FURLs Ignoring Parent Resource

Hi,

I have FURLs turned on, but am running into an issue.

-The child resource is also a container with nothing after it (only way I can get the .html to be left off and work)

-Instead of the following which I want:
mysite dot com/parent/child (gives a 404)

-I am getting;
mysite dot com/child

This is not my main site on my server. It’s the second domain I’ve registered and am now using.

Revo 2.7.3

Rewrite www.example.com -> example.com – used with SEO Strict URLs plugin

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.(.)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.
)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

The Friendly URLs part

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]

Do you have the use_alias_path System Setting turned on?

Thanks Bob. Yes, all the standard ones are turned on.

Is the checkbox ‘Use current alias in alias path’ in the parent resource checked?
Maybe it is the same problem as in this thread https://community.modx.com/t/friendly-urls-issue-with-url/1694

Winner! Thank you Harry.

It was not checked of. Appreciate you and Bob.

Just to address this point in your question: if you want the .html to be left off and not have to define “leaf” pages as containers, just suppress the file extension for the HTML content type in “Content” > “Content types” in the manager:

Further than this, you may want to consider turning friendly_alias_realtime to yes, so that users can immediately see the alias which is going to be generated and manually adjust it if needed ?
