Bug: RefByMatchesUnrelatedEntries

See Test Case. The search expression generated by ref-by seems to be incorrect in the case that a WikiWord ends in a number.

Test case

  1. Create a page: TestPage1? with the text TestPage1?
  2. Create a page: TestPage11? with the text TestPage11?
  3. Visit TestPage1? and click "ref-by"
  4. Notice that TestPage11? shows in the list
  5. Visit TestPage11? and click "ref-by"
  6. Notice that TestPage11? is not in the list

Follow up

This can be fixed by changing the file view.tmpl, adding a 0-9 to the end of the regular expression.

The Ref-By link should read

"%SCRIPTURLPATH%/search%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%WEB%/SearchResult?scope=text&regex=on&search=%SPACEDTOPIC%%5B%5EA-Za-z0-9%5D"

Fix record

Fix is in Subversion now.

Other fixes (too busy to create new bug reports for fixes done):

  • The search results now don't list the topic itself
  • Search is going through all webs instead of the topic's own web

The new link in the view templates is now:

&lt;a href="%<nop>SCRIPTURLPATH%/search%<nop>SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%<nop>WEB%/SearchResult?scope=text&amp;regex=on&amp;web=all&amp;excludetopic=%<nop>TOPIC%&amp;search=%<nop>SPACEDTOPIC%%5B%5EA-Za-z0-9%5D"&gt;

But now a new bug has come to light. The new bug's title is still this topic's title. See extended report below:

The spaced topic RegEx gives a lot of wrong results

Search results give back a load of results that are not related to the topic.

Test case

Follow up

The simple solution would be to remove the spaced topic search. But I think the search should look for actual urls, not the way these appear on the page.

We can't eaily get rid of spaced topic ref-bu search since a [[foo bar]] link points to FooBar.

Removing it from Cairo.
