CiviCRM Content is not displayed inside template
November 21, 2013, 09:37:10 am
Very strange, and we can't figure it out. When you go to our Membership signup page:

http://www.mnsearch.org/membership/member-signup/

The CiviCRM form shows up just fine, exactly where we want it to, inside the box on our page. But if you hit contribute (you don't even need to fill anything out) it forwards to a url with some variable

http://www.mnsearch.org/membership/member-signup/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/contribute/transact

Which I assume is normal. The abnormal part is on this second page, the CiviCRM content is displayed above our template. You have to see it to actually see what I'm describing. I'm assuming what's happening is there's some javascript that's telling the CiviCRM code where to append itself, and it's not working.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

i'm not sure how/where u get the string "membership/member-signup"

i would get civi to work on your base page, ie.

http://www.mnsearch.org/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/contribute/transact&reset=1&id=1

once you are happy with that flow, then you can create a civi frontend page and set it here:

http://wordpress.demo.civicrm.org/wp-admin/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/admin/setting/uf&reset=1

and stick to using just one string. Civi is a bit picky about the url name/structure

I just created a page and put the shortcode in that page. That's easy enough to do, as it should be since shortcode functionality is supported. But then why doesn't the civi code remain in the template after I hit contribute.

I've attempted to set up the base page, but can't get it to work correctly. Civi is frustrating and slow. I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually, but I thought maybe someone else had this issue and could help correct it easily.

PS: what's with having to enter 3 different captcha questions just to post a reply when I'm already logged in here?

i dont think civi deal with WP permanlinks in a very nice manner and that might be causing the issue.

can you try switching to the default permanlinks: http://wp/?p=123

and see if that works better. We would love for some WP developers to help us figure out and improve in the way we handle WP permanlinks. We have not figured out (as yet) how to work with all the different combinations of wp permalinks and hence the issues (i think)

I cannot replicate that on your demo site, but then again, I cannot load my Theme into that site either to see if there's an issue there.

So the reason the page was displaying the CiviCRM code outside the template was because on that particular page I was using the shortcode. When it went to process the form, it was using that same page template, so it was duplicating the form on that page, which appears to confuse the heck out of CiviCRM. This is definitely a bug that should be looked into I think. Otherwise why would you offer the ability to use the shortcode to put the form on the page only to have it screw up, because you are using the shortcode?

Anyhow, I updated the page manually in the wordpress.php (civicrm\civicrm\CRM\Utils\System\WordPress.php) to this

Code: [Select]
   
if ((is_admin() && !$frontend) || $forceBackend) {
      $base .= 'wp-admin/admin.php';
    }
    else {
      $base .= 'membership/';
    }

So now it works at least. I just have to use this ugly url:

http://www.mnsearch.org/membership/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/contribute/transact&reset=1&id=1

any chance u can research this a bit more and submit a generic patch that works for all WP instances (i.e. does not hardcode your short url: membership)

i think u use the shortcode to display the inital page. all future pages are done under the civi url
