I tested out the Umbraco Url Alias - by entering a url of test. This worked great. However,this longer is there against the document but when i browse to /test it prompts for a user name/password as if the url is still there?
Yes, I used umbracoUrlAlias... I then unpublished the nodes. At some point I took out the alias from the node and saved it. Now I have unpublished that node but the alias is available but obviously linking to a page that is no longer visible..
Sounds like some orphaned data... which would be a bug to report on codeplex. Please do report it.
The work-around would be to add the umbracoUrlAlias back to the docType for this node. Then open the node and set the umbracoUrlAlias to an empty string. Publish the node. That will clear any orphaned data on that node. Then you can remove the umbracoUrlAlias from the docType and unpublish the node.
Node no longer exists - problem with URL alias
I tested out the Umbraco Url Alias - by entering a url of test. This worked great. However,this longer is there against the document but when i browse to /test it prompts for a user name/password as if the url is still there?
Any ideas
hmm... can you provide some sample links? not sure if i am following your issue.
Did you want to replace the page's url, or give alternate url's for the same page?
umbracoUrlName
•A textstring
•Override the page’s default url
umbracoUrlAlias
•A textstring
•Add additional urls for the page
•Example: “faq,support/help/answers”
•No spaces, no leading slash, no “.aspx”
