# Feb 17th 2020, 22:30 ndm @k4t When your custom route is asked to do the matching, the first connected route will fail, as it doesn't match the `action`, but since you do not account for that case, and append `/` to whatever `parent::match()` returns, the matching will always be "successful" for the outside world, as the method will always return a string (`false . '/'` equals `/`).
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:26 challgren Im just throwing ideas out at this time
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:26 challgren Kind of how the pages example is https://github.com/cakephp/app/blob/master/config/routes.php#L70
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:26 challgren What about replacing the slug with *?
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:25 ndm The route catching basically everything would be a perfect explanation for the behavior that you described
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:25 ndm I'd say you probably have _additional_ problems, not that the route isn't responsible for the initial problem
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:25 k4t well it will work, but to build correct parameters I will have to add a bit more logic to the code and I wanted to avoid that
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:23 k4t I think that soething is wrong when request contain passed parameters (in my example this is slug)
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:23 challgren Ok since you used a _name what about using that in the link?
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:22 k4t but generally u r right, I should add logic for "false"
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:21 k4t url is still generated wrong
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:21 k4t and I think this is not the problem here, as when I remove my custom Route class from routes
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:21 k4t with one exception - it will add '/' at the end
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:21 k4t my route should do exactly what CakePhP DashedRoute is doing
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:18 ndm @k4t You do not account for non-matching URLs, `parent::match()` can return `false`
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:17 k4t looks like I have to build urls manually ;/
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:16 ndm Well, I don't know what to say about that, I'd have to dig up the discussion in Github. Looking at how `Router::parseRequest()` and `Router::reverseToArray()` return the query arguments in `?`, I'm not sure if I should trust the docs.
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:11 challgren @ndm “Router will also convert any unknown parameters in a routing array to querystring parameters. The ? is offered for backwards compatibility with older versions of CakePHP.”
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:10 k4t oO
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:10 k4t when I remove customer route class and I am on page "/meine-ausgaben/abcd" then HTMLHelper will give me "/my-editions/view?t=test"
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:05 k4t here u can see how routes r defined
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:05 k4t https://gist.github.com/K4T/b8f34b86138d2149e25329e6427b93eb
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:03 challgren Like @ndm said it might be your route connection
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:03 k4t that is what I wanted to ommit
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:02 challgren You might need to specify your action then
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:02 k4t @challgren both gave the same results
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:01 challgren 4.x docs have `echo $this->Html->link(‘View image’, [ ‘controller’ => ‘Images’, ‘action’ => ‘view’, 1, ‘?’ => [‘height’ => 400, ‘width’ => 500] ]);`
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:01 ndm I'm not really sure, I just vaguely remember the back and forth about
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:00 challgren Ohh it might be
# Feb 17th 2020, 22:00 ndm I thought that was deprecated that in favor of explicitly using `?`?
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:57 challgren @k4t it should be <?= $this->Html->link(‘E-Paper’, [‘t’ => ‘test’]); ?>
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:56 ndm What's the connected route for that?
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:55 k4t :S
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:55 k4t it is a bit funny thing because when I am on "/meine-ausgaben" it will generate "/meine-ausgaben?t=test" but when I am on: "/meine-ausgaben/abc" it will generate "/"
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:54 ndm Generally that should work I think.
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:52 k4t <?= $this->Html->link('E-Paper', ['?' => ['t' => 'test']]); ?> this gives me "/" even if I am not on the "/" page
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:51 k4t @ndm do you have idea how I can append query string to current url in the view with HTML helper?
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:45 ndm you're welcome
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:44 k4t thats true
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:43 FunkadelicRelic Also - gotta say, slightly off topic but this is the most helpful forum/community I think I've ever used. I really appreciate your help. Thank you.
# Feb 17th 2020, 21:42 FunkadelicRelic Cool, thanks @ndm - I'll look into the beforeMarshal callback - I used that previously for something else so figured it might be the way to go.
