Whilst in development on a temporary subdomain I had robots set to No Index, No Follow in the Joomla 3.6.4 Global Configuration.
After moving the site to its permanent home I changed the settings to Index, Follow but, all the pages are fine, except the home page, which is still showing (when source is viewed) meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow"
I have changed the menu item to 'Index, Follow' rather than 'use global' and, when that made no difference, also did the same for the single article which is assigned to that page. Still no change. It doesn't change on the original development site version, either.
This is a template that I have used many times before: I keep a basic copy with some global tweaks that I have made and then adapt it for each new site. I can change the robots meta tags on this original template with no problem.
I have no SEF plugins. The only SEF tool is the System - SEF.
I have checked all the template files over and over and I am now about to tear my hair out.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
(p.s. can someone with a better reputation than me please add a Joomla3.6.4 forum tag?)

I have a problem whose solution is certainly very simple, but it does not come to my mind at the moment :/
I have a multi-domain TYPO3 (6.1) installation and in one of the websites I need to temporarily show only one subpage, and over the rest of the pages I will work/update so I can not delete them. It is important that someone after entering a URL or going to the page from the Google search results has not opened this page, and has been redirected to this temporary.
I've tried the mount points but something does not work ...
Please help.
You can exchange the domain-records.
Make a new page on it's own (independent from the configuration of the domain it should replace). so it is a root-page. give it a domain record and disable the domain record of the pagetree it should replace.
Be aware to change the rootpageid configuration in realurl.
You also may need a special configuration for 404 handling for this domain as the most requests will be a 404 (or better 503).
And hurry up to update your system. TYPO3 6.1 is out of service for a long time.
I am trying to switch to a second language using polylang plugin in my Wordpress test site.
I don't have relevant code to show, I haven't identified problem code associated with this error.
What I expect is to find myself on the Home page equivalent in the second language no matter which English page I was on previously.
Instead I am taken to the Spanish version of the About page, not Home page equivalent. Also, the page content is made up of not just that page's content but all of the content from every page on the site is stacked on top of each other - including old versions of pages.
If I subsequently click on the Spanish menu which displays as expected, the next page displays perfectly. When I click back to the About page (the page previous acting as a site catch-all) everything is as it should be. So the problem only manifests on the initial switch to a second language.
Switching back to English does not cause the problem to reoccur, everything is fine in this case. It is only when initially switching from English (site primary language) to Spanish that the problem occurs.
I am using the 'X' Wordpress theme for this 'local' version of my site. My Wordpress & free polylang versions are up to date.
Any help with this problem would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Brent.
I have come up with a solution for my problem.
This isn't the most elegant solution but I need something that works now so here goes.
I noticed that when switching to Spanish I was taken to the page: http://localhost/www.ecia.com/es/ i.e. no specific page, fine if I had an index.php file in that location but I don't. The result is I am taken to the page with the bloated content.
My work around was, use a redirection for that URL to the page I want the switcher to go to i.e. instead of http://localhost/www.ecia.com/es - I redirect to http://localhost/www.ecia.com/es/casa
This is not the best fix, but I have found it difficult going any deeper into how Polylang plugin works so it will suffice for my purposes.

I have solved this by:
Go to language/setting/url settigs
Uncheck "Hide URL language information for default language "
How do you do relative links within text editor component? Adobe AEM doesn't like when I use relative links to external pages by default. It strips them out and shows the broken link symbol.
I strongly recommend you to uncheck Disable Checking in Day CQ Link Checker Transformer.
Be aware that It's your responsibility to ensure all links are valid:
Completly disable all link checking. All links are handled as valid.
This is something you want to check with your team (Devs, TAs...). It may work on your local environment and it will fail in QA, UAT and PROD as this option is not checked.
Disabling the link checker might not be a good idea as Content Authors may add broken links, which It'll break user navigation throughout the site if this is not picked during testing and regression testing.
Regarding paths, relative paths are those within the environment you're in. For instance,
/content/dam/geometrixx/banners/banner-mono.png
is a relative path, however path to Stack Overflow is outside you environment therefore is external. In order to be valid, you need to provide the full URL including the scheme, either http, https, ftp, ftps and so on. A valid external URL would be:
http://www.stackoverflow.com
More info about URLs can be found here.
