We find we have to go in and edit the article and click save then it returns.

Any insight as to why this is happening?

Just an FYI.. I used the code to set the startid and it appeared to work but yesterday morning the article disappeared again so I commented out the code as you suggested as an alternative. As of right now the article is still published.

I'll monitor for a few days and if it appears stable I'll close this out as solved.

thank you again.

I'll give those options a try! I truly appreciate the help.

if ($alias && $startPageId == $archiveId) {


It's throwing an error because, as far as I can tell, $startPageId is never set. This may or may not be the cause of your issue.

The first thing I'd try is putting this line just above the problem line in the core/components/articles/model/articles/articlesrouter.class.php file.

$startPageId = 12; // change 12 to the ID of your first article


If that doesn't work, you can eliminate the error by commenting out this section:

if ($alias && $startPageId == $archiveId) {
    $startPageResId = $archiveId;
    if (isset($archive[1])) $startPagePrefix = $archive[1];
}


Like this:

/* 
if ($alias && $startPageId == $archiveId) {
    $startPageResId = $archiveId;
    if (isset($archive[1])) $startPagePrefix = $archive[1];
}
*/


Since $startPageId is never set, it's unlikely to equal $archiveId, so the code it probably not executing anyway.

Is there anything in the MODX error logs?

What version of PHP is the site running on?


Hi Andy

PHP Version 7.1.8

I see this in the error log but have to admit ignorance as to what it means:

[2019-03-08 16:10:26] (WARN @ /opt/rh/httpd24/root/var/www/html/www.XXXXXXX.com/www/core/components/articles/model/articles/articlesrouter.class.php : 65) PHP notice: Undefined variable: startPageId

Thanks!,

Are you using any caching services, like Cloudflare, or caching facilities on your server other than the built in MODX cache? If you are could any of these be mis-behaving and reverting back to previous versions of the site?

Is the vanishing article the latest article? Or have others been written more recently that are not having this problem?

Hi Andy,

No additional cache services and this article at the time is the only article.
