Hi Guido,

Can you display your php info screen. There's a link to it at the bottom of: Admin > General or you can link direct like this: admin.php?menu=admin&action=phpinfo

Let me know which version of PHP you are using and what the values are for "register_globals" (search for it). I think your server may have an old deprecated PHP feature still enabled.

If it's set to "On" try adding this line (in red) to your cmsAdmin/.htaccess to disable it:

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
php_flag register_globals Off
php_value upload_max_filesize 100M
php_value post_max_size 100M
</IfModule>


Hope that helps! Let me know if that fixes it. If not we'll keep looking.

Hi Dave

We use a pretty actual PHP Version 5.2.6 and register_globals is off

Strange... anyhow I just renamed the fieldnames to more precise ones like "homepage_title" instead of "title" to avoid conflicts with other field names. Cause "title" is pretty in every section :-)

I guess it only happens with single records, so if you have for example a single record Section named "Homepage" with a field named "title" wich in this example is supposed to display the Title of the Homepage, and on the same page you have a MultiRecord List named "Articles" with a field named "title" aswell and now you do a search query in a form like "title,content_query", which transmits the query by url the returning page does ignore the single record "title" and every other single record from that section (!) and only displays the field "title" from the MultiRecord Section "Articles".

I guess it happnes, because in the search query "title,content_query" do no further precise definition, which one of all the sections should be searched. (I have more than one) so the viewer_functions.php somehow just ignores all single record entries, when building the output variables cause the first field "title" from the singleRecord "Homepage" did conflict with "title" from the multiRecord Section "Articles"

Writing down this I am wondering anyway, why I can not define which section is ment to be searched ina search query, to avoid conflicts. (Or can I ? :-)

Cheers
Guido

Hi Guido,

Ok, Thanks. I think I have a better understanding. Try adding this option to your single record viewer code to tell it to ignore search terms:

'allowSearch' => false,

Let me know if that works for you.

Hi Dave

This did also not work, I tried every possible configuartion ....

And it really only happens in conjunction with a search query , otherwise the records are shown properly.

Cheers Guido

Hi Guido

The code Dave posted should actually work. Basically, it's telling the viewer to ignore the variables in your URL.

Could you post a copy of the page for me to take a look at?

Thanks!

Guido,

Actually, if you could email me the urls of the page in question, FTP details, and instructions how to reproduce the issue I could take a look at this for you. Email dave@interactivetools.com. Email, don't post login details to the forum.

Hope that helps!
