This extenstion seems to be completely incompatible with the new version of Contao:
- in the backend, it automatically adds an "http://" in front of the alias when saving a page
- in the frontend, it's impossible to access a page whith an alias containing a "/"
Please correct this quickly!
I'm not sure about the "http://" issue, I didn't see that when I was testing. But I was using RC1 at the time, so maybe its new. I do know that folderurl is definitely not compatible with the new "auto_item" feature added.
Make sure in your settings (frontend configuration) that "Use the auto_item parameter" is unchecked and see if it helps at all. This actually might be a big deal. What Contao is doing with the "auto_item" is counting the number of parameters after the URL (to us, the stuff between the "/"s).
So if it sees "myurl.com/something/" it sees one pararameter and assumes it's a page. But if it sees "myurl.com/something/something-else/" it sees 2 parameters, and treats the first as a page and the second as an item alias and tries to stick "items/" or "events/" in between them.
So this will obviously break the folderurl extension any time you try to nest folders in your alias. And not being much of a developer I don't know if there's an easy fix for it, or if we just won't be able to use the two together.
P.S. It's worth noting that folderurl is actually only officially compatible with up to 2.9.5, as listed in the repository. So I wouldn't classify this as a bug either.
Hello,
I guess that Andreas (the extensions author) will have to do many changes to forderurl with Contao 2.11. If you need this quickly you might consider paying him the development time so he will be able to do this with high priority.Quote:

Indeed, the problems disappears when disabling the "auto_item" parameter! So thank you "Medianomaly"!
Anyway, I've noticed another thing: I wanted to have URL ending with "/index" when the page corresponds to the root of a chapter, but the result is that the word "index" is automatically removed in frontend, which produced a "page not found" error. Note that this thing worked with with Contao 2.10.
Hi.
I've checked some code and found that idnaEncodeUrl() in System class has changed to prepend "http://".
So, prepending "http://" problem could be solved with this change:
I tested with Contao 2.11.0. 'https://' pattern shouldn't need and it wouldn't fix "auto_item" related problem.Code:--- folderurl/FolderURL.php.orig 2011-02-17 23:19:34.000000000 +0900

Best regards.
Just add this to your system/config/dcaconfig.php file and the problem disappears...
Code:$GLOBALS['TL_DCA']['tl_page']['fields']['alias']['eval']['rgxp'] = '';
Or you use the alternative, RealURL. The unofficial replacement:

Hey,
I saw RealURL (and another -- TrueURL I believe) in the repsitory and meant to give them a spin.
Do you know if either are compatible with auto_item? Not even sure it''s possible, but just wanted to ask.
Hi,
RealURL is compatible with auto_item and auto_language. TrueURL is a fork from RealURL and also compatible with both functions.
