Permalinks 1.09 Released

Hi Jeff,

I've created an implementation for adding slashes to the generated permalinks. It will require updating permalinks.php in a few places.

First, find the _permalink_generate_getInputText() function - it should be roughly lines 114-129 and looks like this:

// merge input text from one or more input fields, return blank if no populated field combinations or fields found
function _permalink_generate_getInputText($recordOrRequest) {

...

}

Replace the entire function with the following:

// merge input text from one or more input fields, return blank if no populated field combinations or fields found
function _permalink_generate_getInputText($recordOrRequest) {
  
  foreach ($GLOBALS['PERMALINKS']['autopopulate_fromFields'] as $spaceSeparatedFieldSet) {
  
    $inputText = __permalinks_generate_validateFieldSet($recordOrRequest, $spaceSeparatedFieldSet, array(' ', '/'));
    
    if (empty( $inputText )) { continue; } // skip if one or more fields not defined

    // stop after first valid
    break;
  }
  
  return $inputText;
}

// recursively splits out and validates fieldsets based on an array of delimeters
function __permalinks_generate_validateFieldSet( $recordOrRequest, $fieldString, $delimeters ) {
  
  // if no delimeter, stop recursing and check for field in request
  if (empty( $delimeters )) {
    
      if (!array_key_exists($fieldString, $recordOrRequest)) { return false; } // skip if field not defined
      return $recordOrRequest[$fieldString]; // return field value
      
  } else {
    
    $fieldValues = '';
    $delimeter = array_shift( $delimeters ); // get next delimeter, remove from array
    $fieldSet  = array_filter(explode( $delimeter, $fieldString )); // explode fields based on delimeter
    
    // loop through potential fields
    foreach ($fieldSet as $field) {
      
      // recursive call with new field string and reduced delimiter array
      $validatedField = __permalinks_generate_validateFieldSet( $recordOrRequest, $field, $delimeters );
      
      if (empty( $validatedField )) { return false; } // fail if any fields are invalid
      $fieldValues .= $validatedField . $delimeter;   // concatenate field values with delimeter
    }
    
    // remove trailing delimeters
    $fieldValues = rtrim($fieldValues, $delimeter);
  
    return $fieldValues;
    
  }
  
  return false;
  
}

Next, find the line that looks like this (it should be at or near line 206):

$permalinkText = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9\-\.\_]+/i', '', $permalinkText); // remove non-alphanumeric chars

And replace it with the following:

$permalinkText = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9\-\.\_\/]+/i', '', $permalinkText); // remove non-alphanumeric chars

With these changes, you should now be able to add values like "field1/field2" to autopopulate_fromFields.

I'd also like to note that this hasn't gone through the official plugin release QA, so I'd recommend first trying this out in a test environment if you're able. Let me know if you have any issues or questions!

Thanks,
