#33920 closed defect (bug) (fixed)

`wp_old_slug_redirect` ignores rewrite endpoints

Reported by: swissspidy's profile swissspidy Owned by: pento's profile pento
Milestone: 4.4 Priority: normal
Severity: normal Version: 2.1
Component: Query Keywords: has-patch

Description

For the oEmbed feature plugin we're adding an embed rewrite endpoint to posts, to have URLs like http://example.com/my-post/embed/

However, when the slug changes from my-post to new-post, wp_old_slug_redirect redirects to http://example.com/new-post/, ignoring the endpoint.

The function should check for such query vars / endpoints in the process.

Additionally, a filter for the resulting URL in this function would be helpful for developers.

  • Keywords needs-unit-tests added

I like it.

While it's kind of hacky, we could add unit tests using the new old_slug_redirect_url filter - hook into the filter, verify that the URL is correct, then return false to short circuit before the wp_redirect().

#5 @swissspidy

  • Keywords needs-refresh added

The new patch adds unit tests using the method you suggested.

While testing I noticed that WordPress doesn't properly redirect feed URLs, even with the patch applied.

/old-slug/feed/ doesn't redirect to /new-slug/feed/ but instead shows a feed for a non-existent post.

This is because feeds and trackbacks are pretty much hardcoded and not added via add_rewrite_endpoint.

New patch also fixes feeds.

Unit tests are passing when they're run by themselves, but not when they're run as part of the full suite.

Thanks.

Fixed in 33920.4.diff by setting up everything in setUp / tearDown.

#9 @swissspidy

33920.5.diff now properly respects custom endpoints with a different query var.

#10 @pento

I haven't tested it, what happens with attachment URLs?

Either way, it'd be nice to have a unit test for it.

#11 @swissspidy

This doesn't change behaviour for attachments, as they already seem to work properly. Perhaps because of redirect_canonical.

In WP_Query name is set to the attachment slug, so wp_old_slug_redirect has no effect.

I added a test for it in 33920.6.diff anyway, and also tested this with paginated posts.

See also #34043 for implementing old slug redirects for attachments.

  • Owner set to pento
  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

In 34659:

Rewrite: When redirecting old slugs, include URL endpoints.

Historically, wp_old_slug_redirect() has only ever redirected the old slug of posts, it hasn't included URL endpoints, or worked with comment feed URLs. By adding support for these, we ensure a greater range of URLs aren't killed when the slug changes.

Props swissspdy.

Fixes #33920.

@pento: What about the unit test from 33920.6.diff?

#15 @pento

They all look like they're there to me? (Changeset view doesn't show new files in the diff, only in the file list.)
