First off, I apologize if this question has been asked before, (Though I was unable to find it, if it were).
My issue is that right now I have a sub menu item pointing to a article where the visitor is then redirected to the correct shop (According to his/her language).
The issue is that I have developed a new shop and would like to point my sub menu item to the new shop, if I however do this, it will break all the internal links I have In my articles / modules which point to this sub menu point.
To fully grasp what my issue is please see below:
**Current Main Menu (Visible)**
Purchase - Points to "Buy here" (Menu Item Alias)
- Buy here -> Points to article (URL: /purchase/buy-here.html)
- Other sub menu item
What I want to do but breaks / generates route errors is:
**Altered Main Menu (Visible)**
Purchase - Points to "/shop.html" (Menu Item Alias)
- Buy here -> Points to "/shop.html" (Menu Item Alias)
- Other sub menu item
**Shop menu (Hidden)**
shop - Main shop page (URL: /shop.html)
- Shop related link
- Shop related link
When I do this all the links that I have in my article that points to the "Buy here" breaks.
I can of course go through all my articles and modules and change the link accordingly before updating the main menu, but it's easy to miss a link.
Is there any way I can update / avoid breaking my internal links?
Errors:
Notice: Undefined index: view in /components/com_content/router.php on line 67
And if Gzip'ing is enabled in Joomla I get this error aswell
Error code: ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED
UPDATE:
I'm not looking for a temporary solution or a quick fix, so .htaccess will not solve the issue as the main link will still be there.
