Thanks John

Hi John,

Can I just ask if the following is correct.

In the above example for green products do I have to make two redirects?

/items/green/ to: /items/green-products/
and then add
/items/green/page/(.*) to: /items/green-products/page/$1

Or will the second redirect listed above redirect the first and all subsequent pages?

I ask because to my mind /items/green/ and /items/green/page/ are different urls but maybe your redirection code treats them as the same?

Thanks

Well don’t I feel dumb now ?? I had not enabled the regex button, and now I have it works just fine.

Thanks John ??

Hi Gerry,

Thanks for the quick reply. That last link was where I got my expression attempt from.

From reading other posts in the redirection thread I got the impression the plugin developer didn’t like to get involved with actual expressions and I fully understand why, that’s why I thought I would try here first.

I’ll post it there now though. Thanks

Thanks Mark, that looks pretty useful.

OK, thanks for the reply, I was just wondering if your plugin was in some way preventing me from making county a requirement. I’m happy to hear this isn’t the case.

This is now closed.

Thanks

I’m getting the same problem as well.

I have sub-catagories which are very important to my site navigation and now they no longer display in the breadcrumb navigation and like the OP says, random catagories seem to be selected as the main catagory ignoring what is selected as the primary catagory.

Hi Hannah,

Yeah, I’ll keep watching that thread, I’m just surprised there aren’t a lot more people reporting the same problem as what we are doing can’t be that unusual. I have seen people reporting pricing not working any more and that is an effect of the faulty code.

The fix in the thread you posted was just to fix the code in the import and export folders. I’m guessing the same approach needs to be applied to many other files throughout all folders as well but this is outside of my ability.

Thanks

Hi Hannah,

I’ve edited the files and uploaded them, refreshed everything and no change.

Looking at the files you pointed me to, I’m not sure this is the same problem as the one I am having. This has nothing to do with import/export, this is just when editing and saving attributes.

Thanks

Hi Hannah,

Thanks for the advice. I’ll edit the files tomorrow and will let you know if it fixes my particular problem.

Thanks

Hi Hannah,

I have updated to version 3.5.2 but the issue persists.

Was the fix implemented or has it been pushed back to a future release?

Thanks

Mark

That’s great, thanks Hannah

Hi Hannah,

Thanks for the reply.

This has been tested with and without plugins enabled etc. In fact SiteGround support have tested it as well and tried it on a site of their own and got the same results.

Here is their response as they will be able to explain better than I ever could:

“I went ahead and enabled all the plugins on the test site and changed its theme to the one on the live site, then I disabled all the plugins except Woocommerce

The issue still persists after that – https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dZpO-nhF1Ss7111jCFVqQh49h5Rj0n3N/view?usp=drivesdk

I looked further into this and what I was able to find is that if I comment or change the DB charset entry the Attributes are not even shown:

/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);

I checked the database and it is set in utf8:

Code:
mysql> show variables like “character_set_database”;
+————————+——-+
| Variable_name | Value |
+————————+——-+
| character_set_database | utf8 |
+————————+——-+

Changing the collation to utf8 or utf8mb4 or commenting it has no effect or the whole attributes are disappearing/hidden from the interface.

Please check with them what might be causing this issue.

For your convenience, I am leaving this ticket in ARC (Awaiting Response from Customer) status for you to update.

Looking forward to your reply.

Best Regards,”

===================================================================================

So I hope that helps explain the problem.

I also took a video of what was happening if you would like to see it:

I look forward to your comments.

Kind regards

Tad

Can I bump this or how do I get help on these forums?

So I’m new here and not sure how these forums work.

I have paid for WooCommerce so am I on the wrong forum?

If there is a different forum could someone please give a link and/or let me know how to make a support ticket.

Thanks
