    Hi all !
     

    I'm playing with the XSL/XML module because I want to do this: when a search engine sends a user to a page that doesn't exist anymore or doesn't exist on my site, I want to retrieve the name of the page he got, ex. "https://www.jeretapeunemi...in/mini-kesako"

    I know how to reread the "sitemap.xml" file and display its content...

    I want to retrieve the value "mini-kesako" and display the corresponding url obtained from the "sitemap.xml" file.
    e.g. https://www.jeretapeunemi...tin/mini/mini-kesako

    As much as I know how to retrieve the value with a FnL module (cf. FnL | 404), I don't know how to do it with the XML module.

    Maybe by passing values in "XSL Parameters" but I can't get anything...

    I've searched the internet extensively but I can't find anything.

    If anyone can help me, that would be great.

    I'm sorry, but I can't find anything,

    David

        did you check the documentation (https://github.com/DNNCom...2_User_Manual.docx)?
        (Yes, I know, it is very brief, but contains a short explanation of this feature as well). Be aware that you need a key/value pair for each URL parameter, yuo want to use. Just subfolder parts of the URL will not work.

          Thanks Sebastian!
          I have to say that I completely missed this "documentation"... which doesn't really help on the use of "XSL parameters".

          While searching, I came across this post: https://www.dnnsoftware.c...rl-parameters-failed

          The author explains that it's because of a bad configuration of the parameters.

          She says that "Name" should be the parameter in the XSL and "value" the parameter in the URL...

          I understand that:
          Name: "xmlParameter" should be "P"
          Data Origin: Pass-Through QueryString
          Value: "p" should be "1"

          Right ?

            as far as I understand, the parameter name and value in XML settings are just for filtering to prevent the module running outside of context.
            You need to retrieve your query string params yourself from context URL, see .e.g. https://stackoverflow.com...string-value-in-xslt and https://stackoverflow.com...lue-as-xsl-parameter
