Skip to content link is incorrect when using VHM

[nateaune]

When I use Virtual Host Monster (VHM) to create a subsite within Plone (i.e. winnie.jazkarta.com), the link that gets created for the "Skip to content" appears to be incorrect.

If I use Lynx to go to  http://winnie.jazkarta.com and select the "Skip to content" link, I get this error:

AttributeError: VirtualHostBase

This is from the HTML source:

<a class="hiddenStructure"

href=" http://winnie.jazkarta.com/VirtualHostBase/http/winnie.jazkarta.com:80/search#documentContent">Skip to content</a>

This is from lines 50-52 in skins/plone_templates/main_template.pt:

<a class="hiddenStructure"

tal:attributes="href string:${current_page_url}#documentContent" i18n:translate="label_skiptocontent">Skip to content</a>

This is from skins/plone_templates/global_defines.pt:

current_page_url request/VIRTUAL_URL|string:${request/SERVER_URL}${request/PATH_TRANSLATED};

If you are running a later version of Zope, you could try substituting the definition with 'request/ACTUAL_URL' instead of the long definition with three fallbacks. ACTUAL_URL was introduced to fix this use case - please report back if it solved your problem.

Zope 2.7.4 is the first version with ACTUAL_URL support, btw.

I tried replacing the code in main_template.pt with::

<a class="hiddenStructure"

tal:attributes="href string:${request/ACTUAL_URL}#documentContent" i18n:translate="label_skiptocontent">Skip to content</a>

But it gave a KeyError. Then I saw your followup that Zope 2.7.4 is required for support of ACTUAL_URL. Unfortunately, I am still running 2.7.3 so I haven't been able to verify that this indeed solves the problem.

Patch to remove 'current_page_url' -- use ACTUAL_URL instead.