While disabling the link checker will work, I'm not sure how you are referencing external websites by relative link. Relative links are on the same domain by their nature. Can you give us an example of what you mean?
The other problem with disabling the link checker is that the production deployment will likely have the link checker turned on. In this case your code will break again. You probably don't want your client/boss/whatever upset about that.
Relative links can be made to work just fine with the linkchecker. Can you post some example links? I can help you make things work properly.
This issue is quite common, if you have URL's (paths) in your domain that are NOT served by AEM. This can be files directly served by the Apache (e.g. robots.txt), Servlets creating dynamic redirects (e.g. language switcher) or another application (e.g. web shop under /shop).
First solution is to mark an individual link for the link checker as valid. Therefore you can add the following attribute to the link tag.
x-cq-linkchecker="valid" - link is marked as valid, without any
check
x-cq-linkchecker="skip"- link is ignored by the link
checker, and remains as is
e.g. Shopping Basket
Second solution is to configure special-threated link patterns in the OSGi config of the “Day CQ Link Checker Service”. In case you have a second application in the same domain, then you can specify regex-patterns matching the links to this second application. User either “Link Check Override Patterns” (not checked, but rewritten) or “Special Link Patterns” (not checked and not rewritten).
Example configuration that only links to /content/* are verified. Links that not matching ^/content/.*$ are threated as valid:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0" xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0"
jcr:primaryType="sling:OsgiConfig"
service.special_link_prefix="[javascript:,data:,mailto:,#,<!--,${,tel:]"
service.check_override_patterns="[^system/,^(?!/content/).*$]"
/>
Fixed my issue in /system/console/configMgr# > Day CQ Link Checker Transformer > Check "Disable Checking" box.
Relative paths now work.
Is there any existing way to generate a what-links-here report for a gollum wiki? In other words, a list of the pages within the same wiki that link to the current page: a list of the local inbound links.
I wasn't able to spot any feature like this, nor find anything suitable in the API, but I may have missed it. Is there a third party add-on for it?
I do understand the reason it probably doesn't exist in the core: as these are plain text files, there isn't any table of links maintained anywhere. For the same reason, when a page is renamed it breaks all the inbound links to that page from other pages.
A function for this could use the API to read the generated source of each page (so that only html with normalized names needs to be parsed), producing a list of the local links from each page and the page they are on. Cache the results at page level until the next commit of that page.
This could be used to enhance the existing page rename feature as well. Has anybody already done this?
I'm pretty new to TYPO3 and currently stuck with the following issue:
I copied the templates from another webpage that is currently in business.
When I'm on the startpage of my homepage (www.domain.com) and click on one of the links it contains I always get an error 404. The link that is generated looks like this.
http://www.domain.com/testpage.440.0.html
So I guess something like RealUrl was in use on the webpage that I copied from? Do I understand this right? I don't see that RealUrl is installed though.
However If i manually change this link to
http://www.domain.com/?id=440.0.html
the site is being created.
How does Typo3 know to generate a page when it receives the first version of these two links?
Does not really look like a standard out-of-the-box REAL URL url. That would rather have been /testpage-404.html . So maybe the problem is somewhere else, could be:
simulate static (check if that extension is running). A common mistake is to run real url an simulate static at the same time. If you do not need speaking urls for the moment, just uninstall simulate static.
make sure you add a domain to your shortcut. Use the the list modul and select the root shortcut. Then click create new record, select domain. and enter your domain there. Flush all the caches and try again.
If you'd post your TS Code (of the root shortcut page) here, I could probably tell what's going wrong.
real url configuration typically use .htaccess files.. maybe that file still contains information from the original destination.
check if the root ts contains some baseUrl statement
Which version of TYPO3 are you using?
HTH, but feel free to post more infos.
If your typoscript template is expecting to find realurl and its not installed as a plugin, that could be the cause. You'll need to either install it, or find the settings in the TS template and remove them.
Try the template object browser to look for it (use the template tool, click to the site root, then use the drop down menu in the r/h pane to choose the Template Obect Browser.)
How does Typo3 know to generate a page when
it receives the first version of these two links?
Any page request that it doesn't understand will give a 404 error.
