    Cannot change home url

    Hello,

    I'm trying to mirror the site structure setup as shown in the Umbraco hybrid framework project

    https://github.com/jbreuer/Hybrid-Framework-for-Umbraco-v7-Best-Practises

    I realise this is outdated now, but I only want to mimic the structure, namely having a Root "Website" node and beneath it my 'visible' nodes, such as home, contact etc.

    The steps I have followed have been;

    • Created a bootstrapper class which implements IApplicationEventHandler

    • Within the OnApplicationStarting method I've included a HomeUrlProvider, like so : UrlProviderResolver.Current.InsertTypeBefore<DefaultUrlProvider, HomeUrlProvider>();

    • The home urlprovider which gets called looks pretty much exactly as it does within the hybrid framework project. My get url method is as follows;

      public string GetUrl(UmbracoContext umbracoContext, int id, Uri current, UrlProviderMode mode)
      {
          var content = umbracoContext.ContentCache.GetById(id);
          if (content != null && content.DocumentTypeAlias.ToLower() == "home" && content.Parent != null)
          {
              //The home node will have / instead of /home/.
              return content.Parent.Url;
          }
          return null;
      }
      

    I have set a property on the 'website node' to redirect any navigation from the website node to the home node. This property is set on the node as UmbracoInternalRedirectId and using a picker, the home node is selected.

    On debugging, when in the umbraco back office, if I select the home node the GetUrl method is called and returns '/' as expected.

    When I look at the back office, to check the url for the home node under properties, it shows this message;

     This document is published but its url would collide with content /Website (id=1083)
    

    I am quite confused, because as far as I can tell I've mirrored the hybrid framework method - which when I debug behaves much the same as my solution. I'm totally lost - any help? Thanks.
