UseSameContentFolderForRelatedSiteMode

Version 2.3.9.9 made possible to configure all sites of a multisite "relatedsites" installation to use the same media folder for user uploads by adding this setting as true: <add key="UseSameContentFolderForRelatedSiteMode" value="true"/>

I found this setting very useful for a multiple site installation based on folder sites for different languages where all sites can now share the same images and document repository.

Unfortunately I noticed that editing a page content in a (sub)folder site would also affect the editor HTML link browse function for pages of the same site: instead of browsing the current (sub)folder site for pages to link, it browses the related site page hierarchy.

This is reasonable for me but it generates confusion for content editors which do not necessarily understand the platform architecture.

Is there's any additional settings to treat the "\pages" virtual subfolder in order to point to the current site instead of the related site ?

Thanks

Diego

Re: UseSameContentFolderForRelatedSiteMode

Hi Diego,

Thanks for the bug report, this was definitely an unintended side effect of that setting. I will fix it today so it will be fixed in the new release coming soon.

Best,

Joe

Re: UseSameContentFolderForRelatedSiteMode

Hi Diego,

I just tried to create this problem on my local machine with folder sites and related sites mode but it seems to work correctly for me. I add the setting and now site 2 uses /Data/Sites/1 as the starting folder for files. Using the browse button for a link when I expand the "Pages" node it correctly shows the pages for site 2 not site 1.

So I am not able to validate this as a bug. If it showed the pages for the wrong site I would consider that a bug, but for me it shows the correct pages (though I am testing with the latest code so possibly it was a bug that is already fixed but I do not remember ever seeing this bug).

Best,

Joe
