Hi guys,
I'm looking to use Admin Tools features to solve a need on AcyMailing 6, let me recap:
--- AcyMailing 6 has the Insert Dynamic Text feature that by adding a {readonline}blabla{/readonline} tag transform it into a "view it online" link to add into the newsletters that are sent to the users
--- the created link is something like: https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/5-promesa-cumplida?userid=2-zlqQJFUg9oKdXi&tmpl=component

I have no knowledge on htaccess RewriteEngine, Please,
1 - Is there a way to always cut the &tmpl=component from URLs ?
2 - Is there a way to do it just when the URL is from the AcyMailing 6: https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/...
3 - Is there a way to hide the /component/acym/archive/ part like: https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/... > https://mysite.com/...
4 - And/Or Is there a way to replace the URLs with another like: https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/5-promesa-cumplida?userid=2-zlqQJFUg9oKdXi&tmpl=component > https://mysite.com/services/mailing/promesa-cumplida
5 - and to replace it with one URL for all the URLs users:
--- https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/5-promesa-cumplida?userid=2-zlqQJFUg9oKdXi&tmpl=component > https://mysite.com/services/mailing/promesa-cumplida
--- https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/5-promesa-cumplida?userid=3-zlqQJFUg9oKdXi&tmpl=component > https://mysite.com/services/mailing/promesa-cumplida
--- https://mysite.com/component/acym/archive/5-promesa-cumplida?userid=4-zlqQJFUg9oKdXi&tmpl=component > https://mysite.com/services/mailing/promesa-cumplida
etc.

Hello,

I'm sorry but these are changes that can only be performed on AcyMailing component.
The .htaccess file can only handle the incoming URL, not its generation. For example, you can redirect all the URL from http://example.com to http://www.example.com . Please note that this is a redirect: it means that the first URL arrives to your server, the .htaccess file kicks in and then redirects the visitor to the other URL.

From what I see, I can only suggest you to get in touch with AcyMailing support, since these are things regarding their component.

Hi Davide,
thanks for your quick reply and sorry for my English, if you want I can write in Italian (without your permission I will continue in English as a form of education to third parties who read).
"The .htaccess file can only handle the incoming URL, not its generation" = Yes, I'm speaking about the incoming URLs requests from the email sent by AcyMailing, not about the link generation during the email creation with AcyMailing.

What I thought was that the Admin Tools Pro features: htaccess maker, by using the mod_rewrite apache (and my be something with the URL rewriter), could be useful for it...
https://www.ionos.it/digitalguide/hosting/tecniche-hosting/che-cose-il-rewrite-engine/

Logically, as you wrote, this is not the optimal solution while the best one would be to work on AcyMailing link creation.
But could be a quick and practical solution or now, till some (ar all) the modifications will be integrated directly into AcyMailing...

Please, Any type of help, suggestion, on the point I wrote would be really too appreciated...

I'm sorry but that's not possible, since changing the URL will affect the behavior of AcyMailing, since it will be looking for some params that are missing in the request:
  1. No. The tmplP=component has a very special meaning in Joomla. Removing it will completely change the output
  2. No
  3. This happens because Joomla doesn't find a menu entry for such URL, so instead of having a "nice" URL, you have a /component/ one. This can't be fixed by using .htaccess, but modifying your site settings (if AcyMailing provides a menu entry for such link)
  4. No. Such param is required by AcyMailing to work correctly (I suspect to track the hits)


As you can see, there's nothing we can do, since everything is related to AcyMailing.
