Feature request : Short URL redirection

[SKAN]

For example, following url's should redirect to this topic/post.

ahkscript.org/t93512
ahkscript.org/p414331

Can something like this be done?.
I want to stop using external providers.

[joedf]

Simple enough! I only implemented "p" which takes the "t=#####" numbers.

Thank you very much @joedf

t= isn't possible? In case you want to support direct post link in future?
For example, user @teadrinker (almost) always post scripts as solutions in ask-for-help.
A direct link to a post is too long like:
https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?p=414331#p414331
Just suggesting.

Thanks again.

[joedf]

Oops, my bad! For some reason I though was t for direct posts... I have implement all three , so this:
http://ahkscript.org/?f=3&t=93512&p=414348
is equivalent to this:
https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=93512&p=414348#p414348

so it should be sufficient to just do this for specific posts:
http://ahkscript.org/?p=414348

For reference, php code:

Spoiler

Code: Select all

// joedf: added forum short urls - [f]orum, [t]opic, [p]ost
// see https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=93512
$keys = "ftp"; $nParams = array();
for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($keys); $i++){
	//get key value
	$c = $keys[$i]; $n = isset($_GET[$c]) ? filter_var($_GET[$c], FILTER_SANITIZE_NUMBER_INT) : 0;
	// if used/defined
	if ($n > 0) {
		$nParams[$c] = $n; // add it to the url
	}
}
if (count($nParams) > 0) {
	$sRedirect = 'Location: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?' . http_build_query($nParams);
	// check if we have direct post link, add the #ref if so...
	if (isset($nParams["p"])) {
		$sRedirect .= "#p" . $nParams["p"]; 
	}
	header($sRedirect);
	die();
}

I first get a browser warning (because not https) and then it loads forever without resolving to the forum URL.

Thanks for reporting. It was working perfectly when @joedf implemented it.
 
@tank might have changed something recently.
@tank : Please look into this.

Server worked was being done yesterday. I don't know what specifically, but mainly the ahkscript.org domain is not working as before.

[SKAN]

the ahkscript.org domain is not working as before.

Oh!

[joedf]

As far as I can tell we still own the domain, but I dont have access to it so I am not sure...
Anyway, I suspect this is only temporary. In the mean time, i've added this feature on the autohotkey.com domain
https://autohotkey.com/r?p=414348

That statement is confusing. Can? or Can't?.

[SKAN]

Broken again.

[joedf]

it seems that the default index.php, index.html, index.htm has been changed...
Additionally, it seems that @mentions are gone too...

Can this be fixed @joedf?
PS: I wrapped your nick with [mention] manually.

[joedf]

@SKAN Should be fixed now!

Thanks @joedf
