the specified lines on a clean CMSimple_XH 1.72, everything works, after installing new files "cms.php" and "functions.php" on the site, I learned a message:
Twocents_XH detected an unsupported CMSimple_XH version.
Uninstall Twocents_XH or upgrade to a supported CMSimple_XH version!

:? anscheinend hast du eine Masterversion von XH 1.7.2 installiert und nicht das Release.
Schau mal im Backend unter Einstellungen > Info was da angezeigt wird, sollte sein:
CMSimple_XH 1.7.2 Released: 2017-12-21
Bei der Masterversion wird folgendes angezeigt:
"@CMSIMPLE_XH_VERSION@ Released: @CMSIMPLE_XH_DATE@"

Yes, like lck said. Or in other words: if you download from github/cmsimple-xh or github/cmb69, don't use "Source code (zip)" or "Source code (tar.gz)", but rather a .zip which contains "XH" in the filename.

Hello friends! Unfortunately, the same problem remains, or I'm doing something wrong. In the cms.php file, line 805 is as follows:

Code: Select all

$su = utf8_substr($su, 0, $cf['uri']['length'] + 2 * substr_count($su, '%'));
In functions.php, line 823 is like this:

Code: Select all

$u[] = utf8_substr($url, 0, $cf['uri']['length']) + 2 * substr_count($u, '%'));
The result you see is the Cyrillic url is too long.

Please help me figure it out.

Hallo Freunde! Leider bleibt das gleiche Problem, oder ich mache etwas falsch. In der cms.php-Datei lautet die Zeile 805 wie folgt:

Code: Select all

$su = utf8_substr($su, 0, $cf['uri']['length'] + 2 * substr_count($su, '%'));
In functions.php sieht Zeile 823 folgendermaßen aus:

Code: Select all

$u[] = utf8_substr($url, 0, $cf['uri']['length']) + 2 * substr_count($u, '%'));
Das Ergebnis ist, dass die kyrillische URL zu lang ist.

Bitte helfen Sie mir, es herauszufinden.

Ich habe das mal mit folgendem Seitennamen und einer Unterseite lokal mit Xampp mit frisch installiertem XH 1.7.2 getestet

Code: Select all

Не хлебом единым сыт человек - Не хлебом единым сыт человек
Unterseite

Code: Select all

а б в г д е ё ж з и й к л м н о п р с т у ф х ц ч ш щ ъ ы ь э ю я
Einstellung in der config.php

Code: Select all

$cf['uri']['seperator']="/";
$cf['uri']['word_separator']="-";
$cf['uri']['length']="600";
Speichert ohne Probleme und die URI ist auch aufrufbar.

Magst du mal die problematischen Seitennamen hier als Text posten, damit wir das mal testen können.
