Urls in Asana are of the form https://app.asana.com/0/{UNKNOWN_ID}/{TASK_ID}
What is UNKNOWN_ID? Is that in the documentation somewhere (I look, but couldn't find anything).
You can actually try for yourself what happens if you leave off the last part of the URL - it takes you to the project (or tag, or search) that the task was in, but not the specific task. So, normally, the "UNKNOWN_ID" is the ID of the project or tag you're viewing.

a month ago i relaunched a Website in Typo3 CMS. Before that, the site was hosted with Joomla CMS.
In Joomla Config, SEO Links were disabled, so Google indexed the Page Urls this:
www.domain.de/index.php?com_component&itemid=123....
for example.
Now, a month later (after the Typo3 Relaunch), these Links are still visible in Google because the Urls don't return a 404-Error. That's because "index.php" also exists on Typo3 and Typo3 doesnt care about the additional query string/variables - it returns a 200 status code and shows the front page.
In Google Webmaster Tools it's possible to delete single Urls from the Google Index, but that way i have to delete about 10000 Urls manually...
My Question is: Is there a way to remove these old Urls from the Google Index?
Greetings
With this amount of URL's there is only one sensible solution, implement the proper 404 handling in your TYPO3, or even better redirections to same content placed in TYPO3.
You can use TYPO3's handler (search for it in Install Tool > All configuration) it's called pageNotFound_handling, you can use options like REDIRECT for redirecting to some page or even USER_FUNCTION, which allow you to use own PHP script, check the description in the Install Tool.
You can also write a simple condition in TypoScript and check if Joomla typical params exists in the URL - so that easy way you can return custom 404 page. If it's important to you to make more sophisticated condition (for an example, you want to redirect links which previously pointed to some gallery in Joomla, to new gallery in TYPO3) you can make usage of userFunc condition and that would be probably best option for SEO
If these urls contain an acceptable number of common indicators, you could redirect these links with a rule in your virtual host or .htaccess so that google will run into the correct error message.
I wrote a google chrome extension to remove urls in bulk in google webmaster tools. Check it out here: https://github.com/noitcudni/google-webmaster-tools-bulk-url-removal.
Basically, it's a glorified for loop. You put all the urls in a text file. For example,
http://your-domain/link-1
http://your-domain/link-2
Having installed the extension as described in the README, you'll find a new "choose a file" button.
Select the file you just created. The extension reads it in, loops thru all the urls and submits them for removal.
I'm trying to make my site more SEO friendly and I' noticing that whenever I go to an product through either a tag or a different page (2,3,4 ect) that it adds it to the URL.
For example:
www.wisdomsurvival.com/Guardian-Survival-kit/culinary-can-of-preparedness-seeds.html?page=2
I would like to remove ?page=2 from the path
Opencart 1.5.4
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: My main goal is to have one URL for each page instead of multiple paths. For example:
http://www.wisdomsurvival.com/person-guardian-preparedness-package-camping-bug-out
http://www.wisdomsurvival.com/camping-and-bug-out/person-guardian-preparedness-package-camping-bug-out
The first URL is a direct link, the second comes from clicking from a category, the third (not shown because I can only post 2 links) comes from clicking from a subcategory and the fourth (also not shown) from a manufacturer list.
I need to have them all either redirect to the first URL or just go directly to the first URL without redirecting, along with any other URLS such as the ones that have the page ID path or tag path.
I recognise that theme :-)
Where is the ?page=2 coming from as the link works perfectly without it. You need to trace the source of the link. First try the template views and see if it is a simple link edit in the layout that will accomplish what you need.
If not you may find the information is coded in the controller if it is being dynamically generated. Again you should be able to edit the code that generates the link there.
If not you may find that it is in a model that is being called. Again, just find the model and edit the link structure you find there.
The url on your page will only be a reflection of the url you generated somewhere else in order for the link to be followed in the first place.
Usually when I am building with opencart I find the theme modules are often not coded very well in terms of SEO. Fortunately with opencart these things are usually very easy to remedy.
