Possible Bug: Links to certain POLLS

This is happening on 2.2.2 and I don't see it addressed in 2.3.0 (which I haven't installed until the bugs are fixed).


When I click on the URLs to some polls, I am getting an error of
Invalid Forum specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

Here are the URLs to the polls. I first discovered this by clicking on something in the WOL list.. THen I searched for the poll and the same thing happened.

(from searching)
http://www.horsegroomingsupplies.com...+nicest+saddle

(from WOL)
http://www.horsegroomingsupplies.com...ost489279.html

And even with the proper URL I get a not found (bounced to forum home)
http://www.horsegroomingsupplies.com...t-saddle-33693

Hello vissa,

I guess this is not a "view poll" link, but showthread page URL for the thread with title that begins with "poll". That makes a consufion between poll and thread URLs.

Please note, that this will not happen with default vBSEO URLs, because showthread URL format has starting "thread_id" part. But you have a custom URL format set that makes it similar to poll url. Does it makes sense?

The solution is to modify either showthread or poll URL format. For instance, set poll urls to:
polls/[poll_id].html

I just modified it, but I don't see poll urls changing. Strange.

Also, if I try to view the results of a poll, the URL comes out like

http://www.horsegroomingsupplies.com...-poll3096.html
or alternatively
http://www.horsegroomingsupplies.com...-www-3096.html

why are the img src http and www in there?

This appears to be a real bug.
Here's the link to that poll's thread.

Hello vissa,

please post your poll and showthread URL formats (or PM me your exported url format settings from vbseocp).

Here is the current thread rewrite
[thread_title]-[thread_id].html

and the poll rewrite (changed as you suggested)
poll/[poll_title]-[poll_id].html

Ok, thanks. Do I understand correctly that the only problem now is adding "img-src..." part?

Yes that is correct.

Ok, this issue is related to the poll title with smilies added.
Thank you for reporting!
