That's here: http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-ind ... e=Cookbook

I think that SEO URLs don't work after the server move.

I noticed that on the wiki there are still some pages that refer to old forum urls (http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2/)
Would it be possible to mass replace those with http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/?

I thought about that too, but what I think would be better is create a directory phpBB2 on the server, and make a redirection script for viewforum/viewtopic.php and pass the IDs to the actual view scripts. Because the problem is not just the wiki, it's the forums, and external sites that Google finds.

Also, by the time I created a wiki page I realized that it wasn't in the category I wanted, and the time that it would take me to move it to the correct category is way too long (Tiki's category selection method sucks!), so I created a new page, therefore I would like that some of the moderators delete this page: http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-ind ... r+with+OIS

Good point. This will also solve the problem of forum links, links from external sites and some google results. As there are quite a few links that still point to the phpBB2 folder.

There's also an issue with some urls pointing to an ip address (89.151.96.106). I assume that is the IP of the old server, as it gives a "server move in progress" message. If that is indeed the IP of the old server than it would be a little more difficult to solve that one ;).
I wonder why people link to an IP address in the first place.

Here you are: http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/A+Series+Of+Tubes

With all those not-working wiki links: remove the "&structure..." part (maybe also a suggestion of something to fix)

OK, since the fancy links are disabled, URLs like this:

Code: Select all

http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/A+Series+Of+Tubes&structure=Cookbook#Tubes.cpp
will not work. To fix that, copy the part after /tikiwiki/ (for this example it's: "A+Series+Of+Tubes&structure=Cookbook#Tubes.cpp")

Then add it to this:

Code: Select all

http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=
So for this example, you'd get:

Code: Select all

http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=A+Series+Of+Tubes&structure=Cookbook#Tubes.cpp
And it will work.
----------------------------------------
Anyway... Jacmoe, why not just simply enable the fancy links again ? Or do the hackish approach and just make the .htaccess redirect people to the proper URLs.

Because we are no longer powered by Apache, and nginx will not forward the URLs like that because it considers + in the URL as illegal characters (which is correct, far as I understand).

I see, I appreciate the explanation. So there's no way to do any forwarding on the current server ?

If there is, we haven't found it. As I said, the nginx equivalent to mod-rewrite can't deal with these URLs due to tikiwiki using + as a word separator, which is illegal and confuses nginx.

The only other solution I see is a hack of the following form:
- Rename the tikiwiki folder.
- Place a PHP script by the name of tikiwiki (no ending) and tell nginx to treat it as a PHP script, if possible.
- The script might then be able to interpret the rest of the URL and forward it to the tiki installation.

No idea if this could even work, but that's the only thing I see. Everything else has been tried, I think.

Bad link here ( bottom of post ) http://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic. ... 99#p442823 We should have a little button next to each link to report it as invalid. I think that would help...

Fixed (not a wiki issue, but a bad link in the thread).

Not sure where you found it, but this works:

Don't know how to fix it, though.

As have been said before, remove &structure=Tools.
This is a bug related to Tiki and Nginx.

Just remove the &blah=blah part of the URL.

Would be a good idea if Nginx could ignore it automatically.
Any experts?

Almost all the links under "Shader" is bad in this wiki: http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-ind ... es#Shaders

humus Dx and GL source code shaders
Delphi shaders demo, but shaders are language independent
shaders competition source
