Hi

For a temporary bug fix I have a requirement to convert the url's you
get in edit mode format such as
http://www.mysite.com/NR/exeres/944...tionUnpublished

into the normal format. I would have thought this link would be in the
format /NR/exeres/GUID so I could extract the GUID and get the posting
from there by using Searches.GetByGuid but his does not seem to work.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Scott

Hi Scott,

this will work if the posting with the GUID exists in published mode.
Also ensure that add "{" "}" chars around the extracted GUID.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi

Thanks for your reply, the page is published and I did remember the
brackets, it seems to be an entirely different GUID that appears in the
link I gave compared to what you get if you retrieve it directly from
some debug code in that page.

Hi Scott,

for new pages this will be the GUID of the channel.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Scott,

another reason might be that there is more than one item with the same name
in this channel.
Then you cannot get a friendly URL and you will have two items with
different GUIDs and the same name.

Cheers,
Stefan
