[#6370] SEO URL of userlists mixed up by chance was created by Onkel Tom
Hello,
I use CB 2.1.0 in Joomla 3.6.5. All CB Plugins are up to date with the latest Version.
I have published three userlists on the website. They can be accessed via a menu item / CB Menu Item Userslist : index.php?option=com_comprofiler&view=userslist&searchmode=0
Let us say the lists have those names:
List-ALPHA
List-BETA
List-GAMMA
When clicking on the menu item for displaying the userslist it starts with the default list, in this case it is List-ALPHA.
Now you can choose another list with the list selector on the upper right side. Doing so, the chosen list is displayed and the URL changes like this:
https://url-to-website/cb-profile/userslist/LISTID-List-ALPHA.html
LISTID is the ID of the specific list in CB.
OK, this is seo-friendly and could be linked for direct access to the list. Therefore I would expect the behaviour of the URLs to be like that:
I choose List-BETA, then the URL changes to: https://url-to-website/cb-profile/userslist/LISTID-List-BETA.html
I choose List-GAMMA, then the URL changes to: https://url-to-website/cb-profile/userslist/LISTID-List-GAMMA.html
But this is not the case! The URL mixes the list names up by chance and the list name in the URL has nothing to do with the list actually displayed.
It is like that:
I choose List-ALPHA, then the URL changes to: https://url-to-website/cb-profile/userslist/LISTID-List-GAMMA.html
I choose List-BETA, then the URL changes to: https://url-to-website/cb-profile/userslist/LISTID-List-ALPHA.html
I choose List-GAMMA, then the URL changes to: https://url-to-website/cb-profile/userslist/LISTID-List-BETA.html
Thus it is not possible to set a direct link to a list, because it will show the wrong list.
What do I have to do to get this fixed ?
Regards
Tom

That's due to the list changer actually posting the userlist form. This behavior needs to be changed so it's an actual window location change and not a form post. Have added a bug ticket to look into fixing as will need some JS to handle the changing.

This won't hurt or help your SEO rankings regardless as the crawlers aren't going to POST the form and will never see this problem, but for the enduser it can be confusing.

Hello Kyle,

It has not been fixed yet. It is not a high priority at this time has it has no negative SEO impact and is a UX issue. We'll update the forge ticket once a fix has been proposed. Crawlers will not post the form so they will never crawl those URLs.