Top trick -> I often stick additional bits into my urls that have no impact on the page generated but Google picks up on as keywords anyway.
If you post your code if you are having problems reformatting the link formats I will have a look for you,
Hope that helps,
Paul.
I have a strange problem in one Joomla website.
If i access from homepage and then navigate into the site it works correct, but if i go in some internal page from google results it shows uncorrect page layout, because the url is not correct.
This is the correct url
Correct page from homepage
and this the uncorrect url that Google finds Uncorrect page from Google
in this second page is showed rating module (that i never used) instead of an article, as you can see in links.
Someone can help me?
EDIT: I'm using Joomla 2.5 version. Every menu item is category blog type, and must show all articles of one category. Each category have 2 articles. In the uncorrect link seems that it access to single article, adding the rating that i have hidden in each article
Which version are you using?
if you can turn on SEF option in the global settings in joomla admin. Then you need to make sure all your articles are in menus. then if you link them on different pages it should keep the url the same.
The way you have it at the moment with all the x=123&... get params pages will show for what ever ids you change the menu to.
The reason you are seeing an uncorrect layout is the two different Itemid parameters (the right url has 127 while the wrong one has 104). The rest of the difference in the urls will be ignored by Joomla.
Solution: Find your menu item with id 104 (look at the menu ids on the right of the menu items view), then check which modules appear on the page from there. There may be modules in non-visible positions.
One of these modules is publishing the links with the wrong ids. If it's a Joomla core (like a search module) you can usually force the Itemid either in the module or in the component's configuration. Else you need to fixsome third party code.
Only once you have solved the multiple-itemid should you turn on SEF, otherwise you'd get the same problem only more difficult to trace.
sh404 could help you with this, I'd give it a try on a test site to see if it gets you out of trouble faster.
I would like to hide the webpage name in the url and only display either the domain name or parts of it.
For example:
I have a website called "MyWebSite". The url is: localhost:8080/mywebsite/welcome.xhtml. I would like to display only the "localhost:8080/mywebsite/".
However if the page is at, for example, localhost:8080/mywebsite/restricted/restricted.xhtml then I would like to display localhost:8080/mywebsite/restricted/.
I believe this can be done in the web.xml file.
I believe that you want URL rewriting. Check out this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rewrite_engine - there are many approaches to URL rewriting, you need to decide what is appropriate for you. Some of the approaches do make use of the web.config file.
You can do this in several ways. The one I see most is to have a "front door" called a rewrite engine that parses the URL dynamically to internally redirect the request, without exposing details about how that might happen as you would see if you used simple query strings, etc. This allows the URL you specify to be digested into a request for a master page with specific content, instead of just looking up a physical page at that location to serve.
The StackExchange sites do this so that you can link to a question in a semi-permanent fashion (and thus can use search engines with crawlers that log these URLs) without them having to have a real page in the file system for every question that's ever been asked (we're up to 9,387,788 questions as of this one).
I'm having a hard time finding out where to start with this one. I pull information from an external website and put some of the content on my page. I think I need two things done. 1. A google search that takes the url of the top search given a name of my current object. 2. A way to examine the source of the result and output the information of a tag with a specific class.
To better explain this, I'll create a hypothetical situation: Say I have a website that lists mattresses and gives reviews. Say I want to add other websites reviews and in this website there's a tag like 3.5/5. Then I want to display this review along with a link to the external page. Is there a way to search the site like "site:http://mattressreviewsite/ #matress.name", pull that top url, and then search the source for the string "class='rating'" and display this in my view?
Thanks for any help or guidance. I'm using Rails 3.
You need an HTTP client (httparty, net/http-default) for that and do some parsing to get the required results.
Go study the url patterns of google (as far as I remember it was google.com?q=search_string) and use the http client for requests (get/post). Parse the result (there are many HTML parser gems available too) to get what you need and for any subsequent HTTP requests. And don't forget the 'I am feeling lucky' feature of google which returns only one result.
All the best!
