Hi, I'm a newbie here... For one of my customers I'm developing a web shop based on Nop.
One of the requirements is to provide aftersales support for the products sold (e.g. registering serial numbers for warranty, some IoT functionality,...). There's thus a need to add menu-entries so the custom routes from the plugin can be triggered.
I was looking at implementing a Topic page with it's own Topic Template, this offers the possibility to add entries to sitemap, top menu, and in all 3 columns of the footer. I do not need the 'body' functionality (left empty), only a link to my plugin pages. As a system name of the Topic Page, I used EEPC_MyRadiators/EEPC_Manage, which is the page in my EEPC_MyRadiators plugin I want to call. Unfortunately the system does not like the '/' and strips it off before putting it in the UrlRecord database table. I changed it in the DB itself and all started working...
However each time I edit the Topic page, the entry is reset (new row created in dbo.UrlRecord without '/', old dbo.UrlRecord row invalidated by setting the IsActive to false).
I was wondering why the slash is removed as it would be a perfect way to implement a 'Topic link' as apposed to a 'Topic page'.
Am I overlooking something here?
